ManageEngine OpManager vs Wireshark comparison

"The detections are fine when they work."

"The dashboard is unique and user-friendly."

"OpManager can monitor network utilization, downtime, and services in real time."

"It helps us a lot for monitoring our servers in one console, instead of going to individual servers."

"ManageEngine OpManager positively impacts organizations by allowing users to practically manage their network, so they can understand exactly what's happening and where the problems are coming from, ensuring proactive monitoring."

"ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring."

"Overall, I give the product a rating of ten."

"Device monitoring is a good tool of this solution."

"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."

"Wireshark has a lot of features. It's a powerful tool if you're familiar with it. You can see everything on the network with it."

"The solution is easy to install and use."

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

"I can save the traffic and analysis when I want to. Also, it's especially helpful to follow the stream (TCP, UDP, etc.)."

"It gives us the ability to pinpoint problems and to communicate network problems with software and hardware vendors."

"The ability to decrypt traffic and the abundance of filters available are both valuable features."

"The feature to incorporate Voice over IP (VoIP) incidents into network traffic analysis is valuable. Capturing voice or SIP communication allows for examination of interactions between SIP clients and SIP servers. This helps the team investigate or analyze issues related to call center servers and operators."

"The main drawback is there is less documentation available, both public documentation and partner-available documentation."

"The integration with various OEM products could be simplified."

"The data provided by the tool is not accurate."

"I would like to see more capabilities and specific profiles built for the manufacturing sector."

"The solution is a bit difficult to configure. There are quite a number of configurations and plugins that you must handle early in the process."

"If you have a ton of devices, it might slow down a bit."

"What I'd like ManageEngine OpManager to improve on is artificial intelligence. In particular, the machine learning feature should be integrated with the sensor flow. Doing this will give leverage, especially when you look at other products such as the Cisco DNA Center. When a switch goes down, I should be able to build on the correlation of other physical devices it's connected to so that I can integrate that with my CA CMDB. The ManageEngine OpManager team needs to draw a long-term roadmap where that feature becomes an integral part of the solution because right now, machine learning in ManageEngine OpManager is a long process. The solution doesn't have MLS search and I want to see ML being developed and applied for CA CMDB to greatly reduce the burden of tying everything. For example, if I have a data center switch that goes down now, I should know what server it's connected to, and when that switch goes down at twenty-four ports, I would get twenty-four alerts for different devices plugged in. I should be able to make a correlation that the major problem lies in the switch and not with the twenty-four elements connected to that switch. That is where machine learning should come into play and the ManageEngine OpManager AI should indicate "This is where the root of your problem is." It could be difficult, but this is a feature that should be improved or added to the solution."

"The installation of ManageEngine OpManager was difficult mainly due to the business view feature, as many customers in Vietnam want the team to develop more detailed capabilities regarding the business view."

"Wireshark is restricted when any sort of encryption is involved, such as XSL encryption or DLX."

"It is not an easy program. You will need to study to use it to its full capabilities (follow a course)."

"In the future, it would be nice to see color coding. It is just black and white."

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

"This product needs to improve the UI."

"DNS could be improved."

"The only thing that I don't like is sometimes there is an update, and something that I was using is either no longer there or it has changed."

"The product is great but I wish there were more of an emphasis on the command line tools."

"In terms of pricing, I would rate it a two out of five. It was expensive."

"The product is not worth the money."

"The solution's pricing is very low compared to other products."

"ManageEngine OpManager is cheaper than SolarWinds."

"ManageEngine OpManager has a three-tier licensing model."

"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."

"As far as cost, it was around six hundred thousand rands ($40,500) for the year, for the renewals. That's the total cost for a four thousand node system including support and maintenance."

"The price of ManageEngine OpManager is reasonable. We have an annual license and the cost comes from how many devices are being monitored. There is not anything extra cost for maintenance and support."

"The tool is free."

"Wireshark is open-source and free of charge."

"The solution is open source so is free."

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

"We are using a freeware version of this solution, so there are no licence costs involved."

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

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

"It's free."
