Efficient Setup and Strong Performance Highlight Versatile Capabilities
In terms of areas for improvement in Aruba Remote Access Points, when planning for the customer's end, you need to highlight the precautions against EMF emissions and environmental emissions, as well as power management limitations. If the user is in one direction and you're transmitting everywhere, that's not good power management. Currently, all access points provide the same power requirement to the client, but we should explore what extra mile we can go. We are facing energy crises and climate issues, along with GHG and SDGs protocols. If we highlight the alignment with these protocols, it can enhance the product quality as an environmentally friendly option. Apart from that, service-wise, every unit is the same. Users can only distinguish those requirements using spectrum analyzers; otherwise, minor data delays of one or two seconds do not matter, but for high-security or high-speed needs, it becomes significant.

Remote work has become simpler and cost-saving but reliability still needs consistent improvement
CloudConnexa can be improved, particularly because they have many features, but they do have stability issues. I see many times where the stability is not good, and I have seen a few outages with a huge ETA for those outages. It takes a while for them to give a proper ETA, and they often come up with workarounds that I need to run for a long time to address stability. For the log stream, they have a facility to forward logs, but they do not have a good dashboard to filter those logs in their dashboard itself, which for troubleshooting often contains meaningless information. The support is good, and they respond immediately, but the stability issues and the engineering work need to be improved. Stability and logging are the main areas that need improvement.
