"The cloud-based controller through HiveManager is its most valuable feature. I can manage and configure changes to my access points from anywhere."
"The Client 360 feature provides a comprehensive view of your clients and their activities, including the devices they use. Additionally, a feature called Network 360 offers a 360-degree view of the network, like data usage (in GB), the status of ports and AP, and other details. You can drill down on granular-level drills to gain insights into specific applications and usage patterns like application level and fee, where your data is being wasted or what your clients are doing with the Internet data, what kind of applications they are using, etc."
"ExtremeCloud IQ is an intuitive platform. The tool's ability to streamline network operations depends on the end customer. Sometimes it's quicker, and sometimes it takes much longer. It helps me to address network problems."
"When we deployed the new IP that is managed wirelessly in the cloud, it fixed the problems. Now, we don't have any more reports, and everything works fine."
"The cloud-based management interface allows us to fully manage all our wireless radios, ensuring consistency and ease of access."
"Our transaction polling is now way more secure."
"The most valuable feature is the centralized management capability."
"The solution is easily managed compared to other wireless solutions."
"The reliability has had a positive impact on our operations."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"Huawei Wireless's most valuable feature is smart antenna, a combination of informative capabilities and advanced technology."
"The solution has high performance and we are using Wi-Fi 6 that we have found to be the best coverage."
"The solution's roaming feature is very nice. When you move to another place it automatically changes the access point. It's one of the most valuable features."
"We can use an access point to broadcast multiple SSIDs, assign dynamic VLANs, and configure dynamic access control lists (ACLs)."
"You can add a lot of features, such as cloud, integration with IoT, etc. They have a lot of options available but the top feature is the performance."
"I would like to see a remote phone application for monitoring APs when on the road."
"Certain features only exist or work in certain versions."
"Pricing could be improved. It could be lower."
"A room for improvement in ExtremeCloud IQ is roaming. My team is facing roaming issues with the solution, particularly when using VoIP over WiFi. For example, VoIP sometimes breaks when you walk around the customer site. In terms of what I'd like to see in the next release of the solution, right now, the inventory for ExtremeCloud IQ is awful. There's no stock, and you must wait a year and a half for new stocks. It's awful."
"The solution will show us that there are some issues, but when we try to find those issues, we can't see them."
"ExtremeCloud IQ’s user interface needs to be improved, and its current bugs need to be fixed."
"Need port aggregation on the 2384 switches to take full advantage of ac on the APs. I understand that is on their product road map."
"There can be an improvement by incorporating two-factor authentication or multi-factor authentication for security. Advanced network access control features and application control features should be added to manage applications. Many customers are interested in managing data, such as setting data quotas for individual users."
"Huawei Wireless is not scalable. We have had a problem with the solution because it cannot integrate with other servers as the other competitors can."
"I have encountered connectivity issues with the tool. I am not sure if it is due to Wi-Fi inference. I would like the solution to include some marketing analytics features like evaluation of user behavior."
"The speed could be a bit better."
"The scalability could be better."
"The manageability could be improved."
"While technically proficient, enhancing communication skills would greatly benefit the customer experience."
"The solution needs to include a captive portal."
"Cloud integration needs to be improved."
