Affordable platform with efficient analytics features
Huawei adapters have facilitated seamless integration with mobile devices, extending the LAN's reach. Additionally, including CampusInsight, a component offering analytics and visibility into wireless connectivity, has proven invaluable. This feature enables us to monitor network health and troubleshoot user-related issues efficiently. The reliability has had a positive impact on our operations. I advise others to go for Cisco if cost is not a factor. Otherwise, they can explore other options based on the availability of that OEM within the country. We have Huawei present in our country and provide all the necessary support, so we went forward with them. I rate it a nine out of ten.
Prasad Wijesooriya - PeerSpot reviewer
Well-suited for mobile and portable device usage but issues with stability
The problem is that when the number of users increases, TP-Link automatically drops the speed, and in terms of coverage, it falls short. We are not using any industrial-level equipment or accuracy. We are looking for something at the industrial level, advanced Access Points, not the basic ones from TP-Link. Omada Access Points could be improved in terms of connectivity and speed. That is the main thing. The other thing is security. Currently, most people are sharing their passwords, allowing unauthorized users to access Wi-Fi networks. So, the main areas for improvement are security, accessibility, and speed.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution has high performance and we are using Wi-Fi 6 that we have found to be the best coverage."
"This solution is very simple and the interface is user-friendly."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"That would be more of engineering at this point. I'm from more of the business side. It's pretty much doing the standard installations with portal integrations and integrations with the Mac."
"What I like most about Huawei Wireless is that it's customizable. It has many unique features, such as encryption, spatial streams, hiding features for different scenarios, low-density and high-density areas, and smart antennas."
"The solution offers very good value for money."
"At the moment, I only have experience with the on-premise deployment of Huawei Wireless, but the cloud solution looks good on paper. It looks perfect. I can say that Huawei's cybersecurity is very good, stable, and works for long periods. My company has four devices running uptime for more than four years without stopping. I also like that the support for Huawei Wireless is swift, and support does precisely what you require, at least from the point of view of the technical engineer who communicated with Huawei support, as I'm more of a technical sales guy. Good technical support is vital to my company, partners, and customers. My company had this ongoing project with an ISP provider in Bulgaria that bought some routers. Still, the existing equipment was a completely different brand, so this provider wanted to migrate to Huawei Wireless and wanted help while migrating the existing infrastructure to Huawei, so the technical engineer assigned to raise the ticket with Huawei for checking and setting parameters correctly provided feedback about Huawei technical support being good quality-wise and TAT-wise. The technical engineer was also Cisco-certified and Juniper-certified and was not experienced with Huawei equipment. Still, he did mention that the Huawei Wireless router interface was straightforward, and even a person who's new to it would find it easy to configure. Huawei Wireless is user-friendly, which is another pro of the solution. It's easy to manage, and even the program language setting can be done with fewer commands than Juniper and Cisco equipment. Some of the features in Juniper need an external program, and the same features can be found in Huawei Wireless built-in, which I find remarkable."
"We've found the solution to be quite stable."
"We use Omada Access Points for the network and Wi-Fi."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its price."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is easy to deploy and reliable."
"Its sturdiness and cost-effectiveness are the most valuable features."
"The performance and availability of Omada Access Points have met our business needs, particularly in improving network control and facilitating direct access for developers to branch services."
"Omada is a good solution that I would recommend, and it is less expensive while providing good results."
"The solution has been dependable and has kept up with modern technology."
"The pricing is reasonable."
 

Cons

"Cloud integration needs to be improved."
"I'd like to see some after-sales support. It's a little bit below the expectations we had."
"There was one time I had a problem with their centralized licensing. I called the Indian call center, but the response was not that good. One guy attended this call and he told me, "Definitely, I am forwarding your call to the next level. I'll let you know." After that, it took between 10 to 15 hours before I got a call back. By then, we had already resolved the issue. Therefore, they could improve the local support; there should be at very good Tier 1 and 2 support in India. They should be both proactive and reactive."
"They should include more security features in the solution."
"What needs improvement in Huawei Wireless is after-sales support. I've faced many after-sales support issues, so that's the area I want Huawei to improve. Having an SLA with customers is what I'd suggest to Huawei Wireless."
"They should actually first test the equipment thoroughly and then launch it. Sometimes, things come out too soon, before they are ready."
"The manageability could be improved."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"The technical support could be improved."
"The solution takes a long time to switch to another connection, which should be improved."
"Omada's ordering platform could be improved, though. Some of their distributors are a pain to work with."
"We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem."
"It's better for smaller organizations. This would not work for enterprises. It is not very scalable."
"Omada needs improvement in the distance it can cover."
"Aruba has better scaling capabilities."
"The price of the solution is an area requiring improvement since I want the solution to be made available at a cheaper price than its current market price."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not monthly. It is a kind of perpetual licensing. We pay once depending on the kind of services we need to deliver. There are no licensing fees."
"The price is good for the solution and there is a license required."
"Huawei comes at a cheaper price than competitors like Cisco and Aruba."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive solution."
"Extras come with a surcharge."
"The product has a good price."
"Huawei licenses can be for either a one-year up to a five-year period and also apply for the tiers."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"There is no need to pay for the licensing costs since my company is in South Africa. Omada Access Points can be termed as a medium-priced product."
"Its benefit is that it is cost effective."
"The cost is about 500 Brazilian real per access point, with no additional recurring costs."
"The cost of Omada is much better than Aruba and Cisco, and it does what we need it to do in most cases. Around 10 percent of our clients need a more carrier-grade solution for mobile platforms."
"The price of the solution is not a lot for five people to use it."
"The price is affordable, and we haven't had any additional costs due to having a limited number of users."
"We don't have to pay for the license because the solution has no subscription cost."
"On a scale of one to ten for pricing, with one being cheap and ten being expensive, I would rate Omada Access Points at a one for its cost-effectiveness."
