Key Reasons to Choose Omada Networks
1. Centralized Management
Omada’s Software Defined Networking (SDN) platform allows you to manage routers, switches, and wireless access points from a single dashboard instead of configuring each device separately.
2. Cloud-Based Monitoring
You can remotely monitor and manage customer sites from anywhere using the Omada cloud platform and mobile app, making it ideal for MSPs and IT providers.
3. No Ongoing License Fees
Unlike some enterprise networking brands, Omada offers cloud management without recurring per-device licensing costs, reducing long-term ownership expenses.
4. Easy Multi-Site Deployment
Zero-touch provisioning allows devices to be shipped directly to a site and automatically configured when connected to the internet. This is particularly useful for chain stores, schools, and distributed businesses.
5. Complete Ecosystem
Omada offers:
- Security gateways/routers
- Managed PoE switches
- Indoor Wi-Fi access points
- Outdoor Wi-Fi access points
