More Cambium Networks Wireless LAN Pros →

"The ease of use and simplicity of the solution is its most valuable feature. This tool is best suited for small environments.""There was a time when we were using Cisco switches and attempting to integrate Ubiquiti UniFi switches into our network infrastructure. Eventually, after some effort, we managed to understand the process. Initially, it was challenging to configure the unified console to manage virtual networks alongside internal networks effectively. We had to comprehend how both systems would integrate carefully. It became apparent that maximizing the usage of Cisco switches required a thorough understanding of how UniFi operates at the backend.""The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti WLAN is its stability.""Ubiquiti WLAN has been stable and is easy to install.""would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable.""The pricing is very competitive and the feature sets are very good. It compares well against more expensive options.""The most beneficial thing about Ubiquiti is that it is simple to deploy.""The management features are valuable."

Cons
"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.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features.""The price could be better.""The solution is expensive.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"We would like this product to have more information data sheets available. At present we cannot easily access details around the full capability of a piece of equipment.""The problem with this radio wireless technology is that it cannot compete in terms of bandwidth with the fiber optics at this moment. That's the biggest weakness.""The product pricing needs improvement.""Cambium Networks Wireless LAN should improve its pricing.""Not a lot of technical engineers are familiar with Cambium Networks Wireless LAN. They are familiar with implementing and using other solutions such as Aruba. Therefore, Cambium Networks needs to be more visible in the marketplace.""There is room for improvement in the pricing model.""The capacity and coverage could be improved.""The solution’s technical support could be faster."

More Cambium Networks Wireless LAN Cons →

"I have never used cloud solutions. My first approach would be something related to the cloud, and backups on the cloud, and maybe an easier way to connect to it because I have an on-premises environment.""The room for improvement is in the controller levels.""The logs are not detailed enough. You can't clearly see what is being blocked in Ubiquiti WLAN, making the troubleshooting process a little bit harder.""The strength of the signal from the access points could be improved.""The product needs to improve the user interface in the migration from old to new versions.""I have found they need to work on the stability of the solution.""There seems to be a drop in service. It's definitely a reliability or stability issue we face.""Ubiquiti WLAN would be improved with the addition of individual AP configuration, which would allow for fine-tuning of individual access points and logins."
