"Express in default configuration mode with first turn-on is easy to set up and deploy from a medium installation standpoint.""One feature that differentiates Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar from some other vendors is the fact that on-premise OmniVista licenses are perpetual.""There is a definite ROI with this product. This product creates a baseline of technology that will be a means to grow from five to ten years from now. By using this solution, it is an investment on the installation of that baseline.""The features aren't much different than those in Aruba, but deployment is easier to configure and the pricing is better.""The solution allows you to see the SNMP packets, the DPI packets, and the SNMP server.""The initial setup is pretty straightforward.""I have worked with different solutions in the past and switched to Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar because of its quick installation time. It requires no additional preparation. The product is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support of this solution is great. The timeliness of their responses is crucial for me. When I raise an issue, I can count on receiving a prompt reply, eliminating the need for extensive online searches or phone calls.""We are very satisfied with the performance."

"It needs to be faster in order to process and transmit bigger packets.""If the customers plan to go on the cloud side, they need encryption and daily communications from a security perspective.""It is not possible to integrate Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar with third-party software like Opera, a property management system (PMS).""I would prefer to have the integrated heat map feature provided by the basic controller in the Solution instead of purchasing an external one. Accessing this capability directly within the controller's access point would be convenient.""Better integration with third-party systems is what our customers are expecting in the future.""Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar's radio management side could be improved.""The current implementation of our Guest Access network in isolation for Express mode is very complicated in comparison with leading market solutions.""There are occasional OS bugs."

Some of their distributors are a pain to work with.""It is less affordable for smaller businesses.""There is room for wider improvements and additional features to enhance managing capabilities.""Omada could add some API integrations that would help with our automated solution. We're trying to integrate, and we're having some issues because some of the calls are not there. The API still needs some development.""The price of the solution is an area requiring improvement since I want the solution to be made available at a cheaper price than its current market price.""The solution takes a long time to switch to another connection, which should be improved.""The technical support could be improved."
