An on-premises solution that allows users to do some configuration without much exposure to the cloud platform

ExtremeWireless offers profiles, policies, and tags. The entire architecture is divided into multiple sections like tags, policies, and profiles. If I have two sites, and one site needs to be configured with different SSIDs and radio settings, it's completely different compared to the site. It's not a global configuration, and you can individually divide the sites with the profiles, policies and tags to assign the configurations to the tags of the respective sites. When doing the upgrades, you can do the site-based or location-based things. So that's a very cool feature in ExtremeWireless, which has been running for a long time. Recently, Cisco 9800 models have been offering the same kind of features.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Extreme isn't the most expensive, but it's not a low-cost solution, and because there are no big volumes, you don't receive significant discounts, making the final price higher."

"The price of the solution overall is expensive. Additionally, the controller and license are expensive. We pay for an annual subscription."

"The solution has a yearly subscription, and we have to pay additional costs for technical support."

"It's not as expensive as some and is scalable to our needs."

"ExtremeWireless isn't budget-friendly. The hardware costs around 20,000 Indian rupees. We're still using an older controller, so it doesn't require a license, unlike the newest versions of the ExtremeWireless controller."

"I rate the product's pricing a three or four out of ten."

"We pay approximately $30,000 per year."

"The purchase of 350 access points cost approximately $250,000 USD."
