Centralized console has streamlined multi‑cloud management and supports automated operations
Apart from the centralized management console, Aviatrix gives the additional advantage or simplifies the way we manage the cloud environments. When it comes to troubleshooting or more networking-related issues, the native cloud solution has limited options available within the cloud environment. Aviatrix provides those additional benefits to manage effectively when managing troubleshooting or issues. Aviatrix is making our day-to-day job easier and also saving a lot of time because it gives options for cloud-to-cloud peering, as well as a transit hub and spoke architecture. It simplifies how we manage the multi-cloud environment through the single console, and the connectivity options become very easier. Aviatrix supports the automation platform. It supports Infrastructure as Code (IAC), which makes deployment faster with automation. This reduces operational overhead. Aviatrix has positively impacted my organization by making management and administration easier, allowing us to manage all the cloud infrastructure from a single console. There is less overhead on operations due to automation support, and cloud network segmentation has become more advanced.

Wireless connectivity transforms with robust management
There are areas for improvement, particularly at the lower end of the medium enterprise market. Cradlepoint's portfolio is lacking budget-friendly options. The company realizes that there's a need for affordable connectivity products, especially for lower-end medium enterprises or larger small enterprises, and is working on developing entry-level products in terms of functionality and pricing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its exceptional capability to seamlessly integrate with various cloud services makes it the preferred choice for multi-cloud deployments."
"The product has greatly improved our organization by saving costs for multiple direct connections and simpler cloud configurations."
"The connections are seamless, and we can access the static clouds on the platform itself. We are also able to trace the issues. The most valuable features of the solution are security, user interface, and performance."
"Within the Aviatrix ecosystem, you could connect different clouds, and the intricacies of low-level commands and configurations were abstracted away."
"The most valuable feature of Aviatrix is that it saves us a lot of time."
"This tool resolves the overlapping of CIDR’s IP addresses in a multi-cloud environment, which is its best feature. The product also gives packet-level details on the data that has been put from one cloud to another. Currently, no other solution in the market can give this kind of detail. There is also the high VPN connectivity which gives high throughput. Internet service providers have a limitation on large migrations like 10 Gigabytes or 2 to 2.3 GBPS. However, this tool gives you a functionality where you can bundle multiple tunnels into one tunnel. Thereafter, you can transfer the data from one environment to another or from on-prem to the cloud."
"Aviatrix has positively impacted my organization by making management and administration easier, allowing us to manage all the cloud infrastructure from a single console."
"It has enhanced the way I can deploy and manage VPCs and other connectivity services, provided valuable insights into latency, ports used, and top talkers, and offered effective troubleshooting tools."
"We are administrative partners with Cradlepoint; there are a few things that could change, but they support the business very well."
"Cradlepoint NetCloud is very stable; it's so good that we are starting to roll it out and now support some of our remote offices with them now."
"It is easy to set up and requires a single administrator to maintain it."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the automatic failover."
"Cradlepoint provides real value in its focus on wireless WAN connectivity."
"I rate the overall solution as ten out of ten."
"Cradlepoint NetCloud is very stable."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement regarding enhancing its security features in response to modern cybersecurity challenges."
"One area that could use improvement is IPv6 support."
"There could be an easy availability of multiple features in the profile."
"I find that the pricing, setup costs, and licensing for Aviatrix are on the higher side."
"The tool has a very limited local presence in the GCC market. I am based in Dubai, UAE and it would be very difficult for me to reach out to US staff for technical discussion during the tool’s implementation. The tool needs to focus on the GCC market which includes UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, etc. There is nobody to help you out in this region."
"Aviatrix should include more integrated security features like intrusion detection and lateral movement detection."
"The solution needs to improve the onboarding architecture."
"There can be a steep learning curve for users who are not familiar with it or multi-cloud networking concepts"
"In our situation, the initial setup was complex."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"During the initial phase, it operates as an open-source and it's a free tool."
"It operates on a consumption-based model and the expenses depend on factors such as the number of virtual machines you use and the resources consumed."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"Cradlepoint's prices are on par with similar solutions."
"The annual cost is less than $200,000 yet more than $150,000.00."
"Yearly licenses are available."
