Just had an 1-1/2 hour demo by the local Ruckus rep here in Toronto. I have to say I'm quite impressed, if half of what he said is true it seems to be a great product. Apparently by his graphs they outperform anything else on the market, Aruba, Cisco, HP, BTW he really dismissed Meraki as a “consumer” product.
Any advantage other that communality in management in having HP wireless, since my switches are HP E8200 and E5100? Or if the $$ is ok just go with Ruckus? BTW, i figure we need about 20 AP's (office and production) for now any about another 6 for a new building in about 8 months.
