Pros
"The technical support services are good.""The report model is one of the valuable models. We are able to see all the information concentrated in reports, which is very useful. We are able to get the information about the performance of the equipment and check that everything is okay. You can get very useful information across applications, so we have very good experience with their management solutions. It has many functionalities to simplify the administration and monitor the development of the switches or AP. It is easy to deploy, easy to configure. and easy to develop. Its price is also good.""I need fewer people to do implementation and support, and I don't have to go on-site to change the configuration or otherwise support the switch.""ExtremeManagement brings in the most value by reducing the technical debt to the organization in terms of having to hire personnel to maintain it or contract it.""The best thing about the solution is that it is all managed from just a single application window. We call this feature a single pane of glass due to the fact that almost all the features are all managed within a single application, or a browser, to be more specific."

Cons
"It would be great to not need an on-premises SiteIQ license for running a Fabric OS cloud or managing third-party devices.""It would be helpful if this solution had support for configuring and managing third-party hardware devices.""They can improve the information period. Currently, we are able to have information for only 14 or 15 days, but we would like to have information for an extended period of maybe 30 days. Their technical support can also be improved in terms of the response time to the tickets.""Some features are quite difficult to configure and they are very complicated to figure out. Maybe the vendors should introduce a more driven configuration that can clarify the processes a bit more to make the processes more clearly defined.""There could be better integration with third-party equipment and vendors."

More ExtremeManagement Cons →

"The deployment architecture and installation part needs improvement.""As the technologies evolve, also these solutions or the monitoring tools should evolve to cover the progress in technology, including capabilities related to monitoring of virtualized devices today, as the DNS is on the table in this way.""We had some issues with some of the features, some modules are not meeting expectations.""The solution should integrate with NAC servers.""The way the solution currently works means I'm not able to customize my own reports.""They should add AI options in the product's next release.""The dashboards are not customizable and it's not user-friendly.""Right now, we have open tickets and they are not closing as expected."
