| Technical Support (IT) at Mantra Technologies | 4.5 | Overall, I rate this easy-to-manage, stable, and scalable solution highly, with good customer service. My key concern is the inability to change a user's role after creation in version 8.7.70. |
| IT network admin at a hospitality company with 501-1,000 employees | 4.0 | We use OmniVista for network connectivity and management due to its unified features and analytics. However, OmniVista is expensive with proprietary licensing, requires CLI for some tasks, and has issues with access point weight and switch overheating. |
| Project manager at Infotel Communications | 4.0 | I find Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista, an open-source solution, stable and easy to set up. Its best feature is monitoring wired/wireless equipment, though I wish it had more cybersecurity features. Support is good, and I rate it 8/10. |
| Tech Engineer at ABS India | 4.5 | I work with Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista, handling switches like OmniSwitch and OmniAccess Stellar. The system is scalable and user-friendly, though it lacks a netting feature for network transitions. Despite this, it offers reliability and a good return on investment. |
| Sales manager at Dyarco Technology W.L.L | 5.0 | I highly recommend Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista as a stable, scalable network management solution for their access points and switches. It offers valuable reporting, fast support, and is easy to set up. A heatmap is the only suggested improvement. |
| Solutions Architect at a comms service provider with 1,001-5,000 employees | 5.0 | I use Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista for analytics and security. It's stable, scalable, and easy to set up, offering good reports. While I want WiFi locations for all users, support is good, and I recommend it highly. |
| President at Dagostino Electronic Services, Inc. | 4.0 | I use Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista for strong, stable, and scalable network management, valuing its health visibility and good support. I'd like more AI/ML, but it's a rich solution. I rate it 8/10. |
| Network Administrator Wireless at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees | 4.5 | I use this solution to monitor my wireless network and value its stability, scalability, and helpful alerts. While setup was straightforward, I wish the report maker and interface were more intuitive. |
