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.

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 - [View Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/ericsson-enterprise-wireless-solutions/reviews/ericsson-enterprise-wireless-solutions-review-7779164?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-01+05%3A55%3A12+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=1f9304f0-f590-4f8e-b235-2f84233dda93&secure%5Btoken%5D=cbb58cc3121682b33f18aff56c467ca34a5dadc4fdc683e13947dbfc259abecc&format=llm_user) ## Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions Features **Network** - Overlay and Underlay - Connectivity - Availability **Network Management** - Network Segmentation - Network Mapping - Security Analytics - API/Integrations **Platform** - Dashboard - Connection Status - SIM Management - Account Alerts **Management** - Network Automation - Network Traffic Analyzer - User Provisioning - Network Analytics - Resource Maintenance **Components - Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)** - Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) - Wide Area Network (WAN) - Firewall as a Service **Cloud Visibility** - Data Discovery **Application** - Integration - Performance - Health - Self-Heal - Simplify - Expenses **Security** - Application Security - Workload Protection **Reporting** - Data Usage - Available Bandwidth - Cost Analytics **Monitoring** - Network Monitoring - Network Discovery - Network Asset Mapping **Artificial Intelligence - Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)** - Automation **Security** - Data Security **Identity Management** - Adaptive Access Control - Identity Scoring - User Monitoring **Support** - Real-time alerting - Hybrid Infrastructure Support - API Integration **Agentic AI - Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platforms** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Decision Making **Identity** - SSO - Governance - User Analytics **Generative AI** - AI Text Summarization - AI Text Generation **Agentic AI - Network Management Tools** - Autonomous Task Execution - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Natural Language Interaction - Proactive Assistance - Decision Making ## Top Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions Alternatives - [Check Point Next Generation Firewalls (NGFWs)](https://www.g2.com/products/check-point-next-generation-firewalls-ngfws/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (503 reviews) - [Okta](https://www.g2.com/products/okta/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (1,202 reviews) - [SolarWinds Observability](https://www.g2.com/products/solarwinds-worldwide-llc-solarwinds-observability/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (798 reviews)
