Part of the reason for cloud management is because of the success that Ruckus and Meraki had with it, especially in the area of stock or sales price. That was the one intellectual property that Cisco really wanted. Personally, I really don't want it because I like the real-time response of the server on the network. Cloud systems will always have lag and even though the bandwidth requirement is pretty small, it's still there. There are pros and cons to both but having started with my own server local, it would still be my preference. I just don't think it's going to be an option in the future.

One thing is going to solve this problem, the one with UBNT not listing to their customers and providing a lot of shit we do not want or need from them. That is competition; plan and simple. I love the folks at UBNT for what they have done, disrupting the wireless infrastructure market. They kicked Motorola's ass and took market share at an alarming rate. Motorola was big and bloated with unnecessary overhead and products that were overpriced and underperformed. Here is what I do not like since their release of Airmax: * Took way too much time enabling DFS frequencies on original equipment * Bug ridden firmware releases * Lack of supply of their Products * Half baked attempts with Management Tools AC1, AC2 * Lack/Poor support of SNMP so we can do it better with other tools * Lower/DFS and UNII1 support for Nanobeam * Still no AIRMAX version 2.0 equipment or whatever they want to name it(I have not signed an NDA) * Lack of focus on WISP Core needs, gave us routers, when we all use Mikrotik, gave us cameras, when were not asking and now a billing platform when I already have one and love it! We can all add to this list... Now back to the competition deal, Cambium showed the redesigned Force 100, now called force 110 at WISPAPALOZZA 2014 and less than 45 days later I received it. Last year they announced the ePMP 1000 line right before WISPAPALOZZA and I ordered it while at the show and had it waiting for me at the office when I returned. I did some testing for about a week and switched 35 customers over and had not one complaint from them, only my tech's because the web interface was buggy. I just wonder if Cambium(no NDA's here either) just might beat UBNT with a faster/enhanced ePMP before UBNT gets their new stuff together. Now, here's to Cambium -- may you be extremely successful and on time with your road map. Now , here's to MIMOSA -- may you deliver on what you promised, both technically and on time(looking kind of bad so far on the time deal Jaime). Now, here's to UBNT -- may you find your way home back to your original market, the WISPS's before Wall Street crushes you for not making your numbers again! You had your chance to crush your heavyweight champion but you gave them time to come back and maybe, kick some UBNT .... Now, I am seriously rooting for them all, we need competition, it is healthy for our industry. Tom Fadgen coastinet.com On 12/1/2014 1:09 PM, Mike Hammett wrote: It's called airCRM. It does billing and control. It's only hosted in the cloud. How could UBNT go this long without a functional control platform only to fuck it up this badly? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com _______________________________________________ Ubnt_users mailing list Ubnt_users@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/ubnt_users _______________________________________________ Ubnt_users mailing list Ubnt_users@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/ubnt_users _______________________________________________ Ubnt_users mailing list Ubnt_users@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/ubnt_users
