"The most porfull app for wifi survey and analisys"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

The planner function is the best way to predict and simulate the propagation and attenuation of wifi signal. After a site survey app automatically make location of access points detected and on which channels and power transmit. You can isolate a single signal and quickly detect coverage hole or channels interference and solve it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

The price is to much expensive because if need a special dedicated equipment "Sidekick" that can be connect to laptop or table. You can have only one license per pc device and also the maintenance renew cost is sustained. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ekahau Pro is by far the best!!"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

Both the ability to share and collaborate with colleagues, as well as the granularity of the materials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

Sometimes while mapping out floorplans, the software will randomly crash and anything not saved is lost. I've gotten in the habit of saving my work about every five minutes due to this. An auto save feature would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scam"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

When it worked the 1 time, it worked pretty well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

Crashed on brand new computer requiring reload. After reload was put under a generic email address by THEIR support. After which they took the opportunity to try and extort VAST amounts of money. Do NOT do business with this company, you'll regret it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software for Meraki predictive placements"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

It allows us to stay home, on site site surveys are not replaceable yet when you trully care about quality and exact placement, but if you can allow a 15-20% error rate and adding a few extra APs just in case predictive site surveys are good enough and with Ekahau you can do both, it has a huge number of AP models and brands on it and it can be hugely customizable(as long as you have a good PC, it's not easy on the RAM or CPU) I'll love to do onsite site surveys after this covid nightmare is over but for now it is a great tool for predictive site surveys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

The UI difference between MacOSX and Windows is annoying, I know it isn't the same OS and it has different shortcuts, but some times it feels too different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for wireless designs and surveys"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

It's pretty intuitive to use. When we onboard new team members our first step is to teach them how to do a site survey and a wireless design with Ekahau(site surveys will have to wait until the pandemic is over) and besides being a great tool overall it is an amazing tool for teaching and learning wireless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

It is really expensive and unnecessarily heavy, I have taught my nephew a little wireless design since he is almost ready for college and there is no option for a student version and I like that I can do design and surveys in the same program, it would be even better if a lighter version allowed you to survey in a less powerful PC, it's not even about the cost, fewer resources mean better battery life.

"It is the best tool for measuring Wifi on site and a great desing tool"
What do you like best about Ekahau AI Pro?

The best site surveys are done with Ekahau at the moment. It works really well if your computer can support it and the GPS support is an amazing feature when you are on a car, also when doing designs allows you a way to create really good designs in a moderate amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekahau AI Pro?

Ekahau marketing tries really hard to justify the sidekick as a necessary addon and although the sidekick is a good tool being the only adapter that works in MacOSX is really a bummer giving us the feeling that they can design a driver but choose not to because they want to drive sales of the sidekick up. Sometimes we don't really care that much about the price but using a sidekick on top of a car is just a bad idea so we end up using a Windows machine just to use the other adapters. We can have a network nic fall and even if it gets destroyed we can use another one on the other side if a sidekick falls it can hurt someone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
