- digitalsushi 15y agoI think its strength is definitely when you are collaborating with other folks. Like a call center of engineers working on a ticket. They could leave little sticky notes per packet. It's definitely meant for a shared environment.
- iamdave 15y agoI'm not 100% sure a call-center environment is the best use-case example for this application. I can see it being valuable in extremely small development teams, but the amount of tech that goes into a call center (especially one that makes use of call monitoring/recording systems for QA and KPI refinement/enhancement), having worked in one almost entirely negates the need to store capture files in the cloud. Caveat: of course, my comment itself is negated in the case of a call-center that's has a poorly designed storage network.
- sant0sk1 15y agoI assume you aren't on OS X where Wireshark is fugly, clunky, and takes forever to boot.
- fsniper 15y agoYes. I'm not aware of OS X issues.
- bajsejohannes 15y agoBut isn't wireshark fugly and clunky on all platforms? I love the tool, but the UI has a lot to be desired. I'm frankly a bit surprised that they opted for copying it instead of remaking it.
- ssmall 15y agoAgreed. I use it on Linux and OSX and my only real beef with it on OSX is that it runs under X11. Id rather the mildly clunky OSX interface where I know where everything is than a total new foreign web interface. I guess its just a matter of taste.
