Who is LiveAction?
LiveAction is an enterprise network performance monitoring and analytics vendor that provides software for visualizing, troubleshooting, and optimizing complex hybrid and multi-cloud networks.
- Network performance monitoring and diagnostics (NPMD) platforms for on-premises (on-prem), hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
- End-to-end traffic visualization and path analysis across Wide Area Network (WAN), data center, Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), and cloud networks.
- Flow-based and packet-based analytics for performance, capacity planning, and application experience monitoring.
- Support for routing, Quality of Service (QoS), and policy verification across multi-vendor network infrastructures.
- Tools for incident investigation, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), and reporting for network operations and NetOps teams.

More About LiveAction
LiveAction develops software platforms used by enterprises and service providers to monitor, analyze, and troubleshoot network performance across distributed infrastructures. Its tools focus on providing end-to-end visibility into traffic flows, application behavior, and device performance across WANs, data centers, SD-WAN deployments, branch sites, and public cloud networks. Organizations typically deploy LiveAction within network operations centers to support availability, performance, and capacity objectives.
The company’s offerings System Integration Testing (SIT) in the network performance monitoring and diagnostics (NPMD) and network observability categories. LiveAction platforms ingest telemetry from multiple sources, including flow records such as NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and related flow formats, as well as packet data and device metrics. By aggregating and correlating this telemetry, the software presents topology-aware views, traffic paths, and application performance metrics that help engineers localize issues and understand dependencies.
LiveAction tools are designed to work across multi-vendor environments and integrate with routers, switches, firewalls, and SD-WAN edge devices from common networking suppliers. The platforms support analysis of routing behavior, QoS policies, and Traffic Engineering (TE) configurations. This allows enterprises to verify that network policy and QoS settings align with intended design and that latency, loss, and jitter remain within required service levels for voice, video, and business applications.
In hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, LiveAction solutions collect flow and packet telemetry from cloud-native constructs such as virtual private clouds (VPCs), virtual gateways, and virtual appliances, alongside on-prem infrastructure. This provides a single operational view for traffic that crosses data centers, corporate WANs, and public cloud regions. Network operations teams use these capabilities to analyze application paths, detect congestion or misrouting, and plan capacity upgrades or policy changes.
From a marketplace taxonomy perspective, LiveAction aligns with network performance monitoring, network observability, traffic analysis, and packet analysis categories. Its products are used by NetOps, SecOps-adjacent teams, and capacity planning groups to support incident investigation, RCA, compliance reporting, and executive reporting on network health. By centralizing and correlating flow and packet data, LiveAction provides a structured way for enterprises to operate complex SD-WAN, multi-cloud, and traditional IP networks within defined performance objectives.
