We performed a comparison between AirMagnet Survey and Ubiquiti WLAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Ekahau, NetAlly, iBwave and others in Network Modeling and Simulation."Clear and easy to use maps."
"Using the products to ensure the safety of our equipment that we have a lot invested in."
"The most valuable features are the survey, spectrum analysis, and reporting."
"The benefit is with the ease of use of the software, I am able to show the customer, "Here is what your wireless coverage looks like." It is set up in a fashion that non-technical people can understand it."
"The most valuable feature is the predictive survey. The antennas' RF patterns are reflected correctly on the drawing when preparing predictive heat maps."
"The heat maps are quite good, and some features are easy to use."
"The addition of the AirMapper software on the nXG and our AirCheck G2s has helped a lot because we're mostly not drilling down into the data. Local managers only need to see the coverage on their end and whether there are performance bottlenecks. These things are easy enough for us to ascertain with iPerf."
"It is reliable and easy to use (user-friendly). The heat mapping, passive network surveying, and doing the heat mapping of a building's wireless network allows me to see what level of coverage an area has."
"The solution has a lot of great features."
"The solution works well and in the short time I have used it, I've enjoyed its capabilities."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"The ease of use and simplicity of the solution is its most valuable feature. This tool is best suited for small environments."
"would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable."
"Ubiquiti provides good connectivity for the end-user, so I think it's stable."
"Its most valuable feature is pricing."
"You can save backups of this controller locally and then I can export it to wherever I want."
"But it's definitely a more expensive solution than other ones."
"When you conduct an active survey and then want to use it for design work, it's actually not very useful."
"It would be nice to have some more training resources for younger techs. We can use them if we need some assistance, but that usually requires one of us who knows what we're doing to calibrate the programs properly."
"Less time consumed doing the real surveys."
"The surveying features are in need of improvement, along with general usability."
"The throughput should be more advanced in the future. They need to add more versions of WiFi than just one."
"Printouts are JPEG printouts. The AirMagnet software is proprietary. I can't send my customers a file, because it is AirMagnet file, even for building projects. I can only send JPEGs or screenshots of heat maps."
"AirMagnet Survey doesn't cover certain devices in the system."
"It is not a stable solution."
"I have never used cloud solutions. My first approach would be something related to the cloud, and backups on the cloud, and maybe an easier way to connect to it because I have an on-premises environment."
"The solution should improve stability."
"Cloud management is one feature that should be included in the next release. This tool is best suited for small environments, not large and complex ones."
"During the configuration, we cannot get information on the network level from the regular interface."
"They could enhance their products by integrating cloud access into each device."
"The coverage could be increased."
"Largely we're happy with the product, however, the firmware deployments could maybe be managed a little bit differently."
AirMagnet Survey is ranked 2nd in Network Modeling and Simulation with 38 reviews while Ubiquiti WLAN is ranked 5th in Wireless LAN with 39 reviews. AirMagnet Survey is rated 8.2, while Ubiquiti WLAN is rated 7.4. The top reviewer of AirMagnet Survey writes "It fixes so many problems quickly that we don't regret spending more on high-end tools than most companies". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Ubiquiti WLAN writes "Helps to build VPNs but improvement is needed in stability ". AirMagnet Survey is most compared with Ekahau Site Survey, Aruba Wireless, AirCheck G3, iBwave Wi-Fi and Wireshark, whereas Ubiquiti WLAN is most compared with Aruba Wireless, Cisco Wireless, Ruckus Wireless, Huawei Wireless and SonicWall SonicWave Access Points.
