High scalability network management with centralized control and an intuitive interface that provides efficient monitoring and configuration capabilities
A centralized platform is crucial for efficiently managing all of our switches, which were previously handled individually, leading to significant challenges. This unified dashboard simplifies tasks like simultaneous switch upgrades, streamlining the process. It enables us to create reports that monitor site statuses, including uptime and downtime, which helps us evaluate each site's monthly uptime and assess its revenue potential based on operational time.

Experience seamless management for diverse network needs and ensure data sovereignty
The integration of LANCOM Management Cloud with on-prem resources for hybrid environments needs improvement. The LMC has been in development for about five years. Compared to Mist systems, the big vendors are better integrated. For Wi-Fi analysis with Hamina, for instance, it can connect through an API with Ruckus, Cisco, or Aruba, but they don't do that with LANCOM systems yet. The APIs are well-documented, but you have to implement them yourself. For very large venues that need integration with other parties, the integration could be better. It's a matter of resources, as LANCOM systems doesn't have the capacity of Cisco. It's a smaller company, more of a niche player, but they do it really well. Their focus is on quality of devices and digital sovereignty. Every six weeks there is a new version of the LMC with new features added. Since the LMC is cloud-based, updates happen automatically in the background. For large projects, LANCOM is quite cooperative in writing custom APIs. For example, if you have a project with 500 access points, 20 switches, and some firewalls, and you need specific API support, they will develop it if the project is large enough. They are also quick to resolve issues - we once had a bug in a school installation with 150 access points, reported it on Monday, and had a solution by Wednesday.
