ManageEngine OpManager vs Wireshark comparison

"The dashboard is unique and user-friendly."

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

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

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

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

"The traffic monitoring and the traffic analysis are great."

"I liked Network Configuration Manager. They had some pretty decent features there, and they also had pretty good monitoring and alerts."

"The setup was easy."

"I find Wireshark a very useful tool. Its best feature is that it allows me to deeply understand what's going on at the packet level, as well as any adverse signatures that I can analyze. When I need to create an IPS rule, I need to check the traffic deeply to get more insights about the actual traffic, what's the name of certain flags, etc., and I'm able to do all that through Wireshark. The tool is also user-friendly."

"What's best about Wireshark is that it doesn't require installation. It supports cards and monitoring permissions and is sufficient for appending and capturing activities. You won't need to install other tools to use Wireshark, so this saves you time. You can capture packets at any time from your laptop through Wireshark."

"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."

"The initial setup is simple."

"It's easy to troubleshoot issues because there's a large online community."

"The session-level filtering features are valuable."

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

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

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

"The licensing model is confusing."

"With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."

"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."

"We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely."

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

"ManageEngine OpManager can improve by having better updates for critical issues."

"WMI and SNMP integration with the domain controller should be seamless"

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

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

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

"Wireshark could make the filtering rules easier to apply and offer a drag-and-drop option as opposed to type and text."

"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 solution’s user interface could be improved."

"A room for improvement in Wireshark is its ease of use for beginners. It could be better. Another room for improvement in the tool is for it to provide more details about the traffic load. At the moment, Wireshark is adequate for me, so there isn't anything I'd like added to it in its next version."

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

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

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

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

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."

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

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

"We have a standard license for ManageEngine OpManager. We purchased the license for one year and now we are upgrading it soon."

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

"It's a stand-alone tool. If there is a commercial license for it I am unaware of it."

"The tool is free."

"The solution is open source so is free."

"Wireshark is free software, so you don't have to pay any licensing fee. Individual people can use it and then donate to Wireshark."

"It's free."

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

"It is free."
