Aerohive Wireless (legacy products)
Overall Satisfaction with ExtremeWireless
We use Aerohive APs throughout our warehouses to support our distribution as well as supply chain. It addresses all issues with connecting the thousands of device that relies on our APs to communicate and connect to our core infrastructure services.
- Ease of use and Management. The process of implementing APs is straight forward and managing the wireless infrastructure is quite simple and efficient.
- Coverage: we are very happy with the distance each AP coverages in our warehouses without having any drop issues or over implementing APs.
- Cost competitive versus other cloud managed wi-fi solutions such as Cisco, Aruba or Mist.
- A mobile app would be great to manage the Infrastructure.
- The browser load time is quite long sometimes making troubleshooting slow.
- Better integration with Windows cloud services for management and authentication.
- It improved productivity for our warehouse workers when using scanning guns that are connected to our APs.
- Ease of use for our helpdesk to troubleshoot basic issues and could down on the cost of managing the wireless core service.
- Expansion of our infrastructure is less tedious than other solutions and the implementation phase is short.
- Cisco Meraki Wireless Access Point, Extreme Networks Wireless WAN and Aruba Networks Wireless LAN (WLAN)
It was a product that fit our business needs so we selected Aerohive based on cost, product functionality, and performance.
