2.1 Product description

The Cisco ThousandEyes Cloud Service is a suite of cloud services designed to help you measure and monitor the availability and performance of web applications, hosted services, and networks.

The ThousandEyes internet and cloud intelligence platform expands visibility, insights, and action into digital delivery of applications and services over the internet and cloud. ThousandEyes enables organizations to visualize any network as if it was their own, quickly surface actionable insights, and collaborate and solve problems with service providers.

2.2 Editions

ThousandEyes provides a SaaS-based service. Customers contract to pay for x units on a monthly basis, with a minimum contract length of 12 months

Cisco ThousandEyes Network and Application Synthetics

Enterprise Agents probe your network at regular intervals to determine the health of your infrastructure and network devices and the performance of key applications. Enterprise Agents simulate network layer traffic destined to TCP or UDP ports or application layer traffic that simulates real browsing sessions or phone calls. In parallel, Enterprise Agents also probe network devices within the WAN to collect interface metrics such as throughput, errors, and discards. With Enterprise Agents you can understand the performance of on-premises and SaaS applications across any network segment while visualizing the impact of network device health on application performance. Enterprise Agents are available as software appliances for virtualized environments, packages for Linux distributions, or containers for use with Docker. They are most commonly installed in branch sites and data centers to provide a detailed understanding of the WAN, LAN topology, network devices, and internet connectivity.

Cisco ThousandEyes End User Monitoring

ThousandEyes End User Monitoring delivers both on-demand and real-time visibility into each employee’s experience of SaaS and internally hosted applications, as well as underlying wireless LAN, WAN, internet connectivity, and system health. This empowers your network and IT teams to quickly troubleshoot performance issues related to Wi-Fi, bandwidth capacity, ISP routing, VPN gateways, SaaS availability, and other sources while measuring web page load times and other key performance indicators.

End User Monitoring licenses come in two tiers – Advantage and Essentials.

Cisco ThousandEyes Connected Devices

ThousandEyes Connected Devices enhances visibility for Service Providers and Enterprises into the last mile of the network. By monitoring a consumer’s home gateway and other internet-connected devices, Customer Care teams can pinpoint issues more precisely. This capability allows them to determine whether a problem lies with the consumer’s device, their Wi-Fi, the broader internet, or the specific application they are trying to access. Additionally, this extended visibility provides macro insights into large groups of devices and networks, aiding in the identification and resolution of widespread issues.

Cisco ThousandEyes Cloud Insights

Cloud Insights automatically discovers cloud resources across your accounts, creating a full inventory of services that may impact the digital experiences of your end users. For teams with multiple AWS cloud accounts, this provides an account-agnostic layer to view your AWS resources.

The new Cloud Topology view provides service-level insight into infrastructure that is configured in your AWS account(s), and it is deeply integrated with other layers of the Network and Application Synthetics views—effectively stitching together an Internet-centric or private network Path Visualization complete with AWS cloud topology.

Cloud Insights also correlates configuration changes (and other operational or provider events) with application and network response times to help you pinpoint the source of issues faster. This capability addresses one of the most common causes of downtime: automated or user-inflicted configuration change that causes unintended consequences.

Additionally, Operations teams can now also use Cloud Insights to analyze user traffic flowing through their AWS network to instantly see a sudden increase (or decrease) in traffic, looking at VPC flow logs that are embedded in the Network and Application Synthetics views. This can help you reduce the time it takes for you to identify the root cause of an issue by offering a centralized view across cloud resources and troubleshooting domains, which enables you to quickly pivot to further action.

Users can also use a new, general purpose cloud-based VPC flow log analysis engine to aid in traffic discovery across regions, VPCs, or Internet egress. ThousandEyes’ new Cloud Insights Views provide filters to help users focus on a historical trend of traffic volume between any two entities in the cloud. Users can filter by AWS account, region, availability zone, subnet, AWS tags, and more.

For more information, please visit https://www.thousandeyes.com/product/cloud-insights/.

Cisco ThousandEyes Internet Insights

ThousandEyes leverages its global collective view of service delivery paths across the internet to provide a macro view of network outages, called Internet Insights. ThousandEyes agents located across the internet perform more than 8 billion measurements each day, yielding a massive data set that includes network interface-level information on when and where traffic flows are disrupted in the internet. Once Internet Insights detects outage behavior, it isolates it to an Autonomous System (AS) and location, and then visualizes it in near real time via a variety of global, macro, and topological views. Internet Insights enables operations teams to leverage anonymized internet telemetry data—rather than public rumor—to rapidly identify, escalate, and remediate issues, as well as communicate more effectively with customers. By visualizing and correlating outages to user experience and other signals, enterprises can dramatically reduce their Mean Time To Identify (MTTI) from hours to minutes.

For more information, please visit https://www.thousandeyes.com/product/internet-insights

2.3 Cisco ThousandEyes licensing model

ThousandEyes provides 4 flexible pricing methods based on your visibility needs.

ThousandEyes Units (also known as Test Units)

Test Units are available on a model that enables active monitoring for your network and applications from Cloud Agents, Enterprise Agents, and Device Agents. Units are consumed based on configuration of tests that run against Cloud, Enterprise, and Device Agents. Each time a test is run by either a Cloud, Enterprise, or Device Agent, a quantity of units will be consumed. A minimum of 1,500 units is required.

ThousandEyes Users for Endpoint Agents

ThousandEyes End User Monitoring is available on a per-user basis to provide end-user monitoring for on-demand and real-time visibility into each employee’s experience of SaaS and internally-hosted applications, as well as underlying wireless LAN, WAN, internet connectivity and system health. End User Monitoring is available in two tiers – Essentials and Advantage. Customers can purchase both licenses simultaneously and following minimums are applicable (1) 100+ users Advantage and 0 users Essentials, or (2) 80+ users Advantage and 50+ users Essentials, or (3) 20+ users Advantage and 200+ users Essentials, or (4) 0 users Advantage and 250+ users Essentials. Customers will be able to assign an End User Monitoring license to a specific EndPoint Agent from the ThousandEyes platform. Note that once an user license is assigned to an Endpoint Agent, the license cannot be assigned to a different Endpoint Agent for a 30 day period.

The licensing for ThousandEyes End User Monitoring follows a tiered pricing model: the pricing depends on the number of user licenses purchased. Sales and partner representatives should determine the correct sizing for each customer deployment so that the appropriate user count is selected. Cisco Commerce will dynamically determine the correct price associated with the user count entered.

ThousandEyes Connected Device Agents

Connected Device Agents is a per device license that enables last mile network monitoring for Enterprises and Service Providers. Customers must purchase a minimum of 250 Connected Device Agent licenses.

ThousandEyes Internet Insights

Internet Insights provides collective intelligence into the real-time health of the Internet at the macro level. Internet Insights is licensed based on packages that are categorized by provider type on one axis (ISP, CDN, DNS provider, IaaS, SECaaS and UCaaS) and geographic region on the other (North America, EMEA, APAC and LATAM). Each package represents provider type and region, for example Asia Pacific CDN Providers is one package. Customers can purchase up to 12 individual packages or upgrade to Global Insights Bundle, which includes all 28 packages.

ThousandEyes Cloud Insights

ThousandEyes Cloud Insights license enables functionality on ThousandEyes platform and comes in two tiers - Essentials or Advantage that are mutually exclusive (i.e. customers can only buy one or another). Customers cannot buy more than 1 quantity of the selected license tier and once provisioned it will provide customers with the ThousandEyes platform functionality matching the description of the tier.

ThousandEyes Cloud Insights can utilize ThousandEyes Units to run traffic flow analysis by defining Flows per Second (FPS). The cost is 1 FPS/m = 0.3 Units/m and customers can utilize a built in Cisco Commerce calculator to help translate the required FPS into the equivalent number of ThousandEyes Units. Note: the Cisco Commerce calculator overwrites the number of Units already entered, so if units are required for multiple purposes other than Cloud Insights then the process should be as follows

Enter the number of FPS required to note down the equivalent number of units

      Add the resulting number to the additional units required for other use cases

      Enter the new total into the quantity field for the ThousandEyes Units product

Note:      ThousandEyes Units are a universal currency within ThousandEyes and are not tied to a specific use case, each unit purchase can be used for any functionality within ThousandEyes that accepts Units for utilization.

3.3 Provisioning

ThousandEyes uses only the administrator email address included in the order to map it to an existing ThousandEyes organization, if one exists. The information of the person placing the order, or the Cisco Smart Account admin users, are not used to map orders to ThousandEyes organizations. If an existing ThousandEyes organization is not found, the system provisions a new ThousandEyes organization with the end user information provided in the order.

If the end customer already has a ThousandEyes user account, please skip to section 3.3.2. Otherwise proceed to section 3.3.1.

3.3.1 First-Time ThousandEyes Customers

All orders for first-time ThousandEyes customers require a purchaser to provide the following end customer information during order entry under Provision Details to properly provision a ThousandEyes account to the end customer, i.e. the person who will be the ThousandEyes administrator responsible for initially activating and accessing the new ThousandEyes account.

      End-customer administrator first name

      End-customer administrator last name

      End-customer administrator email address

*This email address must be correct in order for the administrator to receive their account activation email
*Failure to provide this information will delay the order provisioning process *

3.3.2 Existing ThousandEyes Customers

Orders for existing ThousandEyes customers are automatically linked to the customer’s existing ThousandEyes organization. Therefore, the end customer will not receive an activation email. The existing admin users in the organization are responsible for creating new users as needed.

If you believe you are a new ThousandEyes customer and should have received an activation email but didn’t, please contact support@thousandeyes.com as well as your associated ThousandEyes sales team.

3.3.3 All Customers

A Provisioning Contact Email is required in case the order provisioning details need to be added or modified. This email must be associated with a valid CCO ID with access to the order in CCW.

Region is required for provisioning purposes. For first-time ThousandEyes customers this would create an organization in the region selected. For existing ThousandEyes customers it will provision the order to your existing organization.
