Ekahau Site Survey Reviews

• Planning a WiFi network: You can estimate the number of APs you need without error. It works fine!
• It is perfect for knowing the problems of a WiFi network. You can see the radio state.

With this tool, you can plan the WiFi network without error.

This tool needs too many of the resources (RAM) of your PC.

I have used it for five years.

We have not encountered any deployment issues.

We have not encountered any stability issues.

We have not encountered any scalability issues.

The customer service answers quickly and correctly. If you have a problem, they solve it.

I did not previously use a different solution.

The use of this tool is very easy. In addition, you have many tutorials on the Ekahau website.

Before choosing this product, I did not evaluate other options.

I use Ekahau Site Survey for heat mapping wireless coverage.

Ekahau lets you create heat maps without doing the initial survey. It makes the task easier. 

When a version goes out of support, sometimes the newer version isn't already available. There should be an option to import, and maybe access points can be added to the other version as well. 

Most features are there, but the network adapter support should be better. Ekahau should support all laptops and versions. There's an issue with the driver too.

I've used Ekahau for the last two years.

Installing Ekahau is straightforward. You install it on a Windows machine, and that's it.

I did the installation by myself.

The pricing is quite expensive. Not all companies can afford it

I've tried NetScout and Acrylic. We're comparing them, and we'll buy them if they meet our needs.

I rate Ekahau Site Survey eight out of 10. Go for it if you can afford it.

I have found the most valuable feature is the RF interference and integration capabilities. While upgrading or adding on different hardware to a solution you need to use propriety hardware from the manufacturer sometimes for it to be compatible, this solution integrates well with other hardware. Additionally, the solution is reliable and has a high percentage of accuracy.

Sometimes there is a cancellation between two signals that the solution is not able to monitor correctly, this could improve in the future. I believe there is some kind of scattering happening preventing the solution from detecting the two signals correctly.

In a future release, I would like to see integration with wifi controllers, such as Aruba controllers.

I have been using the solution for many years.

The stability is very good with this solution. 

The initial installation is straightforward. It is easy, you can do it in a matter of minutes.

The solution is priced fairly for the features that you receive. 

There are solutions that can provide some of the functionality of the solution for free. 

I rate Ekahau Site Survey a nine out of ten.
