ClearSight Analyzer vs Wireshark comparison

"What ClearSight will do is it actually maps out the conversation for you."

"The filter option provided by Wireshark is its most valuable feature...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"You can use Wireshark to see the traffic packet format, the IP layers, the fields, and the enabled flags."

"Wireshark helps us to understand network traffic."

"I can save the traffic and analysis when I want to. Also, it's especially helpful to follow the stream (TCP, UDP, etc.)."

"It is a stable product. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."

"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."

"The GUI is easy to use."

"It has good basic features."

"I would like to see a multi-user version where you can have a launch platform and, potentially, instead of buying six licenses you buy 12 seats or something like that."

"The product has been using the same GUI for many years."

"DNS could be improved."

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

"This product needs to improve the UI."

"I have not used Wireshark to an advanced point where I could provide a detailed opinion on improvements needed."

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

"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."

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

"It was pretty modest because you could get it in different ways. I think the six licenses, at that time, were about $1,000 each. But then again, I work for a school and educators tend to get discounts on things. So maybe it cost us about five or six hundred a copy."

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

"The solution is open source so is free."

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

"I've never personally had to pay for it, making it a highly valuable internet resource that's accessible for use. While they offer some paid versions, our firm has utilized the free version for the past three years."

"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 free of charge."

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