ClearSight Analyzer vs Wireshark comparison

"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."

"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."

"The GUI is easy to use."

"It helps in analyzing if something looks suspicious, such as a brute force attack or scanning from somewhere."

"The product is simple to implement."

"The options that are required to get the details for the packet drops are good."

"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 has good basic features."

"It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."

"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."

"We'd like to be able to extract the output into an Excel table."

"Its user interface was a little less friendly. They can make its user interface a little bit more friendly. It is for technical people, and most of the technical people would be able to figure it out, but it would be good to improve its user interface. They can maybe build artificial intelligence into it. Currently, it takes a lot of manpower to analyze and dissect all the data."

"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."

"The solution’s user interface could be improved."

"The initial setup depends upon the basics. You need to have a clear understanding of the basics."

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

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

"DNS could be improved."

"It was pretty modest because you could get it in different ways. I think the six licenses, at that time, were about $1,000 each. But then again, I work for a school and educators tend to get discounts on things. So maybe it cost us about five or six hundred a copy."

"It is free."

"The tool is free."

"Wireshark is an open-source product, so it's free to use."

"I am using the free version of this solution."

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

"Wireshark is free of charge, and there's no license involved."

"It is free to download and install. It runs on multiple platforms, so how can you go wrong?"

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