Instead of sFlowTrend
sFlowTrend alternatives
sFlowTrend gives a real-time view of top network users and applications, tying network, server, and application performance together through sFlow and its extensions. It can help pinpoint bandwidth use, abnormal traffic, host CPU and memory utilization, and usage trends for upgrade planning. Its free plan is limited to five switches or hosts and keeps one hour of data in memory. It also requires sFlow-speaking switches or hosts and Java 11 or later; its installed server is accessed through a web client.

That combination may not fit if you need longer history, other flow sources, or more than five monitored devices. The free license bars commercial use without separate written authorization and fees, and provides the software as-is without warranty. When comparing alternatives, consider whether you need packet capture or broader protocol support, historical analysis, device checks, or traffic controls such as bandwidth limits and firewall rules. Platform and deployment needs matter too, as does the price of paid editions compared with sFlowTrend’s free but limited plan.
