Any organization with a robust IT support network and with 100+ users, all the way up to international conglomerates with millions of workers. The only situation I can see where it might be harder is if you have a very small business with limited technical know-how. Otherwise, it's honestly the no-brainer choice.

I can say that as an infrastructure analyst I can have absolute control over the wireless network with the Aerohive Wireless WLAN architecture. We manage the network via the Web from anywhere and we have, from a graphical interface, a view and status of all installed access points. We receive notifications when an issue arises and we've already been able to resolve the case. The prices are very good and it has a very modern and compact appearance and design. We recommend technical support also to avoid future hardware issues.

Alternatives Considered
After a lengthy vendor selection process we determined that CloudBridge was the best solution—although as always with demos it was difficult to tell if we'd really made the right decision. Since selecting CloudBridge—hough I have had lots of input from colleagues who use other systems—I feel very happy with our choice. The feature set alone is just far superior.

Since 2003/04, I've evaluated, used, configured, and set up dozens of Wifi networks and none has had the capabilities and complex abilities that Aerohive offers as a solution. During the evaluation period, it was a clear standout from an office and business environment due to the advanced configuration options and security settings that were required.

  • Positively, has saved us money not needing to upgrade access points every 2-3 years
  • Upgrading to Wifi 6/6e is on the horizon for us, so staying on top of technology/security is important.
