As technology evolves, so must the systems we rely on. For users of Extreme Networks’ WING, it’s important to note that support for WING controllers will cease by October 2026. Additionally, as of October 2024, WING products are no longer available for sale. With these changes in sight, customers need to be aware of the migration procedures and prepare for the future. This involves assessing risks, planning for migration costs, and understanding the benefits of transitioning to a more modern system.<\/p>\n

Why Migrate from WING ?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rapid growth in the number of users, tools, and applications has led to an increased demand for reliable Wi-Fi networks. Legacy systems like WING may struggle to keep up with this demand, leading to longer response times for support tickets, misconfiguration issues, and a less predictable user experience. Security risks and quality concerns could also arise due to outdated infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The good news is that Extreme offers a range of wireless access points (APs) that support Extreme Cloud IQ (XIQ) and provide a modern, scalable alternative. These APs include the Extreme Wireless (ExtremeMobility) and Universal APs, designed for global deployment.<\/p>\n

Simplifying the Migration Process<\/strong><\/p>\n

Extreme Networks has made the migration from WING to Extreme Cloud IQ as seamless as possible. They provide easy-to-follow migration plans, offer financing solutions, and even provide vouchers on select APs, making it more affordable to upgrade to a cloud-based wireless solution.<\/p>\n

So, why should you make the switch? The answer lies in the comprehensive features and flexibility of Extreme Cloud IQ. With universal platforms and licensing options, the move to cloud-based networking is more than just an upgrade; it’s an opportunity to future-proof your network.<\/p>\n

The Power of Wi-Fi 6 and 7<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 are key technologies that can significantly increase network capacity while enabling IoT (Internet of Things) integration. By adopting these new standards, businesses can automate processes, gain actionable insights, and reduce resolution times for network issues\u2014all while providing a better overall user experience.<\/p>\n

Why Extreme Cloud IQ is the Best Alternative<\/strong><\/p>\n
