What is a network analysis app?

A network analysis application helps users analyze the performance of their computer networks. The application includes features that enable users to monitor network traffic, view packet data for each connection, and monitor all activity on a specific device or set of devices (e.g., Ethernet ports).

Network analysis apps are often used for organizational productivity, collaborative work, and team collaboration. Similar to project management apps, network analysis apps are also often used to plan events or activities. Some of the most popular network analysis applications are Trello, Asana, Slack, and Wrike.

How to successfully grow your network analysis application

A network analysis app needs to give users a good reason for using the app on a regular basis. This can be accomplished by providing users with advance notice of local events that match their interests, as well as by providing them with the opportunity to network with people in their area. Network analysis apps should also provide their users with tools that allow them to create social networks of influence within their own community.

Risks and challenges of building a network analysis application

An app that performs network analysis faces a number of risks related to the unauthorized access of a user’s private information, the transmission of the user’s personal information over insecure channels, and the possibility of leakage from the app backend. When designing an app that performs network analysis, it is advisable to ensure that all data is encrypted in transit and at rest. It is also recommended to provide users with strong privacy controls for limiting what data they share with this app and which parties they want to share it with.
