More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The product provides intensive reports.""The most valuable feature is the network-related reporting.""Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status.""The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them.""I liked Network Configuration Manager. They had some pretty decent features there, and they also had pretty good monitoring and alerts.""Monitoring is the most valuable feature of this solution.""We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable.""Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly."

More ManageEngine OpManager Pros →

"The transmission and reception issues are valuable.""You can use Wireshark to see the traffic packet format, the IP layers, the fields, and the enabled flags.""I use the filters very often, to determine what type of traffic I am looking for. The use of filter allows traffic to be segmented so that a value can be looked at individually apart from the other traffic.""Setup is very easy. It's also possible to change source code and compile if you want to change something in the code, because it's free.""It's easy to troubleshoot issues because there's a large online community.""Wireshark's best features are that it lets us see what traffic is in the network and what data should be encrypted.""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.""I can save the traffic and analysis when I want to. Also, it's especially helpful to follow the stream (TCP, UDP, etc.)."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster.""The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance.""The initial setup is a bit complicated. It needs a technician who is very aware of the flow and how to officially set up the flow chart, etc.""You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper.""The dashboard has some limitations and should be more user-friendly.""This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance.""The dashboard could include more features.""The two views into the system are very good but could be extended to further customization to fit the need of end users in a variety of roles."

More ManageEngine OpManager Cons →

"Wireshark gets stuck when it is a larger file.""You need good network connectivity to download during the setup, otherwise, it might take a while.""The product has been using the same GUI for many years.""Sometimes I need to use tcpdump when I need to check the packets on CLI.""The product is great but I wish there were more of an emphasis on the command line tools.""Wireshark's UI isn't easy to handle and doesn't have as nice a view as Omnipeek.""I would like to see Wireshark improve the ease of application of the command. The command is very powerful, but not easy to apply.""It is not an easy program. You will need to study to use it to its full capabilities (follow a course)."
