Though we use the solution internally, we mainly install the solution for clients. My clients have been very happy.

I switched to this solution due to the cost of other solutions.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was very simple and it did not require advanced training.

This solution is low cost and it has a simple cost structure with no recurring fees.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
My clients always evaluate other options, such as Cisco, Meraki, Aruba, Aerohive, and others.
What other advice do I have?
- Read the documentation.
- Understand that there is not a centralized controller required.
- Realize that it is not “Cisco,” but you are also not paying at that level.
- Engage someone that knows how to design a WiFi solution and can conduct a true pre-install survey and post-install survey.
- Get someone who uses tools like AirMagnet or Ekahau to do the survey, not someone walking around with good phone reading signal strength who guesses.
- If you invest in the survey and the good design, you will still save money over any other solution on the market.
