The UI of wireshare was very dated and sometimes made difficiult to debug my issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Been a user of Wireshark for years now and never came across any issue so far:
1. Collect any ethernet packages, over different interfaces like USB, RJ45, and different VLANs at the same time.
2. Open and analyzing BUGs or tickets using Wireshark, time stamp, and search are great features
3. Of course, being open source allow customizing some plugins on top of Wireshark like SomeIP/SD which are very helpful
4. Filters and exporting the comments tracing the bug timestamp and finding the root cause are great options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can not really think of something that I dislike, but when the logs are in GBs it becomes very very slow to open and apply the filter. If the tool can open the file and parse it in chunks would make it better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
