Find out what your peers are saying about Ekahau, NetAlly, iBwave and others in Network Modeling and Simulation."I would like to rate the product as eight of ten."
"Clear and easy to use maps."
"Customer service is great."
"The most valuable feature is the predictive survey. The antennas' RF patterns are reflected correctly on the drawing when preparing predictive heat maps."
"We use the solution for Wi-Fi and networks."
"It allows us to prepare more real designs. Later, we validate them with actual surveys."
"The benefit is with the ease of use of the software, I am able to show the customer, "Here is what your wireless coverage looks like." It is set up in a fashion that non-technical people can understand it."
"The most valuable features are the survey, spectrum analysis, and reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the stability. It works and doesn't stop."
"This product offers cloud-based configuration, so you can set it up from anywhere."
"The tool's most valuable feature is report generation. Its dashboard helps me a lot with user analytics."
"Cisco Meraki is HIPAA compliant."
"The solution ensures seamless connectivity as users move within the office. Six installed Meraki APs provide excellent coverage for around three hundred users, offering reliable speeds. Additionally, the system allows guests and users with priority devices to connect using their SAP ID. The traffic is managed through D and G controllers to meet the specified requirements for continuous connection and speed."
"It has good security with its Layer 7 protections."
"This product has allowed us to easily create custom SSIDs for clients and carve out the necessary bandwidth for clients needs."
"The initial setup of Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN was very easy."
"Printouts are JPEG printouts. The AirMagnet software is proprietary. I can't send my customers a file, because it is AirMagnet file, even for building projects. I can only send JPEGs or screenshots of heat maps."
"AirMagnet Survey doesn't cover certain devices in the system."
"The surveying features are in need of improvement, along with general usability."
"I would say some of our newer techs that are going out to job sites can be a little bit intimidated by the interface."
"It'd be nice if it was cheaper, however, you get value for your money."
"But it's definitely a more expensive solution than other ones."
"The user interface needs a lot of improvement. The auto-placement of access points is not accurate."
"The throughput should be more advanced in the future. They need to add more versions of WiFi than just one."
"I would like to see Cisco Meraki improve the accessibility by region level here in Latin America."
"There's nothing that special about it."
"The only concern is when the license has expired and it will no longer function, the entire network goes down, without any notification, or warning."
"The error logs need to be much more comprehensive."
"The pricing structure could be improved."
"We'd like to have better mapping to showcase low-coverage areas."
"The annual maintenance is something that needs to be changed."
"Documentation could be improved, but everything else has been spot-on."
