The Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent thing hurt them the most.
We were looking to do our first licensed path years ago and considered
DW, but we bought more radio at 1/2 the price with Trango.

that reaction is pretty interesting.

What Mikrotik did right is that if you know the GUI then you
probably know the CLI.

I love a CLI, _as a backup_ for those times that I only have
text access. But give me a GUI. My favorite is still the
Mikrotik custom gui but there has to be a web one as well.

Ha, yea. I wrestled a Grizzly Bear once, 15-20
seconds late it was
all over so this doesn’t scare me J. With the amount
of equipment we
have to work with, it’s impossible to be a command
line expert in
everything. GUI’s are far more universal. Had to put
up a Sub-10
80GHz radio yesterday. 5 minutes through the GUI,
caught up.
Dragonwave, 2 support calls, and 2 guys for 4 hours to
get our first
link up. Guess which one will never get a P.O. from
our company in
the future.

We just put some up and weren’t impressed. When you
call tech support
and they make you feel like a second class tech
because you don’t use
command line entries instead of the GUI, that’s pretty
much the end of
our relationship with that company going forward.
GUI’s are important
to reducing training and being able to have more techs
handle basic
support which in turn reduces costs and improves
support times. How
that message hasn’t gotten through to some companies
is beyond me.

Dragonwave was always higher priced but I could never
figure out the
advantages.

Wow. I wonder how that happened?
Used to be one of the forefront in that market.
Just couldn’t keep pace with the industry?
I bet that happens to Ceragon in the next year or two.
