ClearSight Analyzer vs Wireshark comparison

"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."

"I have found the most valuable feature you can design your sniffer the way you want to."

"It has a good syntax to put the commands in and get information out of."

"The initial setup is simple."

"The feature to incorporate Voice over IP (VoIP) incidents into network traffic analysis is valuable. Capturing voice or SIP communication allows for examination of interactions between SIP clients and SIP servers. This helps the team investigate or analyze issues related to call center servers and operators."

"Wireshark helps us to understand network traffic."

"It's easy to troubleshoot issues because there's a large online community."

"Wireshark has a lot of features. It's a powerful tool if you're familiar with it. You can see everything on the network with it."

"The session-level filtering features are valuable."

"I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that."

"Wireshark's UI isn't easy to handle and doesn't have as nice a view as Omnipeek."

"Wireshark could be improved with a delay option when getting data automatically."

"Wireshark is restricted when any sort of encryption is involved, such as XSL encryption or DLX."

"Wireshark could make the filtering rules easier to apply and offer a drag-and-drop option as opposed to type and text."

"Wireshark is similar to an OS defense tool, meaning that it runs on an OS such as Ubuntu and Fedora, but I'm unsure if it's compatible with Windows or if it's a straightforward process to run it on Windows. Right now, my team needs to run Wireshark from a dongle to use it, so it's an OS-dependable tool, and that's an area for improvement. I was unable to use Wireshark on Windows, and I couldn't capture it, as I'm unsure how to configure the wireless card into monitoring mode on Windows. The process was straightforward on Linux, but it wasn't the case on Windows OS. It seems Wireshark isn't compatible with all OS. For example, you can analyze the log, and you can analyze it on the Windows server, but you can't do a capture in Windows. Configuring Wireshark for Windows isn't as easy as configuring it for Linux."

"This product needs to improve the UI."

"The decryption of encrypted packets could be better."

"We would like the product to be developed so that it doesn't rely on internet access for installation. We would like to see all of the components required to be integrated into the installer."

"It was pretty modest because you could get it in different ways. I think the six licenses, at that time, were about $1,000 each. But then again, I work for a school and educators tend to get discounts on things. So maybe it cost us about five or six hundred a copy."

"I am using the free version of this solution."

"It is free."

"We are using a freeware version of this solution, so there are no licence costs involved."

"It is free to download and install. It runs on multiple platforms, so how can you go wrong?"

"Wireshark is an open-source product, so it's free to use."

"The solution is open source so is free."

"This is an open-source product that can be used free of charge."

"Wireshark is open source and gives great value and functionality to the network investigation."
