Affordable platform with efficient analytics features
Huawei adapters have facilitated seamless integration with mobile devices, extending the LAN's reach. Additionally, including CampusInsight, a component offering analytics and visibility into wireless connectivity, has proven invaluable. This feature enables us to monitor network health and troubleshoot user-related issues efficiently. The reliability has had a positive impact on our operations. I advise others to go for Cisco if cost is not a factor. Otherwise, they can explore other options based on the availability of that OEM within the country. We have Huawei present in our country and provide all the necessary support, so we went forward with them. I rate it a nine out of ten.

They have good specs, and the price is lower than competing solutions
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. They could also enhance the reporting capabilities. At the same time, Omada's reporting has improved considerably in the latest version. That was an issue for us, but now it seems okay. More carrier-grade integrations should be available on Omada access points in the future. They could also add a hot spot and maybe a mobile upload solution. I still have issues from time to time when switching access points. I'm still connected to the SSID, but my signal drops when I switch from 5 Ghz to 2.4 Ghz. I'm not switched to the other access point that is closer to me. I should have been switched automatically to the other access point. Occasionally, the handoff doesn't work. I have tried this with WiFi 6, and it worked fine, so I think they may have resolved this issue in the latest versions.

"The handover is seamless whenever the users connect to the access point."
"The solution offers very good value for money."

"I have a very good experience with this product, so I'm very satisfied with it."
"When this solution is set up, it is solid. It offers fast deployment."

Cons

"Price is one of the major problems of the solution, and because of this, our company's customers want to migrate to some other product from Huawei."
"While I am fine with the current licensing price, I would appreciate it to be more cost-effective."
"Technical support is not great. Whenever I open a case, I don't get any immediate support."
"Huawei Wireless has a small technical problem. When you use a power injector, it needs to be specially configured for the switch to which it is connected."
"The scalability could be a bit better."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes."
"Technical support could be better."
"Omada's ordering platform could be improved, though. Some of their distributors are a pain to work with."
"Upgrading the hardware capabilities to newer versions like Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 would be a helpful improvement."
"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."
"We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem."
"The quality of the hardware needs to be improved."
"It's better for smaller organizations. This would not work for enterprises. It is not very scalable."
"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 solution takes a long time to switch to another connection, which should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is very cost-effective."
"Its price is very good. This wireless system totally costs about 30,000 euros, and some of the other solutions cost about 45,000 euros. It is a difference of 15,000 euros, which is quite a lot of money."
"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."
"Huawei comes at a cheaper price than competitors like Cisco and Aruba."
"The price of Huawei Wireless is very good."
"I rate Huawei Wireless' pricing a five out of ten."
"It is not monthly. It is a kind of perpetual licensing. We pay once depending on the kind of services we need to deliver. There are no licensing fees."
"Extras come with a surcharge."
"TP-Link is a good price. They have a good price. But technology-wise, it has to be better."
"TP-Link provides solutions that are more cost-effective than other well-known brands."
"Its benefit is that it is cost effective."
"We don't have to pay for the license because the solution has no subscription cost."
"There is no need to pay for the licensing costs since my company is in South Africa. Omada Access Points can be termed as a medium-priced product."
"The price of the solution is not a lot for five people to use it."
"On a scale of one to ten for pricing, with one being cheap and ten being expensive, I would rate Omada Access Points at a one for its cost-effectiveness."
"The cost of Omada is much better than Aruba and Cisco, and it does what we need it to do in most cases. Around 10 percent of our clients need a more carrier-grade solution for mobile platforms."
