Pico Announces Major VoIP Analytics Product Upgrade

Pico is one of the global leaders in providing mission-critical technology services, software, data and analytics to the financial markets. While its Corvil Analytics is best known for ensuring the performance of low-latency electronic trading systems, Corvil VoIP Analytics is used to oversee the operations and performance of some of the world's biggest and most complex VoIP installations. To make sure that VoIP is reliable and of good quality, the Corvil method of evaluating network and application activity at the same time is essential.

Chief Product Officer at Pico, Stacie Swanstrom, said, “With 20 years of experience in deriving operational intelligence from demanding and dynamic networks, Corvil Analytics has established a critical role in high-performance trading environments.” She added, “Corvil VoIP Analytics takes the ability to capture and decode lossless granularly timestamped data at 100GB and applies it to VoIP applications, providing the same rich data clients have come to expect in both on-prem and cloud deployments.”

One significant advantage of Corvil's wire data technique is that it offers a vendor-agnostic method of managing VoIP quality. Large enterprises often rely on several suppliers, and depending on vendor-bundled diagnostic tools provides only a partial and fragmented picture. In addition, 60% of current Corvil VoIP consumers have switched suppliers in the last three years. Corvil was important to the success of those initiatives, and it also provided a complete picture before, during, and after the migration.

The Corvil solution's value is centered on quick and easy access to rich analytics:

  • A unified interface for summary VoIP performance dashboards highlighting overall KPIs and failure rates
  • When troubleshooting difficulties with providers and suppliers, complete packet capture for each call gives a clear record
  • Drill-down into individual calls with a single click and quick access to both signaling messages and the voice call packet stream
  • Splunk, Orion, Nagios, and other third-party operations management systems benefit from extensive open APIs and live streaming of key metrics
