"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The performance and availability of Omada Access Points have met our business needs, particularly in improving network control and facilitating direct access for developers to branch services."
"This product is easy to use."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its price."
"Omada Access Points are very good in terms of wired technologies and wired connectivity."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is easy to deploy and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of TP-Link Auranet EAP is its high performance."
"Its sturdiness and cost-effectiveness are the most valuable features."
"We don't have any issues 90 percent of the time. It works fine in most situations. It has been a success story for delivering WiFi services in Romania. Our customers are happy, and I've been satisfied with Omada's performance as an engineer."
"Mesh networking and antenna patterns are the most valuable features of the solution."
"They have all the features in terms of wireless technology. They have most of the features already there in the controller and their wireless system."
"In general, all implementations are standard and pretty straightforward."
"Tremendous throughput and easy installation, configuration, and monitoring."
"The product can scale."
"The mesh technology is the solution's most valuable aspect. Ruckus originally had the patent for it. They might've lost it because I see now that other people are doing it, however, they were the ones who came out with the smart mesh technology first, which is phenomenal."
"I really like Ruckus Unleashed, which is the feature that provides a quick solution for me to control the APs."
"The product is extremely easy to manage after it is implemented."
"It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"The solution is expensive."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"Aruba has better scaling capabilities."
"There should be more remote support for the mobile application."
"Omada could add some API integrations that would help with our automated solution. We're trying to integrate, and we're having some issues because some of the calls are not there. The API still needs some development."
"It is less affordable for smaller businesses."
"There is room for wider improvements and additional features to enhance managing capabilities."
"Omada's ordering platform could be improved, though. Some of their distributors are a pain to work with."
"We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem."
"The technical support could be improved."
"Its pricing and licensing can be improved. Its UI can also be more user-friendly. Currently, in the Unleashed mode, the information that you have about the switches that you add to the controller is quite limited. I would like more information regarding switches. In this mode, an access point acts as a controller, so you don't need a controller. It is for deployments with less than 125 access points, and you can use an access point as a controller."
"We've had issues with the ISP, not enough bandwidth."
"Ruckus products, overall, have a wide range of useful features, however not all customers have the budget to buy a corporate Wi-Fi solution. Most of the time, it's far too expensive for our clients to consider going with Ruckus, and they might like to see cheaper solutions in the Ruckus range."
"It could be more stable."
"I suggest more controlling features on the controller. The menu of the performance must be improved, as well."
"It would be better if there were more visibility on the cloud. We have some lack of visibility because of wireless interference, and you have to do some troubleshooting for the packet capture. They have a built-in packet capture, and we can monitor the application. You can see all things over the cloud. They also provide an on-premise solution, so they need to improve the on-premise version and ensure an output with more visibility. Live monitoring in a live environment should be good. What is happening with wireless is that the wireless client is not connected due to interference, and there should be a shield zone on their wireless cloud. If they give us more features on both Ruckus Cloud or on-premises, that will be best. Nowadays, security is more important for everyone using wireless technology. If they implement a little bit of reduction and prevention features for some packets on the wireless cloud, some features like web filtering and some prevention for blocking will be good for the network."
"The cost must be reduced."
"I would like to see this product made a little more economical because it's very expensive."
