Netflow is a protocol, not a specific product. Netflow data is sent out, usually by a router or switch, and contains data regarding the traffic on a port or device. Other applications can then interpret that Netflow data and use it to draw graphs, analyze trends, and do lots of other cool things with it.

We have a product called Nagios Network Analyzer that was built specifically to work with Netflow data in the ways I have described.

Check it out here: http://www.nagios.com/products/nagios-network-analyzer

You can download a free 60-day trial if you want to try it out.
