Hi Jamie, We are currently evaluating it, it has the potential but also comes with a cost. We would have to start with ACT.

The plug-and-play auto-optimizations marketed by your favorite Access Point (AP) manufacturers aren’t all the same. The complexities of an increased shift in demand overnight due to a software update, latency-sensitive services like voice over Wi-Fi, and real-time location services turn a simple plug-and-play solution into a custom deployment that needs proper planning and regular maintenance. Bad Wi-Fi can be a result of insufficient coverage, but it can also be caused by a range of improper settings and external interferers that APs alone may not be able to detect. Coverage and Capacity – If your network doesn’t meet the minimum requirements for coverage and capacity, the devices on your network will not be able to perform the necessary applications. Channel Overlap – Channel overlap can wreak havoc on your network. Interferences from neighboring APs and networks will cause bad Wi-Fi. Interference – Both Wi-Fi and non Wi-Fi signals can cause interferences on your network. Wireless cameras, microphones, or even microwaves can cause a disruption on your network. https://www.ekahau.com/blog/request-for-sidekick/?utm_campaign=2020.07.GL.EM.Sidekick%20Campaign&utm_source=email&utm_term=Sidekick%20blog%20%26%20approval%20letter&utm_content=2020.07.GL.EM%20Sidekick%20Campaign ********** Replies to EDUCAUSE Community Group emails are sent to the entire community list.
