The main feature is the overall user interface. You'll just like using Airopeek and AirMagnet Laptop a whole lot more.

Since you asked for specifics, here is what I can say off the top of my head:

AM Laptop:
-Alarms
-Navigation between channel statistics
-AP and STA information/statistics reporting is easier to navigate
-Device finder
-Site Survey tool
-Perofrmance tool

Airopeek:
-Packet list navigation is better**
-Alarms
-Peer map
-Ease of creating complex filters
-More statistics reported
-Better protocol finding and isolation

**This is the big one. This one separates Airopeek from the pack in my opinion.

I could probably go on and on and on if I took the time to get in front of all three products. If you really are just worried about cost, go with Airopeek SE ($900). You don't get the peer map or the alarms, but it still does the job very well.

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
