"It would be beneficial to have support for the Chinese language."
"Regarding opportunities for improvement in Mist, it is notable for its robust cloud portal and integration of artificial intelligence into various services, creating a highly efficient environment for work. However, a drawback lies in the cost associated with its WiFi offerings. With a pricing range of twelve hundred to fifteen hundred dollars for a single Access Point, exclusive of the subscription, it is acknowledged as a relatively expensive solution in the realm of WiFi services. Despite this drawback, the positive attributes of Mist make it a noteworthy option."
"There is no local support for Mist in Brazil."
"Mist AI and Cloud need to improve the configuration speed."
"Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors."
"The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license."
"PRTG would be improved if it required less memory to run."
"They just released a newer version of the desktop app, a beta version, that I have been trialing out. I prefer the older version, only because of how the layout is designed"
"PRTG's documentation could be improved."
"I would like a more straightforward ability to create dashboards and maps. The network maps should be a bit more flexibility in the GUI to do what we need to do."
"The icons on PRTG's network diagram are hard to find. For example, finding the icons for firewalls and servers is difficult, so we're struggling to create the network topology."
"We've had some issues previously with the performance of the sensors. We tend to deploy quite a bit of WMI, which is quite processor-intensive, and we've found that that impacts the sensors quite a bit."
"The free version only gives us 100 free sensors to use. It would be nice if there was double that."
"They could improve the process of updating the license."
