Cisco Spaces Review
Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Spaces
So the biggest issue that we ran into is most people in healthcare know about a DAS. So a DAS is very expensive and you also have to pay the carrier to take care of it and you don't get any of your data open. We looked at open roaming as a way of not using a local DAS, using our existing infrastructure with our wireless Cisco hardware to be able to cut that in about a third of the price and to also kind of speed up the deployment as well. So we have her working at four hospitals right now.
Pros
- So the first thing it does really well is a lot of our sites are rural, so we don't have very good cellular connectivity. So we invested in this product because we want our clients, our customers that are coming in to be able to walk in and be able to use a our wireless infrastructure just like it was a cellular device. So they don't even know, they walk in, they think, man, my cellular's better right now. I can do all the things that I wanna do. I can do video. And they don't even know. So that's the biggest bonus for us.
Cons
- There's actually only one. It is easy to use, easy to deploy, but in the back end, you guys have a partnership in general with AT&T and T-Mobile. I'm looking for you guys to have Verizon added to that. So I know you guys are working on that, but that's probably the biggest thing I have.
- So we haven't had necessarily an ROI from the product because we haven't used it to substantiate anything else except for DAS. So when I look at a distributed system like DAS from an accelerator client, it's easily one-quarter of the price.
