Ceragon today is NOT the same Ceragon it was 3 years ago.
Unlike many here when it comes to choosing equipment I don't chase the
price point. I look at who supplies the outstanding support. I look
for the company that has my back when I am up against the wall with a
dead link.
And until someone can blow away their delivery schedule and their
technical/customer support, Dragonwave is my company of choice for
licensed microwave. Radio clips to the antenna, POE, simple interface,
easy equipment replacement.
And most importantly..... the sh*t works!
I can't remember EVER needing to do a firmware upgrade on a Dragonwave
radio to make it work right. I can't say that for many of the other
manufacturers and I have installed a lot of different equipment over the
years.

Nothing but problems. Zero support. The firmware is terrible as is
the interface.

The few times we’ve needed Trango support they have been extremely
responsive and helpful.
