I recommend Wireshark to users of both small and enterprise-level companies. It is effective for the minimum business and large enterprise scales. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.
Wireshark is its own thing. It doesn't have a competitor that I know of. We can packet capture on firewalls, but I've never seen it on a switch. It's agnostic, and those are proprietary. The product is pretty well recommended in the IT community. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
I would recommend the solution to other users. Wireshark is a good tool to start with network analyzing and packet capturing. You can use Wireshark for packet capturing to find the root cause of any issues in the network. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
I work for Cisco. We use a custom version of Wireshark, which is built within Cisco. I might be using functions that don’t exist in the community version. I haven't contacted the support team. When I had an issue a few years ago, I contacted the person who developed it. I recommend the solution to others. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.
Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. Just focus on the basics. Once they are clear, you can handle and master any of the products in the secure network market, whether it's switches, routers, firewalls, VPNs, load balancers, or whatever it is. Just focus on the basics of what you want to pursue in your career.
We get all details about the product on the Internet. People with at least two to three years of experience in IT know Wireshark and its uses. It is not difficult for them to understand the tool. I would recommend the product to anyone who comes to me with any network or Internet issues where they cannot access a certain website or application. On an application level, the solution works fantastically. Though we can get logs for the website, it is not easy to track applications. It's one of the best tools in the market, which can help us resolve issues at the application, user, and end server levels. Overall, I rate the product ten out of ten.
I give the solution a nine out of ten. There is a purpose for using Wireshark. If we don't know the purpose or our agenda, then why are we using it? The solution would be useless for us in this case. If we are following an example and are a SOC person, we just need to sniff the communication and confirm that it is stable. However, if we are general IT people and do not know the purpose, then Wireshark would be useless.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten. The solution is good, but the solution can be improved by increasing its capacity to manage larger files. I advise users considering the solution to have the latest PC to load it. The newest voice is also required to load it otherwise it is difficult to open.
All people within my company use Wireshark, so that's two hundred users. My advice to anyone looking into using Wireshark is that you should know how to configure the interface and the internal Wi-Fi card into monitoring mode, so you can capture via Wireshark. As Wireshark is a good tool, I'd recommend it to others, but you should have some knowledge of how to use it and how to configure it. Before implementing Wireshark, you need to know your objectives, working scenarios, what type of features you'd want to implement, and what changes you need to make. I'd rate Wireshark eight out of ten because for you to configure and use it requires proper knowledge. It's straightforward to use if you have some knowledge of configuring it for monitoring. I'm a customer of Wireshark.
Two hundred people use Wireshark within the company. My rating for Wireshark is a nine out of ten because I like it and I use it so much. I'm only a user of Wireshark.
I use the solution to support my customer's environment. I am not a partner or reseller. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. Wireshark is more of a packet capture tool. If you are in a network environment, where you are supporting the customer and looking after the issues with network drop, network devices, or IP calls, you must have a Wireshark on your PC. This is a tool that gives you a clear-cut idea about where the issue is, and where the packs are dropping. It's an excellent tool. Everyone should start using it.
The most important thing for new users of Wireshark is to get used to the filtering functions because all the filters are based on command input, so the ability to organize the right filter is essential. I would rate Wireshark eight out of ten.
It's a user-friendly solution. I can start by capturing the interface's data because it will show me the number of interferences. Then I have to select and begin the inspection. On a scale from one to ten, I would give Wireshark an eight.

I would rate this solution 10 out of 10. Wireshark is very good for network engineers. It's free software, and you can install it very easily, and there are a lot of features. I mainly use Wireshark in Windows. My advice is to do research on the internet, especially on YouTube, if you have any troubleshooting issues. It's a very popular solution, and if you're able to, I think it would be helpful to donate to the organization so people can continue to develop Wireshark.

I would advise others to have a game plan for it because there is a lot of data that goes into it. You can analyze a lot of data. Having a very strategic game plan would be ideal. I would rate Wireshark a ten out of ten.
