ExtremeCloud IQ Other Advice

Due to the outdated nature and complexity of implementing the network access solution, it's anticipated that the tech team will face significant challenges, requiring considerable effort and resources. Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.
View full review »The solution has easy maintenance. Unlike other solutions, it’s very convenient and easy to maintain because it’s a cloud solution. The solution gets updates and patches easily, and we can immediately benefit from any new features or versions introduced. Adding new IPs or setting up new sites when customers open branches is a simple process of adding the serial numbers of the APIs and provisioning the settings across them.
We have used other tools for network monitoring like the Motadata.
Try out the features and experience the hardware, software, and unit management solution they are offering, especially with the AI and machine-enabled cloud features. The available features are impressive. It's not just about opting for popular names; other players in the market can provide similar solutions at an affordable cost. You can save on your IT budget without compromising quality by exploring different options. Allocating the saved budget for other requirements becomes possible when you choose a reputable product at a more affordable cost.
Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
View full review »ExtremeCloud IQ is not the only cloud solution in the market. So we have other cloud solutions like Cisco Meraki and Aruba Central. So there is a lot of competition for ExtremeCloud IQ. Compared to the other solutions, ExtremeCloud IQ needs to improve with respect to its user interface and current bugs.
You can use AP models 460 and 410, which are indoor and outdoor AP models for indoor-related, warehouse-related, or temperature-related mesh. These are industry-standard APs that you can use.
Overall, I rate ExtremeCloud IQ an eight out of ten.

I'm working with ExtremeCloud IQ and Mist AI.
I cannot say that ExtremeCloud IQ is the best of the best, but nine out of ten is a good score for the solution.
My company is a partner and reseller of ExtremeCloud IQ.
View full review »We're using the latest version of the solution. It supports our Wi-Fi 6 highly compatible. And in wireless, it's a 22.11.
We're end-users.
It's working very well on our side. That's why we tell people that this solution is good. We've had a good experience with this. In our organization, there are traditional buildings that are from 1947. The width of the walls are approximately 2.5 feet and more, so it's quite difficult to penetrate the signals through those walls. In case of the Wi-Fi, that will be one of the challenges. However, we are seeing it's working very smoothly.
I'd rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We sell the solution. We are an Extreme partner. I don't know to what level. We're Cisco through and through. About 70% of what leaves this company is Cisco and we're a $270 million company. However, we’re partners with Extreme too.
I’d rate the solution a seven out of ten.
View full review »We have been extremely pleased with the quality, ease of setup and cloud management of the Aerohive APs. I would not hesitate to purchase this product again.

I think that it's a very useful cloud solution. I would rate this solution as a nine out of ten.
If you're going to have a bake-off try Aerohive last because you won't want to take it out. Take this from someone who is about to sit the CCIE Route/Switch lab, just because it doesn't say Cisco doesn't mean it isn't top notch gear.
View full review »In terms of deployment, the controller of ExtremeCloud is on the cloud, while the access points are on-premises.
I'm rating ExtremeCloud IQ eight out of ten.
View full review »The cloud version of the controller is a little better supported than the on-premises version. Only select the onsite version if there are security concerns.

ExtremeCloud IQ is considered a very good platform with excellent support, although there may be some concerns with pricing and a minor issue with information delay in statistics.
View full review »Aerohive is hands down the best wireless network provider I have used. Their products are affordable, realisable and packed with features! The company is excellent in all areas and it is apparent they are about their customers experiences.
View full review »For any wireless network implementation, a wireless survey of the space is key to a successful deployment. As for Aerohive specifically, stay away from older B/G devices if you can keep them off your network, and keep the radio power as low as you can manage to avoid issues with surrounding wireless networks…especially in congested areas/cities.
View full review »When you are considering a move to Aerohive, ask if you can get a sample device to run on your network. I did this, played around with it for a while, and it helped tremendously.
View full review »It has been a total success and well-received by our staff and students. If you need a wireless infrastructure, you cannot go wrong with Aerohive.

I believe Aerohive is committed to being a leader in this space and that their APs for the enterprise campus are the best available. I would like to see port aggregation on the switches but have been told that's on the roadmap, and that's acceptable at this time. HiveManager make the whole process of configuration and management of the network so much easier. I'm a fan.

The cloud interface is decent. It has a smooth dashboard.
Aerohive has been the perfect fit for a University like us. I am the Senior Network Administrator of the University. I am thrilled that I have no worries about our wireless network.
The initial configuration of the Aerohive solution may seem a little daunting, but it is worth it and becomes a lot easier as you begin to use it and understand how it works. If you are coming from a multi-controller environment, you will be extremely happy.

Everyone I’ve dealt with at Aerohive has been wonderful, down to David Coleman, the main trainer. I have taken a couple of their classes and that helped with the initial and then the advanced setup items. I’ve worked with Abby and a few others through orders and they have all been stellar.

Overall, we are definitely satisfied with this product. They are well ahead of what I want to see. Sometimes, when I think that a new feature might be nice, it's there already.
My advice for anybody who is looking at this product is that there may be a small barrier to getting started, but just jump over it and you will definitely be surprised by the simplicity of the whole product.
The autopilot version of Cloud IQ is coming, and it has a lot of artificial intelligence in it. It will handle jobs that the normal IT person does. You can just leave it alone, close the door and throw away the key.
I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

I would definitely recommend this solution. It is very good and stable. You don't have to go with multiple consoles and their integration.
I would rate ExtremeCloud IQ a ten out of ten. It is a perfect solution.
View full review »If you start a new network immediately switch to HiveManager NG. Don't waste your time setting up your system in the old management solution as you will have to move anyway somewhen.
View full review »I think this is a great solution and as more and more technology changes come out it should only get better. They are priced right and fairly user friendly to setup for someone with not much wifi experience.
