"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."
"It's easy to troubleshoot issues because there's a large online community."
"The drill-down available for packet analysis is great. It gives a network security engineer insight into what is going on at the packet level and enables better troubleshooting."
"Wireshark helps us to understand network traffic."
"Packet-capture files can be hard to use due to their size. Wireshark has a tool called tshark that can parse the files with out opening them so that you can take large captures, say 2-10GB, and return only relevant information."
"Wireshark's best features are that it lets us see what traffic is in the network and what data should be encrypted."
"Being able to dissect email data and figure out what is inside email messages was the most valuable feature. Such a feature is pretty helpful for an ongoing forensic investigation or when there is a potential insider threat that you are trying to investigate. It allows you to see the network activity of the users you are investigating. It also gives you more visibility into your network. It was very easy to set up. There is a lot of information out there on Google and YouTube about how to use it. There is also community support. If you have any trouble, it is pretty easy to find an answer online. You will have to do some digging only if you have a very specific use case."
"You can use Wireshark to see the traffic packet format, the IP layers, the fields, and the enabled flags."
"It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support 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."
"With Wireshark, you cannot download and utilize the packet in automation."
"Wireshark could make the filtering rules easier to apply and offer a drag-and-drop option as opposed to type and text."
"The system could be improved upon by adding a better and more powerful data processing engine."
"We'd like to be able to extract the output into an Excel table."
"It would be better if they offered a hybrid version like My Cloud Control."
"DNS could be improved."
"The product has been using the same GUI for many years."
"You need some basic knowledge to work with Wireshark. Maybe it could be more user-friendly just for new users. Just for the new generation."
