I have used ruckus for our BWA(broadband wireless access) project rollout in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, for our company Tikona digital network Approx 10 years back in the year 2000 when only a few broadband services will provide service through wireless.

Our goal is to establish a wireless access network in the city and in all over India to provide broadband internet services

Ruckus, with its proprietary antenna array technology helps design a seamless wireless network that offers strong signal strength, better coverage, fantastic polarization.

Best part is, with one license, all features get unlocked, none of the features require a seperate independent licensing.

This can only come from an organization, that has dedicated itself solely to provide a better wireless for IOT, and truly ruckus deserves more than its place today in the industry.

**Describe the project or task Commscope Ruckus helped with:**

We use Ruckus for deployment our guest facing internet access points and controller to supervisor and manage the environment. Both wired and wireless. Also used for our conference services deployment for various corporate groups. 

**What do you like best about Commscope Ruckus?**

The GUI web interface is easy to navigate make changes in, and supervisor the system. The access points are made well and are fairly durable. I have never had one fail or brick and even be defective, really. And the one or two that I have had be defective have been replaced. Also the variety and selection are good. The form factors of their access points are tailored to fit any need of ours.

**What do you dislike about Commscope Ruckus?**

I dislike how upgrading firmware can render older access points unusable. Feels like I'm buying new access points too often to stay current with controller firmware. There is also unclear or not easily found documentation regarding which firmwares brick which access points. You need to have a support account to see the PDF docs and its a real slog to try and comb through various docs to find your particular upgrade path and in that path which APs will no longer work. 

**Recommendations to others considering Commscope Ruckus:**

Good UI, support, and updates. Easy to deploy and manage. Pretty good value for your money. 

**What problems is Commscope Ruckus solving and how is that benefiting you?**
