They appreciate the convenience and flexibility of having a mobile device that can effectively serve as their command center. In addition, emergency service vehicles rely on the product as a mobile internet device, utilizing it as part of a failover system to ensure uninterrupted connectivity, especially in Chicago's unpredictable weather conditions. The cellular failover solution has proven to be reliable and independent of physical lines, effectively covering all connectivity needs for various locations across the Chicagoland area. Users have praised its ability to provide seamless and consistent connectivity, even in challenging environments.

We utilize these devices in a couple of aspects.
1. They are mobile devices to give us internet access to create or "duplicate" our Dispatch center at basically any location. Provides phone and Internet for access to software applications utilized for EMS dispatch.
2. Mobile internet devices for access in emergency service vehicles.
  • Provide Internet Access.
  • Ability to Control and configure remotely.
  • Dependable cellular coverage and access.
It has worked great for our emergency vehicles and mobile remote dispatch stations. We did have them at other bases as secondary internet access in the event of failure of our fiber, but I have found that is not as useful as we thought it may have been. I have temporarily disabled cellular on those devices and just did not have the need for it.

Cradle points disappoint.

Our organization is an MSP that has partnered with a large healthcare provider to stand up a mobile medical unit to assist patients all over the country. We purchased a few of the cradle point devices to install in the units with a full network cabinet, in addition, to building out a full HIPAA secured mobile workstation.
  • Better than other solutions for integration with full network cabinet.
  • Better build quality that others.
  • External antenna connector.
If redundancy (dual sim slots for failover) and minimal hardware is what you are looking for then the cradle point does a great job and with the option of an external antenna, it adds lots of versatility to the setup. However, the throughput and the management portal really put a damper on our opinion of going with this product again as the throughput was around half of that of other solutions with the same card.

Cradlepoint lets you have internet where internet is not available

Used for the owner of the company that lives in a remote location with no landline internet.
  • Easy to configure
  • Works with most mobile providers
  • Reliable
Great for use when the landline is not an option. Needs to have a strong cellular signal in the area.

Cradlepoint IRC300C route GREAT!

Needed connectivity for a construction crew trailer office on our property during a rebuild of a tornado-damaged section of our campus. The CradlePoints worked awesomely!!
  • Provide connections for internet via cellular
  • Manage the traffic well
  • Gives you insight to the usage and traffic patterns
When you need connections and cannot run wire to the location. This solution offers great WiFi connectivity!

We use the Cradlepoint solution as our secondary and tertiary failover solution for our network.
  • Ease of setup. After the SIM card is installed, you can have the device up in a matter of minutes.
  • Central management using NetCloud.
  • You get the bang for your buck.
It is suited for any company, small or large, who needs a cellular solution for failover and even as their primary connection to the internet.

Affordable and Reliable Failover Cellular Hardware, with a huge ROI and peace of mind.

We use Cradlepoint cellular routers as part of our failover systems. In Chicago, the weather is a big factor when it comes to uptime. No matter the internet carrier, we see quite a bit of outages for all of our locations across the Chicagoland area. We decided to go with a cellular failover so that our backup was not dependent on physical lines, and it has paid off. We now have a reliable wireless failover that covers all of our needs.
  • The device is a nice compact unit, with great reception in all areas of Chicago.
  • Set up and configuration was very easy.
  • The Netcloud Management portal service is a must! It allows me to manage all of our Cradelpoint from a management console.
Not to sell Cradlepoint short, but the device we use is a router. No different than any other router, except with a cellular WAN. The device was easy to deploy, reliable, and backed by a great support team. I recommend this as part of ISP fail-over planning. Plus, Cellular is cheap. Cost per location is $50 per month for Verizon service that gets used four-five days of the year.
