Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers
So wireless line controllers are used to basically manage our wireless access points throughout the enterprise. Specifically, I manage the controllers for several hospitals, many clinics, and a couple of business offices as well.
- It does keep track of our wireless access points particularly well I guess, and then just, you know, providing the current status of access points as well.
- Oh my goodness. The GUI, the graphical user interface of this product, I'm speaking specifically of the 5508 and 8510 models needs a lot of improvement. I do not like using it. It's buggy glitchy. At times I have to reload pages several times to actually get any work done. Things don't get saved correctly. It's just I can't rely on it being consistent at all.
The newest one we're moving to is the 9800 series. And I just have a very limited experience with those. It seems to be better so far. We'll see more options I guess for configurability on the new ones as well, which is nice. And I like the way that the controllers pair together better than they did with the older controllers.
