“Great APs and system overall with only a few hiccups.”

Nov 2, 2020
Switched to Ruckus wireless and was overall very pleasantly surprised. Planning, setup, and implementation all were quick, fluid, and simple. Usability is good and exceeded expectations. Some of the commands\processes of doing thing seems to be a bit backwards compared to some other options, so far the ability to do it all is there but not always the easiest to figure out the way Ruckus wants you to do it.
