System Engineer at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Wireless projects run smoothly with more access point support and competitive pricing
D-Link Wireless offers more supported APs to the WLC with the default license compared to other brands like Cisco. With Cisco, only four to five APs are connected with the default license, but D-Link Wireless provides more flexibility. Local support in Pakistan is necessary for those with limited budgets, creating a reach in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have 200 to 250 users and the solution can scale without any problem."
"The setup process is very easy."
"It's scalable, user friendly, and easy to manage."
"For small businesses, this is definitely a product that I recommend."
"I like the product's signal continuity and range. We can receive the signal up to 20-30 meters from the wireless antenna."
"This product is user-friendly and we can manage it as per the requirements of the user."
"Overall, I rate D-Link Wireless nine out of ten as a solution."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"This solution is very simple and the interface is user-friendly."
"The solution's most valuable feature is mobility or seamless roaming."
"Overall, I am satisfied with the solution."
"It provides high-speed network connections."
"The solution is very user-friendly and easy to use."
"All of the features are valuable in Huawei Wireless."
"I am impressed with the tool's seamless integration."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its simplicity."
 

Cons

"The stability could be a bit better."
"Sometimes, the solution needs to be restarted."
"Its interface and support system need much improvement. Sometimes, when we use the interface to reset the password and configure SSIDs, or some other changes, the "Save" option does not show and we have to go to some internal setting and then we can "save" the setting. The “Save” option should be in front of or below of the settings."
"Sometimes we configure the SSID with a password but the same AP shows two WiFi connections with the same SSID name (one is protected by a password and another one give access without a password)."
"D-Link Wireless’s stability needs improvement."
"The solution's performance could be improved."
"The solution has been mostly stable; it sometimes fluctuates, however, largely, it is good."
"In future, it would also be good to have a switch within D Link that works as well as the Cisco 9200 Switch."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"The technical support needs to be improved. They also need to produce some more technical guides."
"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."
"The manageability of radio frequencies to avoid overlapping needs improvement."
"Huawei Wireless is not scalable. We have had a problem with the solution because it cannot integrate with other servers as the other competitors can."
"Technical support is not ideal. They sometimes cannot connect to the wireless access point or their connection drops."
"Improving the visibility, control offered, and cloud management would all be very helpful. Also how you can monetize the information you get from Wi-Fi controllers should be improved."
"They should include more security features in the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"D-Link pricing is very competitive when you consider other OEMs."
"The product is affordable."
"There is no licensing fee for the solution."
"This solution is more affordable than others on the market."
"D-Link Wireless is cheaper than Ruckus or Cisco."
"D-Link Wireless' price is the same as Aruba's. You need to pay one-time costs for the product."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap and ten is very expensive, I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"The cost can range from $100 to $400."
"The price of Huawei Wireless is reasonable. The licenses are active, and everything is working fine as per the license agreement."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price of Huawei Wireless is very good."
"Right now, my company made a one-time purchase of Huawei Wireless. It depends, but in most of the projects where customers buy hardware with some software, it's a one-time purchase. Customers pay a yearly fee for other projects for support and additional software features, such as email protection firmware updates for cybersecurity. You'll also receive information about the latest attacks and get more protection if you pay an additional fee apart from the standard license fee. You'll also get an additional warranty for Huawei Wireless, a yearly contract."
"It is very cost-effective."
"Huawei Wireless is one of the cheapest options in the marketplace."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive solution."
"Huawei Wireless is a cheaper solution when you compare it to the cost of other similar solutions. It has one of the most competitive prices out there."
