"We use the solution for Wi-Fi and networks."
"The predictive survey is the most valuable feature. I use it quite often."
"The heat maps are quite good, and some features are easy to use."
"The addition of the AirMapper software on the nXG and our AirCheck G2s has helped a lot because we're mostly not drilling down into the data. Local managers only need to see the coverage on their end and whether there are performance bottlenecks. These things are easy enough for us to ascertain with iPerf."
"It allows us to prepare more real designs. Later, we validate them with actual surveys."
"Customer service is great."
"It is reliable and easy to use (user-friendly). The heat mapping, passive network surveying, and doing the heat mapping of a building's wireless network allows me to see what level of coverage an area has."
"I would like to rate the product as eight of ten."
"We've found the solution to be quite stable."
"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."
"The most valuable features of Huawei Wireless are WiFi coverage and ease of use."
"What I like most about Huawei Wireless is that it's customizable. It has many unique features, such as encryption, spatial streams, hiding features for different scenarios, low-density and high-density areas, and smart antennas."
"The solution has high performance and we are using Wi-Fi 6 that we have found to be the best coverage."
"It provides high-speed network connections."
"That would be more of engineering at this point. I'm from more of the business side. It's pretty much doing the standard installations with portal integrations and integrations with the Mac."
"It would be nice to have some more training resources for younger techs. We can use them if we need some assistance, but that usually requires one of us who knows what we're doing to calibrate the programs properly."
"I would say some of our newer techs that are going out to job sites can be a little bit intimidated by the interface."
"AirMagnet Survey doesn't cover certain devices in the system."
"The user interface needs a lot of improvement. The auto-placement of access points is not accurate."
"The throughput should be more advanced in the future. They need to add more versions of WiFi than just one."
"Less time consumed doing the real surveys."
"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."
"It'd be nice if it was cheaper, however, you get value for your money."
"The demo program is an area for improvement in Huawei Wireless as it's hard to use. As a partner, you can use the solution for free, for thirty days, for example. On paper, everything looks fine, but you have to get permission and explain why you want to download the software, even if it's just for demo purposes. I don't get why I have to do this as a partner and still give an explanation that this would be for a demo setup. Downloading the solution isn't a click-and-install process that should go smoothly and efficiently. You have to get a lot of approvals and explain a lot, and in the end, you find out that you received the approval for one piece of software. It looks like you need additional software to use the software. My company asked for approval and received the approval three days later, but you need to install another software to use some of the features. In the past, most features were separate. Because Huawei wants a single pane of glass where all features should work with the Huawei equipment, Huawei decided to combine everything into the iMaster NCE Campus, which incorporates every other cloud solution. However, you still have to ask for approval for every piece of software, and without clear information on the features, the type of software, and the software files required, it's not so good from my point of view."
"Support could be a bit faster."
"The solution needs to include a captive portal."
"While I am fine with the current licensing price, I would appreciate it to be more cost-effective."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"I'd like to see some after-sales support. It's a little bit below the expectations we had."
"As such, there are no problems. It has been good. There were some issues with the network design, but that is not specifically related to the product. We had to make some improvements in the network design. The product as such is fine, and there are no big issues. We are using the latest version having most of the features available in the industry, so the specs are very high. If something new comes up new in the industry, it needs to be incorporated into the product."
"Technical support could be better."
