Alluvio AppResponse vs Wireshark comparison

"Riverbed's product is a superb product."

"With some APM solutions, it can take a long time to check a periodic report, but you can get all the necessary details quickly with AppResponse."

"The most valuable feature of Alluvio AppResponse is the actual response time for measuring performance."

"It provides us with complete visibility of every packet."

"We really like the scalability capabilities."

"AppResponse is a total solution that gives you end-to-end visibility into applications at all levels, from Layer 1 to Layer 7. We can trace all those sections: physical, IP, transport, presentation, application, etc. It gives us the full picture."

"When it comes to the ability to scale up the product, this is suitable for small medium and large environments,"

"I have found the AppResponse, which is a packet capture solution, very good. It gives you the ability to drill down back in time. You've got all the packets there. You can troubleshoot it later, not immediately. It's very interesting."

"If you're dealing with troubleshooting network, voice issues, or network operations, having a tool like Wireshark to dive into packet details is important. The initial setup is straightforward. Anyone starting out or looking to deploy it on your personal PC or machine can do it easily."

"The best part about Wireshark, in my opinion, is its ability to analyze packet capture files."

"The transmission and reception issues are valuable."

"The GUI is easy to use."

"Wireshark saves a lot of time, especially with network troubleshooting."

"I like the filtering feature as we can filter data easily. This feature is also available in tcpdump, but it's a simple piece of software. Wireshark is more advanced and has many features. It allows you to filter a lot of things. The output can be filtered easily. The most important feature is colorization. If I say, "Okay, this particular SMB protocol in red, it will show me red." It's easy to identify that protocol or capture data."

"The most valuable feature is the traffic gate, which shows which IPs are getting more bandwidth or 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."

"The recent changes in corporate structure may have caused some decrease in support quality."

"Need to bring back the NetFlow module for AppResponse."

"The AI features should be addressed in respect of the analysis and intelligence that must be supported and delivered in the tool to predigest the large amounts of data."

"The reporting models need improvement as most of the time, we have to customize the reports manually."

"Alluvio AppResponse should improve its ability to expand across multiple operating systems."

"Integration between NPM and APM solutions would improve efficiency. There is no agent on the server site related to AppResponse."

"If Alluvio AppResponse reduces its cost, it will be more beneficial for customers to monitor their application and network performance."

"The pricing is on the higher side of things. If they could lower it, that would be ideal."

"I have not used Wireshark to an advanced point where I could provide a detailed opinion on improvements needed."

"Wireshark could make the filtering rules easier to apply and offer a drag-and-drop option as opposed to type and text."

"Wireshark gets stuck when it is a larger file."

"It would be better if they offered a hybrid version like My Cloud Control."

"We would like the product to be developed so that it doesn't rely on internet access for installation. We would like to see all of the components required to be integrated into the installer."

"Wireshark is similar to an OS defense tool, meaning that it runs on an OS such as Ubuntu and Fedora, but I'm unsure if it's compatible with Windows or if it's a straightforward process to run it on Windows. Right now, my team needs to run Wireshark from a dongle to use it, so it's an OS-dependable tool, and that's an area for improvement. I was unable to use Wireshark on Windows, and I couldn't capture it, as I'm unsure how to configure the wireless card into monitoring mode on Windows. The process was straightforward on Linux, but it wasn't the case on Windows OS. It seems Wireshark isn't compatible with all OS. For example, you can analyze the log, and you can analyze it on the Windows server, but you can't do a capture in Windows. Configuring Wireshark for Windows isn't as easy as configuring it for Linux."

"Wireshark could be improved with a delay option when getting data automatically."

"Wireshark's UI isn't easy to handle and doesn't have as nice a view as Omnipeek."

"The licensing model is expensive compared to its competitors, but the service it gives to your business, and the data quality, means that it's worth it."

"The price is a little bit high, especially because we have to pay an import tax."

"It is costly for small and medium businesses."

"The solution is no more expensive than other products."

"It is an open-source solution."

"This is an open-source product that can be used free of charge."

"The solution is open source so is free."

"Wireshark is open source and gives great value and functionality to the network investigation."

"We're using the free version of Wireshark."

"I've never personally had to pay for it, making it a highly valuable internet resource that's accessible for use. While they offer some paid versions, our firm has utilized the free version for the past three years."

"Wireshark is free software, so you can download it and use it for free with no licensing fees."

"It's a stand-alone tool. If there is a commercial license for it I am unaware of it."
