ManageEngine OpManager vs Wireshark comparison

"We have found the solution to be stable."

"The solution's most valuable features are reporting, event notifications, and alert management."

"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager makes it easy to monitor all the network alerts on the application."

"We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable."

"The dashboard is unique and user-friendly."

"We use the solution to monitor links. It also helps us to track servers and monitor logs."

"The integration with the firewall monitoring, the security monitoring, is great."

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

"Wireshark's best features are that it lets us see what traffic is in the network and what data should be encrypted."

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

"Wireshark's best feature is that it's adaptive, which means it's the go-to tool for network-related developers."

"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."

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

"The licensing model is confusing."

"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."

"The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance."

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

"For the implementation part, I am facing issues when configuring the business view. When I create the business view, I experience problems with the port interface."

"There should be an option to get mobile notifications or SMS mirror notifications for critical issues. That way, when we don't have access to email, we can still receive notifications via our phones."

"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."

"Wireshark could be improved by adding more monitoring features."

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

"The average person would probably find Wireshark hard to use. When I first installed it, I was overwhelmed by all the data it was shooting out. It doesn't make sense until you start doing some research and figure out what everything means. It isn't the most user-friendly tool. It just provides so much information."

"Whenever we select one of the packets, in terms of the number of bytes, for example, there are three planes, and in the detailed plane, I have to count the number of bytes manually."

"I wish the filters were a little bit more prepopulated."

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

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

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

"The licensing costs depend on the number of devices and accounts that are being monitored by the solution."

"The solution's licensing costs are yearly and based on the number of applications."

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

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

"The licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing is on the cheaper side."

"It is not really expensive; it is nominal licensing."

"Pricing for ManageEngine OpManager depends on the number of nodes you onboard and whatever pricing is reflected on the ManageEngine portal which offers discounts from ten percent to fifteen percent. It purely depends on the sales volume and the negotiation. In my organization, there are about one thousand two hundred nodes which cost around $29,000 per year. There's no additional support fee or maintenance fee from ManageEngine OpManager. Pricing for the solution is highly competitive and I would rate it five out of five. ManageEngine OpManager is one of the most competitive options out there."

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."

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

"The solution is open source so is free."

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

"It is an open-source solution."

"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."

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

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

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