Fast secure roaming is what you're missing, but that's about it.

Okay, so I've been trying to figure this out and figured I may as well
ask. Where is the cost benefit of the using the controllers and
LWAPPs.
The controllers aren't cheap and the APs don't get cheaper even though
they are "light" ?   I assume there are some management benefits in
this
kind of solution, but have you found them to be worth the money ?  Are
there other benefits that aren't as obvious to me that are ?

I like the idea of making management easier and just like any
technologist like shiny new toys, but in the context of overall
funding
priorities with aging network equipment in places and other challenges
find it hard to justify since our APs mostly just work and require
little touching beyond initial config and occasional firmware
upgrades.
What about this am I missing ?
