EWC-Cost Effective Solution
Rating: 9 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Cisco Embedded Wireless Controller for the clients where they need cost effective wireless solution and where not much users are there in their environment. It is best for low and medium size deployment and not recommended at all for large enterprise environment.
Pros
- Good for small infra
- low cost Deployment
- Simple and fast deployment
Cons
- No support for Older APs are there
- wifi 6E device support should atleast be there to EWC
- All APs with EWC support should be having more CPU processing power for better performances
Likelihood to Recommend
Small office like retail shop and office with few users and few AP requirements. In such scenario we can proceed with the EWC deployment as it is cost effective as hardware based WLC is not required and most of the controller features are available on the Embedded controller only
