What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

This tool is invaluable if you are doing any kind of web development. In particular, we work on enterprise services being called by many different processes, and it is not always clear what a process calling our services is actually sending. Fiddler allows us to capture messages going in and out, and debug exactly what is happening when a consumer complains of a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

It can be a little complicated to get Fiddler to capture the traffic you want, especially if proxies are set up in a non-standard way, or if traffic is being filtered or massaged by corporate security software. However, with some effort, we were able to overcome these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is our go-to tool for web debugging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

Fiddler has the ability to intercept https, and I can also intercept traffic from a smartphone via my computer acting as a proxy on the same network. This is immensely helpful for mobile app development.

Also, in the Composer feature, the request and response headers are shown accurately, unlike Postman which sometimes inserts headers automatically because it is based on Chrome's web engine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

Sometimes when https network traffic interception is enabled, the network on my Windows machine stops working completely if Fiddler is left open for prolonged durations. This is an annoyance since Fiddler is not the first suspect one would think of closing.

Also, the root certificate in the trust chain it inserts for https interception is not trusted by other parties, so some specific types of network calls may simply fail.

One feature I wish Fiddler had was easier population of headers when composing http requests via a drop-down menu or something similar, instead of having to hand-type the full content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:

Take your time to learn all the features, they are immensely useful and Fiddler is a toolbox with very powerful tools for network traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Fiddler almost everyday to view network traffic, test http/https requests, and validate responses while developing web applications. This is immensely useful in making sure the http/https traffic behaves correctly and has all the headers that a compliant with the mandatory security requirements and practices across the company.

What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

At its core, Fiddler allows the developer to capture web requests/responses in a web application environment. It allows the developer to pinpoint possible issues between the client & server.

Fiddler also has many other features that I haven't really messed with much: Ability to record & playback network traffic (ie. for testing purposes), ability to introduce artificial delays to simulate slower network speeds, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

At the moment, I can't think of anything I dislike about the software -- they've done a great job with it. It definitely meets my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?

In my opinion, the biggest business benefit is the time saved when debugging. When data doesn't make it back to the client (browser) as expected, this tool allows you to determine if the request / response data is as you expect it to be (or if the server even sent a response at all).

What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

The presentation of the user interface is i think the best aspect of the fiddler platform, which is made keeping in mind the usability ad accessibility of the platform. Also the Reporting and the part is added advantage of the the platform which cant not be neglected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

Much technical, should be designed such that a common user can also give it a try without any assistance. There should be an option for the guided tour of the portal, a knowledge base would be much appreciable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:

Good to use, easy to manage and understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reporting and analytical abilities. To solve problems, employees need strong analytical skills. Hiring managers desire a person who uses clear, logical steps and excellent judgment to understand an issue from all angles before executing an action. Solutions can be reached by clear-cut, methodical approaches or more creative and lateral angles, depending on the objective. Both of these ways of solving a problem take analytical skills. These essential skills are required by employers for many different types of jobs in a variety of fields, including business analytics, data architecture, data science, marketing, project management, accounting, business development, programming. All these are provided by fiddler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
