Top 5 reasons why Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi wins against the competition
Ruckus
In a previous blog, we listed the top 5 reasons to adopt Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi, along with our 5 favourite reports generated by Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi. In this post, we explore the top 5 reasons why Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi continues to outperform the competition.
Like their Wi-Fi 5 predecessors, Ruckus Wi-Fi 6 access points (APs) outperform the competition in capacity, coverage and performance.
APs bundled with certain competing cloud Wi-Fi solutions are typically self-building unless a subscription is renewed. In practice, this means that the AP cannot send SSIDs or switch packets. In contrast, while an administrator cannot log in to Ruckus Cloud for management, our APs continue to operate with the latest configuration and AP firmware image.
Why the Ruckus Cloud?
Our cloud solution allows users to do more with less, resulting in a significantly lower TCO. In fact, this solution provides fast and ubiquitous coverage - with fewer APs deployed. This means less cabling and switch ports, with customers typically seeing significant savings of around 33%-50%. Our TCO calculator can be used to compare WLAN deployment costs.
Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi updates are completely automatic. This means users don't have to spend time and effort manually updating AP firmware or closely monitoring analytics migration. In addition, new features are highlighted and immediately available for all updated APs.
Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi supports mesh resiliency, allowing (mesh) networks to survive cloud downtime and outages. In addition, the AP configuration remains intact during a cloud outage, while mesh functionality is maintained even after multiple user reboots.
Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi enables IT departments to provision, monitor, optimise and troubleshoot an enterprise Wi-Fi network with intuitive simplicity from a single web dashboard or mobile app. A cloud-based network from Ruckus is a win-win scenario for all stakeholders. IT gets ease of management. End users get a consistently great Wi-Fi experience that is fast, reliable and secure. Want to learn more? Get access to our interactive Ruckus Cloud Wi-Fi demo here.

Marcel Zimmer is the Technical Managing Director of EnBITCon. During his time in the German Armed Forces, the trained IT developer was able to gain numerous project experiences. His interest in IT security was significantly awakened by his service in command support. Even after his service, he is an active reservist in the Bundeswehr.
His first firewall was a Sophos UTM 120, which he had to set up for a customer project. Since then, his interest in IT security has grown steadily. In the course of time, various security and infrastructure topics have come into his focus. His most interesting projects included, for example, WLAN coverage in an explosion-proof area, as well as a multi-site WLAN solution for a large
