They're not 100 percent sure about it."
"The platform's cost needs improvement."

Another area for improvement in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is bandwidth management. This is a feature that Meraki has that allows you to control user bandwidth, so my company has a pilot project to test Meraki Wireless LAN. Bandwidth control is an additional feature I'd like to see in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN as that would make the solution better."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"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."
