Lacking in performance, difficult and complicated in its use, but stable and scalable
Pros and Cons
- "One could say that Cambium is a scalable solution."
- "One could say that Cambium is a scalable solution."
- "The Cambium user interface and configuration should be improved."
- "I did not like this solution from the get go and have no interest in it, as it is entirely not good for the end-user."
What is our primary use case?
The version I am using involves the model I am utilizing for testing.
We use the solution for data sharing and file sending. We test any environment when it comes to sharing among people who are roaming.
What needs improvement?
I did not like this solution from the get go and have no interest in it, as it is entirely not good for the end-user.
There are no features that I have found to be most valuable. The solution offers no features that cannot be found in other products.
In the three to four months since I started testing the product I have found its performance to be lacking and it to be very difficult and complicated. The interface is difficult.
The Cambium user interface and configuration should be improved. The configuration is very complicated and not user friendly.
The solution should be BLE enabled. In a recent review I conducted of Cisco 9115 and Cisco 9100 it came to my attention that both of these products are BLE enabled.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been testing Cambium for three to four months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
One could say that the solution is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
One could say that Cambium is a scalable solution.
It is not being extensively used, although we do have plans to increase the usage.
How are customer service and technical support?
Technical support is not very good. It's very hard to initiate the technical support. One would have to make a huge effort in this areas since we are talking about a new product that nobody is familiar with. This will take time. If a person were to open a car manufacturing plant, he would expect the product to provide support of after sales service, Yet, if the technical support were not good the question would arise as to whether he would wish to buy the product again.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was complex.
The user interface is very complicated and not well defined. Configuring is very difficult. In contrast, Cisco is very straightforward and user-friendly when it comes to installation and configuration.
The duration of the deployment depends on the person's knowledge.
What about the implementation team?
We made use of a consultant for the deployment. Our experience with him was what one would typically expect.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
When it comes to licensing costs we have been using the Cambium devices on a trial basis.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I am not comfortable with Cambium because it will take time for it to attain the viability in the user market that Cisco has, which is a market leader geared for large enterprises. This will only change once Cambium provides a big boost and makes the necessary changes needed to have a very good user product. But, Cisco is Cisco.
What other advice do I have?
We have ten users making use of the solution. While five departments will deploy a single Cambium device, the same users are using it.
My advice to others is that the configuration should be user-friendly and uncomplicated.
I rate Cambium as a five out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Pros and Cons
- "Technical support has been good."
- "It is reasonably priced and has good technical support."
- "The installation and configuration are a bit complex."
- "The installation and configuration are a bit complex."
What is our primary use case?
It is good for small hospitals and small shops because they are places where there are more people in a small area.
What is most valuable?
It is reasonably priced and has good technical support.
What needs improvement?
I think the installation and configuration could be easier. A bit more user friendly software for configuration would be good.
The stability could be improved as well.

We've been using it for a couple of months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I think it could be more stable.
How are customer service and technical support?
Technical support has been good.
How was the initial setup?
The installation was a bit complex. It took about an hour or two for one access point.
What about the implementation team?
We used a vendor team during implementation.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I think the pricing is fine for Cambium.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate Cambium at six, on a scale from one to ten. The price and technical support are good, but the installation is a bit complex.

Stable with good performance and an easy initial setup
Pros and Cons
- "The initial setup is easy to handle. It's quite simple."
- "In terms of performance, even in small items, everything is very good."
- "The solution needs to add an LTE solution and/or something in 3.5GHz."
- "The solution can sometimes be very slow and clunky."
What is our primary use case?
We use the solution as an internet service provider to the end-user, individual user, for direct collaboration, and in the government offices.
What is most valuable?
Cambium is really nice. I used to use Ubiquiti and that solution was fine for a while. However, Cambium is better because as they have eEPMP 400. In Africa, you need a low price. You also need to get a lot of customers.
In terms of performance, even in small items, everything is very good.
The initial setup is easy to handle. It's quite simple.
What needs improvement?
The solution isn't as well known in the country. Most people are more familiar with Ubiquiti, and that solution has a lot of other options.
Pricing isn't ideal and could be improved.
The solution can sometimes be very slow and clunky.
The solution needs to add an LTE solution and/or something in 3.5GHz.
For how long have I used the solution?
I originally started working with the solution in 2014. It's been a number of years now since I was first introduced to the solution.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is quite stable. It's very reliable for our clients. It doesn't crash or freeze. It doesn't seem to have bugs or glitches.
That said, sometimes, for streaming in the country, we have issues. They're just minor. It's not a big problem.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is quite scalable. If a company needs to expand the solution, they should be able to.
How are customer service and technical support?
I've never personally dealt with technical support, therefore I can't speak to their level of service.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We've used Ubiquiti in the past and prefer Cambium over Ubiquiti. There were a lot of problems previously and customers were complaining it wasn't working right, so we had to abandon Ubiquiti. Now the customers seem to be content.
In some cases, we still use Ubiquiti, although it's rare now. We also occasionally use an AT&T PS 300.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is not complex. It's very easy to implement.
The deployment is almost instantaneous. It only takes a minute.
You only need one person to handle deployment and maintenance.
What about the implementation team?
We implement this solution for our clients as a service provider.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution is a bit pricey. There are extra costs, for example, for equipment or hardware that isn't included, such as cables, etc. It's not too expensive, however.
What other advice do I have?
We're a service provider and a customer. We're working with an older version of the product. We have ePMP 2000 and we want to upgrade to 3000, which we will be doing soon. We plan to use the solution into the future.
I'd recommend the solution, and recommend everyone uses PMP.
I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. It's worked very well for us.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Positive
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is straightforward and takes between 15 to 30 minutes. However, if it's in a warehouse, it is very hard to deploy, and we have to wait for some vehicles that can bring a person or the height.
What about the implementation team?
We implemented the solution in-house.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
A license is required for its warranty and extension, and its price is good.
