SmartCell Insight (SCI) vs Flexmaster

[alvinp]

Hi, 

May I knows about the difference between SmartCell Insight (SCI) vs Flexmaster?
Which product is suitable to me. I only have 61 AP of ZF7343 and 3 ZD. 

My objective is want to get information like client throughput, client uptime, peak time connection, client connect, etc 

Any experts could give me comprehension regarding those two products. 


Thanks,

[koen_verbeeck]

The price, that's for sure.
