Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."
"The ability to decrypt traffic and the abundance of filters available are both valuable features."
"I have found the most valuable feature you can design your sniffer the way you want to."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The best part about Wireshark, in my opinion, is its ability to analyze packet capture files."
"You can use Wireshark to see the traffic packet format, the IP layers, the fields, and the enabled flags."
"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."
"It has a good syntax to put the commands in and get information out of."
"The solution is easy to install and use."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"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."
"We'd like to be able to extract the output into an Excel table."
"Wireshark could be improved with a delay option when getting data automatically."
"The solution has a steep learning curve. There are so many filters and features that are frequently being updated, it takes research, experience and familiarity to be able to use them. It could be a lot more user-friendly."
"Wireshark could be improved by adding more monitoring features."
"It needs the ability to follow multiple interfaces for specific traffic from different network zones/virtual networks. It would help to understand how any packet is going through the network."
"Whenever we select one of the packets, in terms of the number of bytes, for example, there are three planes, and in the detailed plane, I have to count the number of bytes manually."
"The system could be improved upon by adding a better and more powerful data processing engine."
"The initial setup depends upon the basics. You need to have a clear understanding of the basics."
