SD-WAN done right.
- Standardization of solution delivery and client management (SD-WAN, Failover, Management, 4G LTE/WIFI as WAN/Ethernet, access control).
- NetCloud Manger provides simple deployment, maintenance, configuration, provisioning, and user/virtual network management in one tool.
- Equipment is highly robust, reliable, well supported, feature rich.
- CradlePoint engineers are highly skilled and very helpful. Top-notch NOC support.
- Good variety of solutions for customers of most sizes. From individual to small enterprise, there is a "right-sized" product available with all the high-end features you need, at prices suitable for the audience. Even the smallest and least-expensive routers pack almost all of the enterprise features.
- Cradlepoint NetCloud virtual backplane bandwidth is improving but could limit some very large enterprise customers without creative network segmentation.
- Further improvements to simplify NetCloud Manager use would be appreciated.
- User license management and compliance tools need to be clarified and simplified.
Many small companies need enterprise-class features but don't have the user count to justify purchasing enterprise-class solutions. It is not that they don't need advanced features, it's just that enterprise vendors assume that small companies only have basic needs. It is not true, but you can't buy a solution that is only sold in hundreds of seats if you have 25 users in your company.
Cradlepoint NetCloud does a good job of getting this right. You can buy a single seat or hundreds of seats, and the price is truly commensurate with your seat count. Everyone gets the enterprise features, you only pay for the seats you need.
- Cradlepoint NetCloud has done for our managed services what VMWare did for our server room.
- Even as a small, focused company, we can deliver enterprise-class solutions to other companies of all sizes.
- The flexibility and feature-rich ecosystem allows true, remote reconfiguration which allows us to be responsive to to the changing requirements of our clients.
- Changes to client network configurations now take a few mouse inputs and key strokes, instead of on-site visits and console cables.
- We can quote, configure, and drop ship solutions directly from the Cradlepoint partner with confidence without leaving our desks, knowing that the tweaks and customizations we used to have to do in-shop will be waiting on the router when it is turned on.
Cradlepoint's NetCloud makes VPN as easy as it can get.
- Support: They are always quick to respond.
- The NetCloud service: It has never gone down in the four + years I have been using it.
- Pricing is very competitive.
- The portal is a little bit confusing.
- It has freed me up to do more productive things instead of troubleshooting the VPN.
- It has made my employees happier because they have less frustrations working from home or on the road.
