We performed a comparison between Cisco Network Assurance Engine and iBwave Wi-Fi based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Modeling and Simulation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."In a short amount of time, you can see what went wrong on a screen in a report."
"The standout feature of Cisco Network Assurance Engine is its ability to proactively detect and prevent network issues before they occur."
"It is easy to set up."
"It is scalable from the beginning. It is a product that you can scale upwards whenever you want."
"Compared to other tools, iBwave Wi-Fi provides 95% accuracy and generates heatmaps."
"The 3D Coverage is a good feature that shows the signal propagation in three dimensions."
"The solution's 3D imaging is amazing."
"The stability and feature set of the application are top notch and can't be matched."
"iBwave Wi-Fi's tech support is great. They pick up their phones. I have no complaints."
"It can speed up design."
"I find the high-quality Heatmap generation, multi-floor, and wire mapping features to be most valuable."
"At the beginning, the setup was complex."
"It needs authentication beyond just local and LDAP. It should also have TACACS+ and RADIUS."
"The scalability is one of the biggest failures of the solution."
"To enhance Cisco Network Assurance Engine, simplifying its interface and making it more user-friendly would be beneficial."
"Areas of improvement would include more functionality in the Mobile App, expanded reporting features, and some shortcut features."
"I am currently looking for an alternative due to my reluctance with the reliability of this product."
"I would like to be able to see two buildings at the same time so that you can create a campus view."
"The cost of the solution could be improved. It's extraordinarily expensive."
"iBwave Wi-Fi doesn't have a distributor feed platform."
"It would be good if we could involve a visual while designing the backhaul."
"It would do iBwave well to become more involved with their clients."
