"The best feature of Ruckus Wireless WAN apart from its seamless roaming feature where you roam beautifully on the network is its analytics tool that gives you so much insight into your deployment, so it has become more of a business intelligence type of tool as well. I also like that Ruckus Networks, in terms of WiFi security issues on the WiFi protocols, is also the first company to give you notices of security issues, and also the first to provide patches for those issues. Ruckus Wireless WAN is very proactive and much, much faster than Cisco, Aruba, and Meraki."
"Tech support is good."
"The technical features are very good and it's very useful if you need a wireless solution."
"The connectivity is good. There's no lag at all in service."
"There are numerous features, but what I like about Ruckus is that they have a good coverage range due to their BeamFlex technique."
"It should be a faster device."
"Sometimes it can be difficult to find the right sizing."
"The HPE Wireless dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"HPE Wireless WAN could provide better access points and better pricing."
"Technical support could be improved. They could respond a bit faster."
"The sales sync should connect with and sync up with the customers."
"The installation is easy. However, my implementation is complicated and you would need special training to complete it."
"Scalability is an aspect of this product that should be improved."
"I would like to have a better built-in reporting feature."
"Pricing could be improved in Ruckus Wireless WAN because obviously, everybody wants things to become cheaper. Another room for improvement in the product is from a delivery perspective, particularly the heavy delivery delays because of the chip shortage that a lot of manufacturers have to deal with. The chip shortage is not coming to an end, but Ruckus Networks has to make a plan because the ETA has slipped out from the average of three months on switches to fourteen months, which is very, very rough on the industry at the moment. Ruckus Wireless WAN could lose business to Chinese competitors, for example, HTC has a good wireless solution that I haven't tested yet, other than on POC, and it works great. I haven't yet experienced the HTC wireless solution in large deployments, so you never know how it's going to go, but HTC has managed to circumvent the chip shortage, so the ETA provided by HTC is much more preferred than the ETAs provided by Ruckus Networks, Cisco, and Aruba products."
"In comparison to Cambium, I find Cambium to be more robust in terms of performance."
"Really, it's just about centralizing manageability across multiple sites, but like I said, that's me commenting on the old product that we've got. I know they've addressed that now with cloud controllers, but that would've been my main thing."
"I would like to see built-in Wi-Fi."
"The stability of the solution could improve in an upcoming release."
"The captive portal should be more customizable because right now, it is very limited."
"We had a problem with the delivery of the solution."
