Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"What I like best about ExtremeCloud IQ is its ease of use. Flexibility is another pro of ExtremeCloud IQ. I also find ExtremeCloud IQ feature-rich.""Ability to assign zero trust policies from the user.""Its configuration and deployment are the most valuable.""The tech who handles Extreme IQ tells me it's easy to use and learn. He felt like it was pretty intuitive. It comes with solid training materials. He also has talked about the security features that give you as much or as little control as you want.""HiveManager is incredibly useful for managing APs and switches from one cloud interface.""Everything can be seen from the dashboard.""The HiveManager integration with the VPN Gateway is awesome.""The technical support for this solution is good."

"Integration with other vendors is possible.""The profiler option allows me to see every detail in a systematic manner from a switch. I can choose the switch and I can see the port NAC address and time.""Ivanti NAC's most valuable feature is reasonable pricing."

More Ivanti NAC Pros →

Cons
"The dashboard and stability need to be improved.""Need port aggregation on the 2384 switches to take full advantage of ac on the APs. I understand that is on their product road map.""We'd like to have a cloud dashboard from which we can see all devices.""Certain features only exist or work in certain versions.""An area for improvement in ExtremeCloud IQ is its technical support. Support could be better, especially when you need help concerning ExtremeCloud IQ and WinG.""The Virtual Appliance crashed once while doing an upgrade. The good thing here is, even if the management system fails, all our networks and features still remain 100% stable and working.""For me, the only issue is the potential delay in the tool statistics updating in real time after making changes.""I know a school district, a big school district of mine, ripped out Extreme due to inefficiencies. It was the guest network that can be a struggle. They tried to differentiate between their primary network, and then offer a secondary."

More ExtremeCloud IQ Cons →

"The product's performance needs improvement.""The documentation needs to be improved. There are a lot of details that are missed which makes it confusing.""At some point, the server got cached and we faced several issues that impacted our customers. We would like to have this resolved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Although the pricing is a bit high, I consider Aerohive to be well worth the money."
  • "Buy near the end of Q4 in order to get a deal."
  • "Bring the cost down."
  • "I would advise that you be sure to compare apples with apples. Many customers just look at the price per AP and licences, and compare that against other solutions. But, they do not look at the complete picture such as: TCO - how much the equipment will cost you over, say, seven years? Will the customer need to change complete infrastructure when they want to buy the newest hardware? Does support include a lifetime warranty and RMA?"
  • "For example, if you compare Aruba vs Aerohive, you need to check which licences from Aruba you need to match the functionality of Aerohive (usually you need at least three types of licences and a controller with redundancy). The same goes with Cisco, where you need buy additional licences for central management, firewall, spectral analysis, WIPS, PPSK, etc. Aerohive has a very simple model - one licence for all the functionalities - and you can believe that there are many. One licence makes it easy to maintain, scale, renew and you can plan your costs 10 years in advance."
  • "Start small and grow big. You can choose the basic Aerohive Connect free subscription solution and, later, if needed (in terms of functionality) you can upgrade to Aerohive Select."
  • "There are probably cheaper solutions but we invest for stability and performance for the longer haul."
  • "I did a multi-year license. It was a three-year license. It compares well with others in terms of the price. It is about a hundred dollars per year on a three-year scale."
