ExtremeCloud SD-WAN vs. Contrail Networking (discontinued)

Aerohive was ahead of the industry when it came to Wireless network hardware and software. Initially, they were one of the first to offer a solution for a busy office environment with a complicated layout and multiple rooms, open areas, and offices that were spread out. The mesh design of the APS was also one of the first of its kind and has proven to be a great solution within our environment.

We also considered both Cisco and Juniper, but Extreme Networks Wireless WAN met our budgetary and technology needs the best.

The platforms are very similar in networking concepts, at the interface level I found it easier to use Juniper Contrail than Cisco ACI. And at the cost level, I think it is cheaper.

• The speed of our Wireless network has significantly improved.
• The range of the network covers our entire user area, simply due to the power and range of the APs as well as the mesh network capabilities.
• The capability of the software to configure, monitor, and alert based on network traffic and user behavior is almost unmatched.
