YE
A powerful service that is very stable and scalable
It's a very powerful service, you have to use your training and understand how to work it. After that, it's very easy to collect and to use. It may be hard to use for the administrators. It's like a Ferrari, if you're a very good driver you'll go to 300 but you have to know how to drive it. If you have a Ferrari but you don't know how to use it, it's not going to be good. Also, it's very important to understand what the customer needs to decide on what kind of products you are going to use, and what product and what solution to implement. I would rate the solution nine out of 10.

Real-time analytics and alerts improve application performance and network operations
OmniPeek's ability to convert application visibility into flow helps me quickly understand application performance over LAN, WAN, or wireless. Its real-time analytics, integrated with LiveNX ( /products/liveaction-livenx-reviews ), allow me to monitor business-critical applications and set up alerts for application performance issues. This centralized dashboard and alert system is highly valuable for maintaining network operations.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"My experience with technical support has been perfect."
"The most valuable feature is OmniPeek is user-friendly."
"It's a solid piece of software. It's stable."
"OmniPeek's ability to convert application visibility into flow helps me quickly understand application performance over LAN, WAN, or wireless."
"The most valuable feature of OmniPeek is the ability to assign custom color codes to the different packets easily."
"The most valuable features are the voice bot, which checks the quality of service for voice, and the expert view that gives me insight on what and where to troubleshoot."
"I believe the most crucial feature of OmniPeek search is the ability to sniff packets based on channel switching."
"The most valuable feature of OmniPeek was the ability it gave us to see the connection procedure."
 

Cons

"The presentation of the features can be improved. It can be more user-friendly for the visual part of the portal and to allow the customer to be able to use."
"I would like to see the saving feature improved. We have had issues if you do not save your progress then you have to start from the beginning."
"The solution's automation has room for improvement."
"I would like to see the tool work in an open environment the same as how it does in a closed environment."
"OmniPeek doesn't support Linux or Unix installations, which prompted the shift to Wireshark."
"I am not using OmniPeek for automation, we only do manual testing. Automation testing is tedious to do. The automation should be more user-friendly. I have exposed some APIs but the usage is not user-friendly."
"Making it more clear on how to configure the filters, or really automating them, would be an improvement."
"I don't see a clear roadmap in the future for improving this software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is expensive."
"There are different types of licenses available."
"We have only purchased the add-on once and have not paid for any subsequent versions as it was too costly for us."
"The pricing for this solution could be improved, as it is a very expensive product."
