A solution for site verifications and enhanced with adapters that provide more realistic readings, but needs to support Wi-Fi 6E
Ekahau and AirMagnet Survey have their own pros and cons, in my opinion. For example, the APs are not visible in Ekahau but AirMagnet Survey allows us to see what APs and channels are being used in a live view, which Ekahau lacks. In Ekahau, the signal from the AP it's capturing at that time is visible which is a bit of an inconvenience. The predictive planner of AirMagnet's is better. However, Ekahau has advantages over AirMagnet because it groups all the SSIDs into one AP, whereas with AirMagnet, one needs to group them manually. Ekahau also supports Wi-Fi 6E, but its licensing is restrictive and more costly.

It's a simple entry-level tool that's easy to set up, but it has some limitations on speed and IP targets
OneTouch is an entry-level testing tool that's coming to the end of its life, I believe, so it has limitations. For example, it can only test up to 1 gig of network speed. It would be helpful if they increased that to 10 gigs. It is also limited in the number of IP targets you can test. If you want to test how many hops or different sites, you should be able to hit a test button and say, "Right then, test these 20 IP addresses to see if I can reach them." It only does up to 10. Most of NetAlly's other devices, like the G2, can do unlimited addresses.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The reports are amazing and very easy to run."
"We normally use AirMagnet products to meter voltage coming off any number of services at the venues that we go to, or generators in the instance that we're doing something that's a temporary powered situation; so, metering voltage, and then also metering amperage draw."
"The most valuable features are the survey, spectrum analysis, and reporting."
"We use the solution for Wi-Fi and networks."
"The program did seem to work well with multiple floors as well as multiple surveys within a particular floor."
"By using an offset of -7 across all 5GHz channels, the Proxim adapter can now closely emulate what a Cisco 8821 Wireless IP handset looks like in an active survey."
"AirMagnet is a very stable and time-tested product, as proved by the fact that the world's leading IT companies use AirMagnet Survey and if we look at the release notes we can see a lot of new features instead of bug fixes as in the Ekahau Site Survey."
"The predictive survey creates heat maps which are accurate and save a lot of time."
"The training features are very valuable for me."
"For me, it's easy to use, it always gives me accurate information, it's never crashed or had issues, and the way it's designed lets you pull the module off and put a different type of module on to do other stuff."
"Fluke makes a good product that is rather unique in the marketplace, in my opinion."
"Fluke’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for."
"OneTouch is easy to set up; you just plug it in, enter your details, and off you go, and it only takes a few minutes as long as you've got Link-Live access or network access."
 

Cons

"Printouts are JPEG printouts. The AirMagnet software is proprietary. I can't send my customers a file, because it is AirMagnet file, even for building projects. I can only send JPEGs or screenshots of heat maps."
"We have had a problem with reporting module, it can't put the full size picture of floor plan in report."
"Without creating a custom adjustment, there can be at times a 5 to 10dBm RSSI difference between what the AirMagnet adapter indicates during the survey and what the Cisco 8821 indicates in the same location as shown below."
"Whenever we are doing the site survey, it will catch most of the areas. However, for example, if we are creating the plan after doing the site survey, in some areas, it will show some signals but actually the signals are not there."
"Last year, we had a project where the client was using Cisco 1700 series AP and they asked for a heat map."
"Since it crashes 1 out of 20 times, it would be great if they could make it more stable."
"It has not been entirely stable."
"I had some crash issues due to the wireless card driver."
"With my Fluke OneTouch, I did encounter stability issues."
"The dashboard is one area with room for improvement."
"It is also limited in the number of IP targets you can test. If you want to test how many hops or different sites, you should be able to hit a test button and say, "Right then, test these 20 IP addresses to see if I can reach them." It only does up to 10. Most of NetAlly's other devices, like the G2, can do unlimited addresses."
"I think they're a little steep on the pricing side, but you take what you get."
"There is no scalability for OneTouch. If you want to do other things with it, you can't."
"The RJ45 jack on top of the Linkrunner has not been able to handle the constant usage at my last location and current employer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product is very expensive."
"The moment we began needing more of the vendor's support, the cost became very high; we switched to another solution."
"The licensing of AirMagnet Survey is different when compared to Ekahu. It is a third of the cost of Ekahau but there are no dedicated laptops to the Sidekick. AirMagnet allows you to license an adapter and share that adapter."
"The pricing needs improvement."
"For technical support, you need an annual license, but it is not worth it."
"The tool's pricing is medium."
"There is an annual cost of the solution. There are some additional charges, such as support and maintenance."
