"The most valuable feature of OmniPeek is the ability to assign custom color codes to the different packets easily."
"The solution ranks as one of the top five monitoring tools."
"It did a good job of the collection and then an investigation of the net flow of information for understanding the applications that were being used at certain locations."
"The set up was very easy. We didn't have any problems with the setup. The deployment took less than an hour."

"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"I would like to see the tool work in an open environment the same as how it does in a closed environment."
"The solution's automation has room for improvement."
"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."
"I don't see a clear roadmap in the future for improving this software."
"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."
"Technical support can be slow to respond."

"If they did some type of synthetic monitoring, it would have been better."
"The price of the solution can be improved."
"GUI needs improvement with a more graphical dashboard."
"This product could improve by adding cloud monitoring. I want SolarWinds NPM to do much more integration, and have more involvement in cloud monitoring, like AWS or Google, or Azure. I feel like it requires lots of improvement for cloud monitoring in NPM."
"The solution is not always good with new features, so it's take a long time."
