A solution for site verifications and enhanced with adapters that provide more realistic readings, but needs to support Wi-Fi 6E
Ekahau and AirMagnet Survey have their own pros and cons, in my opinion. For example, the APs are not visible in Ekahau but AirMagnet Survey allows us to see what APs and channels are being used in a live view, which Ekahau lacks. In Ekahau, the signal from the AP it's capturing at that time is visible which is a bit of an inconvenience. The predictive planner of AirMagnet's is better. However, Ekahau has advantages over AirMagnet because it groups all the SSIDs into one AP, whereas with AirMagnet, one needs to group them manually. Ekahau also supports Wi-Fi 6E, but its licensing is restrictive and more costly.

It's a simple entry-level tool that's easy to set up, but it has some limitations on speed and IP targets
OneTouch is an entry-level testing tool that's coming to the end of its life, I believe, so it has limitations. For example, it can only test up to 1 gig of network speed. It would be helpful if they increased that to 10 gigs. It is also limited in the number of IP targets you can test. If you want to test how many hops or different sites, you should be able to hit a test button and say, "Right then, test these 20 IP addresses to see if I can reach them." It only does up to 10. Most of NetAlly's other devices, like the G2, can do unlimited addresses.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I will definitely suggest the AirMagnet solution for WiFi implementations."
"The predictive survey is the most valuable feature. I use it quite often."
"We use the solution for Wi-Fi and networks."
"We haven't really used any other solution because there really wasn't anything out there like AirMagnet."
"Technical support is very good."
"The heat maps are quite good, and some features are easy to use."
"It’s the essential tool for conducting an audit and identifying interference sources on a wireless network and improve the channel tuning."
"AirMagnet is a very stable and time-tested product."
"The training features are very valuable for me."
"Fluke makes a good product that is rather unique in the marketplace, in my opinion."
"Fluke’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for."
"For me, it's easy to use, it always gives me accurate information, it's never crashed or had issues, and the way it's designed lets you pull the module off and put a different type of module on to do other stuff."
"OneTouch is easy to set up. You just plug it in, enter your details, and off you go. It only takes a few minutes as long as you've got Link-Live access or network access."
"OneTouch is easy to set up; you just plug it in, enter your details, and off you go, and it only takes a few minutes as long as you've got Link-Live access or network access."
 

Cons

"The surveying features are in need of improvement, along with general usability."
"I would just like to see integration of more wireless cards to have a broader group of cards you could use, instead of just a couple of specific ones."
"Stability is not really too good when you have larger floor plans."
"The pricing and licensing are expensive, but for us, it was fair."
"AirMagnet Survey doesn't cover certain devices in the system."
"The worst thing that is built into AirMagnet is, if your laptop crashes in the middle, all of the work you have done is gone."
"We have had a problem with the reporting module, as it can't put the full size picture of a floor plan in the report."
"My biggest complaint is their training shouldn't be so expensive."
"With my Fluke OneTouch, I did encounter stability issues."
"The dashboard is one area with room for improvement."
"I think they're a little steep on the pricing side, but you take what you get."
"There is no scalability for OneTouch. If you want to do other things with it, you can't."
"The RJ45 jack on top of the Linkrunner has not been able to handle the constant usage at my last location and current employer."
"It is also limited in the number of IP targets you can test. If you want to test how many hops or different sites, you should be able to hit a test button and say, "Right then, test these 20 IP addresses to see if I can reach them." It only does up to 10. Most of NetAlly's other devices, like the G2, can do unlimited addresses."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing needs improvement."
"The tool's pricing is medium."
"For technical support, you need an annual license, but it is not worth it."
"This product is very expensive."
"The moment we began needing more of the vendor's support, the cost became very high; we switched to another solution."
"There is an annual cost of the solution. There are some additional charges, such as support and maintenance."
"The licensing of AirMagnet Survey is different when compared to Ekahu. It is a third of the cost of Ekahau but there are no dedicated laptops to the Sidekick. AirMagnet allows you to license an adapter and share that adapter."
