## Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions Reviews
  ### 1. Cradlepoint is doing everything they can to listen, adapt, and improve

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Eric P. | Network Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

As a product, Cradlepoint is a robust, well-designed, and well-supported series of devices and services. They make excellent products with varying purposes. They are easy to communicate with, and have a great field and in-house support system. Cradlepoint has a lot of good options, and their product can be used in a wide variety of industries. They really make it hard to want to use any other product.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Sometimes, their strengths are also their weaknesses - in trying to make a product that reaches a wide range of markets and uses, they can also be a little inflexible with their products. Coming from the perspective of a non-traditional Cradlepoint ecosystem user, they would do well to have a wider range of product and service offerings, perhaps even more modular in nature, for some of its more unique customers. Despite this, I have been included in discussions around future products and software that give me hope that flexibility is coming.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are entirely cellular-based. They serve as both our router and our connectivity gateway, and are one of the main components of our entire fleet. This didn't seem to be the intitial use case for Cradlepoint, but I can see that they are becoming more mindful of companies and use cases like ours.

  ### 2. The EOL strategy is not ideal for IOT over years,  but the product is easy to manage and use.

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 24, 2024

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

How easy it can be to make changes and push mass updates.  The new cloud interface is full of options.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

There is not buildin backup tool,  they do have autosave  keep running last good config.  But this is not a backup.  You can manually save a copy(download)  on the management cloud or on the local login in. 

If you make a change and then want to look back to compare to a older config you have to have made a manual copy already.    My solution was to use a script with an api.  Why did I have work on the side of this software to add this?

The other issue is the EOL of the product,  I have modems which are aging,  for LTE bands and unit failures,   but are still very useful and working okay.  But with the EOL of the product will force me to replace 40 units a few years before I need to, as I lose cloud mangment access altogether as well as security updates.  Other vendors may drop a product to best effort with limited support.  This brings up the cost for support is high after initial support time, Skin there are other products on the market that have longer life spans,  they may not be as easy as Creadlepoint, but have Central management and longer horizons of usefulness.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I do not have problems,  I have Business needs and Cradlepoint helps address them; the need for edge connectivity as long as the WAN is on the public internet.  I have sites on private connectivity for WAN and support basically advised not to do that.

  ### 3. Good router but they EOL their products frequently

IoT Connectivity

  ### 7. Cradlepoint is just as good as any other brand

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I think it seems to be pretty stable from what I can tell. I don't have many issues reported with these as I see with brands such as TP-Link or NetGear.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Seems very basic. Could be more user friendly and tech friendly by having the lights be more visible. Nothing really makes it stand out.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Does not apply to me. I help others use it.

  ### 8. Excellent 5G cellular router options

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Their Netcloud portal is very easy to navigate and make setting changes.  A semi-novice user would not have any issues with getting their equipment properly setup in this interface.  
There are a number of features in the portal that can help you to fine tune your settings to make the device and service as robust and secure as you need it to be.
CradlePoint's tech support is very easy to work with, helpful and extremely knowledgable about their products.
Integration into my network as a secondary wifi service backup was not very difficult.
The router has been frequently used many times at various construction sites within the organization.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

All of my interactions with CradlePoint support have been positive and the equipment has been very reliable.  Nothing negative to say here.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Their E300 5G cellular router helped to bring wifi to construction sites where there was no service.  Now the PM's and other employees are able to use their tablets and make updates to job progress very easily.

  ### 9. Great product by Cradlepoint!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tim L. | Senior Network Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I like the use of the Netcloud to manage multiple Cradlepoints. The Cradlepoints themselves are pretty easy to setup and connect to an Out Of Band switch.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

The only hing I don't like about the Cradlepoint is that they don't have a built in SIM tray or an adapter to place the SIM card to be placed in the SIM slot.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The Cradlepoint help us solve an issue with Out Of Band access to our remote site locations. We would have to get remote hands to help manage devices at remote offices.

  ### 10. A game Changer for Telemetry

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

They are well constructed and not too hard to get set up. They allow most of the common routing possibilities one would expect. and they just work. Competition in teh telemerty sector I work in are all functional but lock me into thier ecostructure. CP is more configurable in what can be done with them.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I miss the NCP overlay, I know there is a new replacement that does the same thing but I dont know much about because it is too expensive. I had to change to VPN tunnels which work fine but require more IT involvement than NCP did. Every time I move one I have to get IT involved in the Firewall and the IPSEC config and that takes days to schedule.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Remote programming Access and as backup for Radio Telemetry

  ### 11. An easy and expandable cellular network solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Phill M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

NCM, and all the features it provides. Ease of implementaton, ease of use, and ease of integration into any environment.

The ability to enhance a solution via an SDK or container puts it far above its compeditors

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

The current licensing, and lack of proper visability in NCM around licensing, expiration of, and renewal. 
No way to see Advanced licenses avilable in NCM (that I know of)

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Connectivity in places that fixed internet cannot reach
Failover and redundancy connectivtiy
Primary connecitivty 
Vehcile solutions like tracking and providing in-vechile wi-fi

**Official Response from Russell Phillips:**

> Hey Phill, thank you so much for the positive review. Just to help out, NetCloud administrators have access to a Subscriptions Dashboard within the Account section of the application.   This dashboard includes information about licensing terms, budgetary renewal costs, and available licenses to be applied (for Advanced or other add-ons).   You can find out more in the included article.   We appreciate any and all product feedback and ask that you submit more details via the Feedback section of the Resource Center (gold book icon in lower left hand corner) of NetCloud Manager.

Cradlepoints are easy to setup. The NetCloud Manager is a good portal with all the customizations , integrations and settings that can be performed. With the help of an SDK I am able to perform speed tests and also do other enhancements. The customer support provided by Cradlepoint is really good.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Can't see advanced licensing details in NCM - like the expiry , renewal details .

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Failover and redundancy connectivtiy

Primary connecitivty

  ### 13. Keeping your business applications connected during traditional ISP outages or maintenance.

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2023

We utilize the Cradlepint devices with our SD-WAN solution to keep our plants connected during ISP maintenance or outages. The NetCloud managment keeps all our devices in one pain of glass.

We would like to see some additional capabilities in the alerting side of power outage on the network equipment.

  ### 14. UNWIRED 23 was Awesome and Informative

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andy W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Cradlepoint events are always very informative and their devices never fail.

I do not have a dislike the support and devcies are top notch!!

The ability to be mobile and have an interent connection any where make both my work life and home life much more enjoyable.

  ### 15. Been a user for years, FirstNet applications are top notch

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel R. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

My company has been with Cradlepoint for years, as an essential provider of fuel for all emergency vehicles in the USA, their Firtstnet implementation has helped us use FirstNet as a redundant path for connectivity.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

As the company gets bigger, there have definitely been growing pains when it comes to service. As an early provider, we expected better pricing on licensing. As an experienced user. I used to be able to just tell them when a device failed and they would send one right out. Now I have to prove that the device is broken before getting an RMA, I don't have time for that.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Firstnet implementation has saved us a ton of cost creating a redundant internet path for all our sites. when the groups work, they work well and makes it easy to manage in ECM, The alert triggering system has saved us a lot of downtime, showing problems so we can get out in front of them.

  ### 16. Cradlepoint IBR900 User

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Being able to manage multiple devices from one dashboard.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

No real complaints, Works great for my needs.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use this for Mobile data in Police cars.

  ### 17. Cradlepoint is an incredibly flexible Internet solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Derek L. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

The ease of configuration is excellent, but the management ability provided by Cradlepoint's NetCloud is a deal sealer. By far, Cradlepoint is the best solution for mobile vehicles and vessels.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

The only negative attribute I have experienced thus far with the Cradlepoint products is replacement part access. For example, every three years, I upgrade the Cradlepoint units inside our marine domes to utilize the newer Cradlepoint modems; occasionally, I will need replacement screws to remount the units into our domes. Not wanting to find these screws from a 3rd party locally, I wrote submitted a ticket to Cradlepoint's customer service (CCS) and received an interesting response. CCS did overnight the replacement parts I needed but then stated that if I wanted any further replacements, I would have to go through the 3rd party vendor from which we bought the original Cradlepoints. Although I understand the logic, the extra time we would have had to wait to receive these parts would have been a major issue with our companies operations. With that said, we are extremely happy with Cradlepoint and look forward to a long business relationship.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

These units provide internet to our marine vessels. It allows us to collect, process, and communicate in real-time data back to stakeholders worldwide. Other solutions do not provide speed (data), distance (connectivity) or durability (longevity) comparatively to Cradlepoint's products.

  ### 18. Overall CradlePoint Experience

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Craig R. | Business Systems Analyst - Principal, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Top-notch experiences in working with CradlePoint:
 - NetCloud Manager allows simplicity of management over 400 devices including different models of equipment
 - Tech Support is responsive
 - Sales team continues to assist long after the sale
 - Training includes KB's and handholding when requested :-)
 - Devices have been set and forget

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I haven't found much to dislike.  I may have an initial knee-jerk reaction to not finding something, but it was usually my fault. :-(

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Patrol car routers also provide wifi for body-worn cameras (BWC's) to auto-upload video into the evidence locker, making this really easy for the deputies
- Jail copper networking is limited, so a few routers of a more appropriate model were deployed in key parts of the jail to provide connectivity and also BWC auto-uploads where Meraki AP's could not be placed
- Disaster recovery temporary deployments of routers where Internet was interrupted for days at locations which had to be connected 24/7
- We struggled with managing port forwarding at the Group level, but tech support assisted us with that to simplify deployment of surveillance devices

  ### 19. Great Utility and Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gregory P. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I like that there has not been anything I have wanted to do that I have not been able to do with our Cradlepoint's.  They are easily managed through NetCloud, are extremely utilitarian and reliable and just plain work when I need them to.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I don't have any negative items to bring up in this review.  To date, my experience has been great.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ease of management with multiple devices through NetCloud is great.  I use a private APN through our provider and it works great in connecting to their cellular network and allowing us to separate and manage different streams of information through the modems is easy and user friendly.

  ### 20. Dependable connectivity via LTE

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** eri c. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Reliable and predictable connectivity, has all the features I have needed, and they simply work. ECM is solid and reliable, intuitive navigation and full of insights on how the devices are performing.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

As an experienced user of multivendor gear, it is a nice surprise to find that Cradlepoint has no negative  features, behaviors, or any other unwanted characteristics that would be a turn-off for me.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Business continuity when the wireline, be it broadband, ethernet, etc, go all out at the same time.
Also, providing additional bandwidth relief to a job location without waiting on the local provider to extend the infrastructure, fiber, cables, etc.

  ### 21. Cradlepoint let me evolve

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oriol M. | Chief Executive Officer - Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 09, 2023

Plarform easy to use, trining platform and the ability to deploy sdk apps using python or launch containers on them lets you create whatever you want and provide new solutions.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Some lower end devices or iot ones doesn't have a very powerful CPU and a very short RAM capacity making it only able to run light apps and sometimes you can lead to memory issues

Cradlepoint is making our infrastructure to grow providing our clients top line devices that will be able to set vpns different lans, seggregate ports and manage different VLANS and Local Network

  ### 22. Works great with an abundance of features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** marc H. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

Their customer service and technical support team are second to none.  They are available for your specific needs and issues and actually put together a team of engineers to diagnose and resolve a problem we were having that ended up being an issue with sim cards....their equipment worked perfectly and still does.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I wish cradlepoint had notified their end users that in order to keep the first year functionality of a cradlepoint and in order to have the ability to change configuration when needed, you had to be current on your subscription.  We didn't budget for it initially because the reseller never passed that info along to us.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cradlepoint allows for seamless viewing of live cameras from a mobile environment.  An absolute necessity in our business and a great product to deploy in a mobile setting.

  ### 23. Amazing customer service, devices are well designed and well made.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Isaac R. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I like the fast and easy setup process and the grouping and configuration changeability from Netcloud. Easy tracking of bandwidth. Cellular health readings are easy to read and understand.

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

I dislike that there is not device identity process for the devices. I have a lab of multiple devices and would love to see a "blink light" ability to show what device is what by a simple command from NetCloud.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The devices connecting through cellular have allowed the company to expand internet connectivity at an inexpensive cost. The firewall setup is a robust solution with easy setup.

  ### 24. very reliable product, very versitile

very flexible software, it can do things beyond what we need.
the cradlepoint manager has gotten very slick and useful in the last few years

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

sometimes the help files are outdated and refer to older software, with old screenshots.  
updating help files with new screenshots would help

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

we are and electric utitility with many remote locations that don't have fiber or microwave connections.  CP fills a void and allows flexibility in placement of control devices.

  ### 25. Reliable hardware and excelent website

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chuck V. | Director Information Technology, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

They rarely fail.  The cloudpint portal makes it easy to manage my protfolio of devices

**What do you dislike about Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions?**

The portal does not tie the device to the interfaces.  When doing exports I need to do two then merge them.  Also the licensing process is challenging.  Renewals occur at different times, etc

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

we deploy these devices into customer environments.  Having the CP allows us to avoid trying to get the customer to make firewall changes on their in-house systems

I haven't really found anything I would say is a dislike.

**What problems is Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023
