"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."
"Wireshark's best features are that it lets us see what traffic is in the network and what data should be encrypted."
"It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the traffic gate, which shows which IPs are getting more bandwidth or traffic."
"The strongest feature of this solution, is the ability it gives us to carry out deep-packet inspections on our network, particularly when a function isn't performing as it should."
"The most valuable feature of Wireshark is the ability to choose a destination of flow that has not been working as expected."
"It gives us the ability to pinpoint problems and to communicate network problems with software and hardware vendors."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."
"ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues."
"The solution's reports need to include the number of applications consumed."
"It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically."
"The licensing model is confusing."
"We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation."
"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by having a better cloud presence."
"The only problem with it is that the setup isn't very intuitive. I know that they just upgraded the product to make it a little bit easier to use, but compared to some of the other platforms, it is not easy to configure it, set it up, and get it running. However, once you have set it up and got it running, it runs great."
"You need good network connectivity to download during the setup, otherwise, it might take a while."
"It is not an easy program. You will need to study to use it to its full capabilities (follow a course)."
"The product is great but I wish there were more of an emphasis on the command line tools."
"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."
"The Wireshark search function shows green for a correct search and red for an incorrect search. If there were a way to provide a description about what a search - and the similar ones which are available - can do, while a person is typing it, it would make the product easier to use and simultaneously decrease the learning curve."
"With Wireshark, you cannot download and utilize the packet in automation."
"Wireshark gets stuck when it is a larger file."
"I wish the filters were a little bit more prepopulated."
