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 provides high-speed network connections."
"From an implementation perspective, it's easy. I rate it a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup, and ten is an easy setup."
"The most valuable features of Huawei Wireless are WiFi coverage and ease of use."
"Overall, we've been quite pleased with the solution and its capabilities as well as its pricing."
"The solution's roaming feature is very nice. When you move to another place it automatically changes the access point. It's one of the most valuable features."
"The product is simple and easy to use."
"The solution has high performance and we are using Wi-Fi 6 that we have found to be the best coverage."
"What I like most about Huawei Wireless is that it's customizable. It has many unique features, such as encryption, spatial streams, hiding features for different scenarios, low-density and high-density areas, and smart antennas."
"It has all the common solutions that all other solutions provide, but it is very effective, and its cost is 60% less than Ruckus."
"This product is easy to use."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The initial setup is not complicated."
"The solution has been dependable and has kept up with modern technology."
"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."
"We use Omada Access Points for the network and Wi-Fi."
"Omada is a good solution that I would recommend, and it is less expensive while providing good results."
 

Cons

"Support could be a bit faster."
"The manageability could be improved."
"Improving the visibility, control offered, and cloud management would all be very helpful."
"We are experiencing some challenges in terms of technical support; it's not readily available."
"The technical support needs to be improved. They also need to produce some more technical guides."
"The solution needs to include a captive portal."
"Huawei Wireless can improve the signal, sometimes it becomes weak."
"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."
"Upgrading the hardware capabilities to newer versions like Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 would be a helpful improvement."
"Omada needs improvement in the distance it can cover."
"TP-Link Auranet EAP is not very efficient, they need to improve it."
"Aruba has better scaling capabilities."
"We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem."
"We have not been satisfied with the performance of TP-Link Auranet EAP."
"There is room for wider improvements and additional features to enhance managing capabilities."
"There should be more remote support for the mobile application."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Huawei Wireless is reasonable. The licenses are active, and everything is working fine as per the license agreement."
"It is not monthly. It is a kind of perpetual licensing. We pay once depending on the kind of services we need to deliver. There are no licensing fees."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive solution."
"It is very cost-effective."
"I would rate them something, like, eight to nine, on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Right now, my company made a one-time purchase of Huawei Wireless. It depends, but in most of the projects where customers buy hardware with some software, it's a one-time purchase. Customers pay a yearly fee for other projects for support and additional software features, such as email protection firmware updates for cybersecurity. You'll also receive information about the latest attacks and get more protection if you pay an additional fee apart from the standard license fee. You'll also get an additional warranty for Huawei Wireless, a yearly contract."
"We don't have any control on the pricing. This comes from Huawei in India. Pricing-wise, Huawei is very aggressive and competitive if you compare them to competitors, like Cisco, Aruba, and Ruckus. The Indian Huawei team tells us, "Just pick up the order and design the infrastructure. If there are any pricing challenge, we'll work on that and we will try to match things 100 percent.""
"I pay monthly for the solution."
"TP-Link is a good price. They have a good price. But technology-wise, it has to be better."
"TP-Link provides solutions that are more cost-effective than other well-known brands."
"The cost is about 500 Brazilian real per access point, with no additional recurring costs."
"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."
"The price is affordable, and we haven't had any additional costs due to having a limited number of users."
"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."
"Its benefit is that it is cost effective."
"The price of the solution is not a lot for five people to use it."
