Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"You can put all of your work on there, they'll send you an email or send you a text. That functionality as a network engineer is the one I like the most. I do like the fact that we can schedule reports. That works too because that's a lot fewer spreadsheets that I have to create."
"We find the networking aspect of this solution to be the most valuable."
"The setup was easy."
"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."
"We have found the solution to be stable."
"Flexibility in the two view dashboard helps viewers and admins get the information they need about the fetwork in a flash."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring alerts. The administrators are immediately notified and can do the required action immediately. This is the feature we value and use the most."
"The detections are fine when they work."
"The best part about Wireshark, in my opinion, is its ability to analyze packet capture files."
"It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"I can save the traffic and analysis when I want to. Also, it's especially helpful to follow the stream (TCP, UDP, etc.)."
"The solution is easy to install and use."
"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."
"Wireshark is very user-friendly; even someone with basic IT knowledge can use it."
"The most valuable feature is the traffic gate, which shows which IPs are getting more bandwidth or traffic."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance."
"We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation."
"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 dashboard could include more features."
"We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved."
"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."
"Some of our customers have been asking that OpManager have a feature to monitor the operating system, however, I tell them that Endpoint Central is doing that. You can buy endpoints and then OpManager, and they integrate between them, and everything is okay."
"They should add more features to URL monitoring."
"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."
"DNS could be improved."
"The solution has a steep learning curve. There are so many filters and features that are frequently being updated, it takes research, experience and familiarity to be able to use them. It could be a lot more user-friendly."
"It is not an easy program. You will need to study to use it to its full capabilities (follow a course)."
"The product is great but I wish there were more of an emphasis on the command line tools."
"The initial setup depends upon the basics. You need to have a clear understanding of the basics."
"In the future, it would be nice to see color coding. It is just black and white."
"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."
