Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers

We use Cisco Wireless LAN controllers to control many offices in our company. It manages the ability to break out the access and functionality of how the Wireless experience works for Groups, Departments, employees and guest access. We use it for managing corporate office and remote office APs. It resolves the business problem of having to go to a remote office just to manage an AP; you can easily manage them remotely, configure them, and even power them on.

Cisco Wireless LAN controllers are very reliable, provide ease of managing multiple Access Points, and compared to other name brand Wireless LAN controllers, I found Cisco's be among the best . While Cisco can be more expensive, you get what you pay for, a more reliable product and excellent support. If you are managing more the 8 to 10 APs and multiple locations, you will easily see the benefits of the Wireless LAN controller: you get central management of all APs, can easily deploy APs in remote locations, and can power on APs as needed.
In a corporate office where you have many visitors, you can provide secure isolated access for visitors keeping the corporate network secure. You can manage how it is connected, and monitor for any issues that may arise
