Richard Bradley
Valuable troubleshooting tools and easy to scale, but outdated documentation, issues with stability, and lacks differentiated survey modes

Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "This solution is not cheap. If you only need an occasional site survey, you are better off contracting a wireless engineering professional that has one."
  • "The solution is priced fairly for the features that you receive."
  • "The licenses are a little pricey compared to iBwave, etc."
  • "The pricing could be lower because the Huawei radial planning is free for the partner. When I asked my boss about buying Ekahau and the USB key, it was complicated because of the high cost, which is €5,000."
  • "That's a tricky thing. When it started off, we had one three-year license and one one-year license because we have two devices. Now, from my understanding, we can only renew every year or get a one-year license, and that cost varies. Being a government organization, we get a different cost than commercial. We have deployed it on Surface Pro tablets. So, the only other cost would be the hardware cost."
  • "The pricing is quite expensive. Not all companies can afford it"
  • "We pay $6,000 yearly for the licensing, but each piece of hardware, the Ekahau Sidekick, is $5,000."
  • "I believe that it is approximately $2,000 per year for us. I know we pay for it on an annual basis."
