We performed a comparison between AirMagnet Survey and Ubiquiti WLAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Ekahau, NetAlly, iBwave and others in Network Modeling and Simulation."We use the solution for Wi-Fi and networks."
"The predictive survey is the most valuable feature. I use it quite often."
"The benefit is with the ease of use of the software, I am able to show the customer, "Here is what your wireless coverage looks like." It is set up in a fashion that non-technical people can understand it."
"The most valuable feature is the predictive survey. The antennas' RF patterns are reflected correctly on the drawing when preparing predictive heat maps."
"Using the products to ensure the safety of our equipment that we have a lot invested in."
"The addition of the AirMapper software on the nXG and our AirCheck G2s has helped a lot because we're mostly not drilling down into the data. Local managers only need to see the coverage on their end and whether there are performance bottlenecks. These things are easy enough for us to ascertain with iPerf."
"Clear and easy to use maps."
"The heat maps are quite good, and some features are easy to use."
"The pricing is very competitive and the feature sets are very good. It compares well against more expensive options."
"Ubiquiti WLAN's most valuable features are that it works well in a hybrid environment and isn't heavy on resources."
"Ubiquiti WLAN is stable."
"The most beneficial thing about Ubiquiti is that it is simple to deploy."
"would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable."
"The solution is very easy to install."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The management features are valuable."
"Printouts are JPEG printouts. The AirMagnet software is proprietary. I can't send my customers a file, because it is AirMagnet file, even for building projects. I can only send JPEGs or screenshots of heat maps."
"Less time consumed doing the real surveys."
"The surveying features are in need of improvement, along with general usability."
"The user interface needs a lot of improvement. The auto-placement of access points is not accurate."
"It'd be nice if it was cheaper, however, you get value for your money."
"But it's definitely a more expensive solution than other ones."
"When you conduct an active survey and then want to use it for design work, it's actually not very useful."
"I would say some of our newer techs that are going out to job sites can be a little bit intimidated by the interface."
"There seems to be a drop in service. It's definitely a reliability or stability issue we face."
"The statistics you can get on it are a bit limited from what I have seen so far."
"The downside is the interface changes, where they are constantly doing firmware updates."
"The strength of the signal from the access points could be improved."
"The solution is stable but could improve."
"Its scalability, UI, and security features could be better."
"During the configuration, we cannot get information on the network level from the regular interface."
"The support needs improvement. The official support is kind of complex. It's not that straightforward compared to Cisco and Aruba."
AirMagnet Survey is ranked 2nd in Network Modeling and Simulation with 38 reviews while Ubiquiti WLAN is ranked 5th in Wireless LAN with 35 reviews. AirMagnet Survey is rated 8.2, while Ubiquiti WLAN is rated 7.4. The top reviewer of AirMagnet Survey writes "It fixes so many problems quickly that we don't regret spending more on high-end tools than most companies". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Ubiquiti WLAN writes "Helps to build VPNs but improvement is needed in stability ". AirMagnet Survey is most compared with Ekahau Site Survey, Aruba Wireless, AirCheck G3, iBwave Wi-Fi and Cisco Meraki Wireless LAN, whereas Ubiquiti WLAN is most compared with Aruba Wireless, Cisco Wireless, Ruckus Wireless, Omada Access Points and Mist AI and Cloud.
We monitor all Network Modeling and Simulation reviews to prevent fraudulent reviews and keep review quality high. We do not post reviews by company employees or direct competitors. We validate each review for authenticity via cross-reference with LinkedIn, and personal follow-up with the reviewer when necessary.
