"Currently, only a limited number of clients can connect to these devices."
"Documentation could be improved, but everything else has been spot-on."

"The GPS feature could be improved."
"Our CTO was not real happy with their support."
"I would say that the indoor site accuracy is pretty good but the outdoor one should be improved. I would say if there was a way to put trees in there and canopies, that would be great."
"It would be better if it provided clear visibility. It would be better if it accommodated large physical sites like a warehouse with a ceiling height of more than twelve to fifteen feet. In such situations, we were unable to provide better coverage."
"The report generation has room for improvement and is missing small details."
"Ekahau Site Survey is an expensive solution, and its pricing should be improved."
"I wish there were a competitor to keep Ekahau Site Survey's pricing in line, but there's none."
