Because of possible delays or bottlenecks of Internet traffic. The number of applications is a blessing, given the fact that every company and every sysadmin have different needs, which would make a one-size-fits-all approach difficult to implement.

Most network software comes with some level of monitoring and management capability, but often IT departments appreciate being able to choose different features. Here is a rescue wand NetInfo. This multifunctional application analyzes your connection and various aspects of the Internet in order to isolate potential pitfalls. Once it determines where the problem lies, NetInfo provides you with a whole slew of tools that help you solve it. If the problem lies beyond your realm of control and you don't know whom to contact about it, NetInfo will give you a name, e-mail address and phone number.
