ManageEngine OpManager vs Wireshark comparison

"The most valuable feature is the network-related reporting."

"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."

"The dashboard is unique and user-friendly."

"The product provides intensive reports."

"We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product."

"Some of the useful features are NetFlow and analytics."

"The solution gives pretty good network visibility. I am also impressed with it's monitoring."

"The uptime and monitoring are valuable to us because we need to monitor the uptime of our services, the memory, and the CPUs."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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

"Wireshark helps us to understand network traffic."

"The session-level filtering features are valuable."

"Wireshark is very user-friendly; even someone with basic IT knowledge can use it."

"The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved."

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

"This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance."

"ManageEngine OpManager could improve the default dashboards that are available. We are not able to customize them easily and they do not give us the information we need unless we customize them. You need to have the technical knowledge to be able to do it, the customization should be easier."

"The dashboard has some limitations and should be more user-friendly."

"The storage level monitoring needs improvement. It needs storage level monitoring on the server itself. That feature is lacking right now."

"We have been facing an issue since last year when a lot of our users started to work from home through their mobiles or computers. We are having trouble reaching these devices. We are now planning to publish our instance to the cloud so that we can reach these devices. Its performance should be improved in terms of the discovery of the devices. I would like to feel confident with the discovery that this solution does. For example, on my dashboard, I would like to be able to view a list of all devices seen on a specific server. At present, it is difficult to find such information. This would be an excellent feature to have."

"ManageEngine OpManager could improve by adding network device control capabilities."

"You need some basic knowledge to work with Wireshark. Maybe it could be more user-friendly just for new users. Just for the new generation."

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

"The system could be improved upon by adding a better and more powerful data processing engine."

"DNS could be improved."

"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."

"Sometimes I need to use tcpdump when I need to check the packets on CLI."

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

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

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

"The price for ManageEngine OpManager is average."

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

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

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

"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 product is not worth the money."

"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."

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

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

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

"It is an open-source solution."

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

"The solution is open source so is free."

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

"It's free."
