A stable and secure solution that is straightforward to implement

What is our primary use case?

This product is typically used to cover normal Wi-Fi applications, such as the hospitality sector or small companies. We have been involved in lots of projects where we have installed this solution for our clients.

Pros and Cons

  • "The security is very good."
  • "The current product line is very high-level and is well suited for enterprise-level organizations, but they need a more cost-effective solution for smaller businesses."

What other advice do I have?

With the inception of the Extreme Cloud, we are now in the process of migrating all of our customers to that cloud-based deployment. Concerning Extreme Wireless, our customers are happy and I haven't had any specific requests for new features. My advice for anybody who is implementing this solution is to take the required training. I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.
