About

Elecard Boro is a professional software solution for real-time video stream health monitoring and Quality of Service (QoS) & Quality of Experience (QoE) tracking across distributed networks. Designed for broadcasters, OTT providers, and IPTV operators, Boro utilizes distributed software probes to instantly isolate quality degradation across the entire delivery chain. How it works: Probes analyze UDP, RTP, HTTP, HLS, DASH, SRT, and RTMP streams up to UHD. Multi-point measurements are aggregated on a centralized server, providing instant alerts for ETSI TR 101 290 errors via Email, SNMP, Webhook, PagerDuty, and Telegram. Key Features: • Rapid Start: Deploy probes on any hardware in 10–30 minutes • Deep Diagnostics: Tracks 50+ QoS/QoE parameters, SCTE-35 ad cues, and captures PCAP streams • Smart Dashboards: Visualizes service states and captures stream thumbnails • Easy Integration: Access via an intuitive web interface and integrate using WebHook, SNMP, and ControlAPI

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The Elecard Boro Probes significantly boost situational awareness by enabling real-time monitoring of numerous feeds simultaneously. This holistic view allows for a quick overview of all probes, making it easy to identify and delve into the ones exhibiting issues. The email alerting feature is particularly beneficial, as it swiftly draws attention to any problems, ensuring that prompt action is taken to resolve them. This level of immediate awareness and responsiveness is invaluable in maintaining high operational standards and ensuring the continuous delivery of high-quality broadcast content.
  • I am thrilled to share how essential continuous monitoring is for live sporting events. Distributed monitoring is incredibly effective for overseeing signals at the network's border and handing them over to clients. With increased insight into the performance analysis of our transport streams, our TOC team uses the system 24/7 to monitor IP Transport streams (UDP and RTP); from time to time, we also direct SRT monitoring. The probe functionality allows quick identification of specific events and their root causes through event search and root cause identification, which is critical in live broadcasting. One of the standout features is the ease with which new probes can be deployed. This flexibility is particularly advantageous for global networks and the events we work on worldwide, allowing for quick and efficient scaling of monitoring capabilities. The Elecard team provides prompt and helpful support, ensuring smooth operations at all times - from server selection to installation settings.
  • Easy to setup, good support and competitive business model. SSO integration for access control. The only cost effective solution we found to monitor all our streams in HLS + Dash, Encrypted + FTA, at six different steps in our workflow.
  • - Lots of features for monitoring and analyzing transport streams at remote sites. - Detailed customization options for specific needs. - Integrated TS recording. - Customizable alarm plans. - Stable. - Fair pricing.

Cons

  • Historically, a notable downside has been the absence of an API, which posed some limitations in integrating with other systems. However, with the advent of the latest versions, an API is being introduced which is a significant improvement. Another area with room for enhancement is the reassignment of probes between projects. A more flexible reassignment feature would simplify management and improve usability, especially in dynamic environments where projects evolve rapidly.
  • The absence of a built-in multiviewer is the only downside. However, its inclusion would significantly increase the hardware requirements.
  • Could be more precise in terms of alarm management (it raises them even for non critical issues). Need to add a proxy for stream access control management.
  • There could be better documentation, but most of the features are self-explaining.
