ManageEngine OpManager vs Wireshark comparison

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

"The solution offers very good integration capabilities."

"The application monitoring is the solution's most valuable feature."

"Managing platforms and network device virtualization on one platform is beneficial."

"The tool is useful for SNMP monitoring."

"ManageEngine OpManager has given us the ability to monitor real-time performance, and positions of our virtual machines and host machines, helping us minimize the amount of time it takes to manage them by allowing us to monitor all machines through a single dashboard instead of going to them one by one."

"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."

"The most valuable feature of ManageEngine OpManager is the management of the virtual machine and the host machine."

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

"Wireshark does exactly what I want and leaves me with no need to look elsewhere."

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

"I use this free, open-source solution daily for packet analysis, and the packet details pane is particularly valuable."

"I believe everyone should use this tool if they need to analyze packets."

"Wireshark has been getting better and better in the time I've been using it and it is a very helpful tool."

"The product is simple to implement."

"The solution is easy to install and use."

"Based on the high cost, I'd rate the solution six out of ten. I don't know if I would recommend it."

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

"OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on."

"Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available."

"I would like to see more enhancements made to the product. This would be better because compared to other products, the vendor is very slow at enhancing the solution."

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

"Support is very bad. They should improve support and customer relationship."

"Also, every time I perform a version upgrade, something breaks."

"It needs the ability to follow multiple interfaces for specific traffic from different network zones/virtual networks. It would help to understand how any packet is going through the network."

"Big trace files (more than 1,000,000 packets) can be slow, but then you can use "TraceWrangler" (also free) to help with slicing and dicing the data."

"It is difficult to scale this solution."

"DNS could be improved."

"The volume of data on a typical TCP segment is so large that it can be challenging to capture and find the right data."

"Built-in help system is not robust."

"This product needs to improve the UI."

"Maximum buffer size of captured data should be unlimited and should allow ability to archive all old captures (not save option) in real time, it should support a destination location where old captures can be directed for long term storage."

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

"It is reasonably priced."

"The pricing is moderate."

"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."

"We had perpetual licenses. The cost was around 36,000 for OPManager, and then you'd have the yearly maintenance fee of 2,000 or 3,000."

"The initial cost is low and the add-ons are reasonable."

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

"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 tool is free."

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

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

"The solution is open source so is free."

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

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

"It's free."

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