They have good specs, and the price is lower than competing solutions
Omada could add some API integrations that would help with our automated solution. We're trying to integrate, and we're having some issues because some of the calls are not there. The API still needs some development. They could also enhance the reporting capabilities. At the same time, Omada's reporting has improved considerably in the latest version. That was an issue for us, but now it seems okay. More carrier-grade integrations should be available on Omada access points in the future. They could also add a hot spot and maybe a mobile upload solution. I still have issues from time to time when switching access points. I'm still connected to the SSID, but my signal drops when I switch from 5 Ghz to 2.4 Ghz. I'm not switched to the other access point that is closer to me. I should have been switched automatically to the other access point. Occasionally, the handoff doesn't work. I have tried this with WiFi 6, and it worked fine, so I think they may have resolved this issue in the latest versions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to set up."
"Overall, I am satisfied with the solution."
"Huawei Wireless's most valuable feature is smart antenna, a combination of informative capabilities and advanced technology."
"The handover is seamless whenever the users connect to the access point."
"The product is simple and easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Huawei Wireless are WiFi coverage and ease of use."
"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."
"The solution is easily managed compared to other wireless solutions."
"We use Omada Access Points for the network and Wi-Fi."
"The most valuable feature is the cloud-based management option, as it is very convenient to manage and this product is easy to use."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its price."
"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."
"When this solution is set up, it is solid. It offers fast deployment."
"Omada is easy to manage, has cloud management features, and is easy to set up."
"The initial setup is not complicated."
"Its sturdiness and cost-effectiveness are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"Cloud integration needs to be improved."
"Huawei Wireless has a small technical problem. When you use a power injector, it needs to be specially configured for the switch to which it is connected."
"Technical support is not ideal. They sometimes cannot connect to the wireless access point or their connection drops."
"Technical support could be better."
"The manageability could be improved."
"Huawei Wireless is not scalable. We have had a problem with the solution because it cannot integrate with other servers as the other competitors can."
"It is quite difficult to get support from TP-Link. They should provide more support to their clients."
"We have not been satisfied with the performance of TP-Link Auranet EAP."
"It is less affordable for smaller businesses."
"It's better for smaller organizations. This would not work for enterprises. It is not very scalable."
"TP-Link Auranet EAP is not very efficient, they need to improve it."
"The quality of the hardware needs to be improved."
"The technical support could be improved."
"Omada's ordering platform could be improved, though. Some of their distributors are a pain to work with."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Huawei Wireless is an expensive solution."
"To compete effectively, Huawei might consider adjusting pricing to align more closely with other competitive brands, particularly those offering lower-cost solutions."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive product. I'm rating it as one out of ten, price-wise."
"Its price is very good. This wireless system totally costs about 30,000 euros, and some of the other solutions cost about 45,000 euros. It is a difference of 15,000 euros, which is quite a lot of money."
"The price is good for the solution and there is a license required."
"Huawei licenses can be for either a one-year up to a five-year period and also apply for the tiers."
"The product has a good price."
"I pay monthly for the solution."
"The price is affordable, and we haven't had any additional costs due to having a limited number of users."
"The price of the solution is not a lot for five people to use it."
"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 cost is about 500 Brazilian real per access point, with no additional recurring costs."
"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."
"TP-Link provides solutions that are more cost-effective than other well-known brands."
"TP-Link is a good price. They have a good price. But technology-wise, it has to be better."
