ExtraHop now offers Reveal(x), the company's network traffic analysis (NTA) and anomaly detection security application.
Capsa is highly recommended to be used in small dense areas of a network where it makes sense to be able to run analytics off of a mirror port to gain insight into traffic trends. It is a costly product to install in branch locations, and requires a decent spec hardware to run appropriately

ExtraHop is a must have for on-premise environments where traffic passes through a physical data centre or network operations centre giving complete visibility into what is happening on the corporate network. This works flawlessly if business operations are in office. For hybrid or remote setups, the solution still works well by placing ExtraHop traffic between the VPN termination and firewall and setting up a span port. ExtraHop works well for cloud based deployments as well with their virtual appliances; however, it does not have the same edge against competition as many CNAPP solutions can gather similar data using graph API's provided by the cloud service provider. That said, ExtraHop does provide some unique features that CNAPP's do not around network operations.

Console is easy to use use and familiarize oneself with. Some points deducted as it can be annoying at times to have to drill down using the drop down menu, and then selecting tabs to get the data you want.

Colasoft performs more like the traditional wireshark as opposed to other solutions that tend to focus on graphs instead of giving you the raw data. I personally prefer the raw data, and then the ability to build graphs upon this (which Capsa can do). This allows for quicker analysis and makes it easier to relate to.

I evaluated ExtraHop against Dark Trace. Against all criteria, ExtraHop had a clear edge including visibility, price, effectiveness, integrations, and more.

While the product doesn't detect malware, it has helped track down malware infected machines by using data from other applications to run filters to look for known traffic destinations for that malware. For me this is a huge ROI since malware can be the great unknown.
