PacketTrap Networks, Inc., later known as just PacketTrap, was a provider of network management and traffic analysis software for midsize companies.
PacketTrap was founded in 2006 and headquartered in San Francisco, California. It received $5 million in Series A venture capital from August Capital in 2007. [1]
The company was purchased by Quest Software in 2009. [2] PacketTrap was then bought by Dell in 2012 as part of a buyout of Quest. [3] Dell discontinued development of the software in 2013. [4] PacketTrap was established enough that other companies continued support [3] of the legacy product through licensing agreements with Dell.
