Good basics but lacking features

Needs more wlan management features, but good at what it does. Clean and easy to use.

For example, no way to enable or disable a wlan.

Works good but could use more info

I like how the information is laid out. But definitely would like to see more instead of logging into the web based controller each time. Also would like to choose custom icons to better organize the device list.

Cloud service

In this new version the ability to choose between local and cloud access seems to have been removed. I now have to wait for the app to decide that it can’t connect locally and fail, before allowing cloud access. This makes connecting via the cloud slow and laborious.

Great app, but…

It’s missing a ton of advanced config features. I have to go on the clunky and difficult to use admin portal. Please add features like batch config for devices, advanced settings (site and device settings).

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback! We will continue to add more config features in future versions. Please share more details about your experience and features with us at omada_feedback@tp-link.com so that we can review and better improve our products.

Decent, but buggy

Interface is easy to use and manage my devices, but the app drops connection to my local controller a lot and always needs to reconnect. Can be frustrating to use and I need to switch over to the full web interface for most features.

Good!

Simple and easy to use, can meet all the network management functions I want.

No way to clear all logs

One thing that’s really annoying is the lack of ability to clear all logs without manually selecting each one. I get thousands of log entries and if I want to clear them, I’d literally have to checkmark each one of them. Please add a ‘Clear all’ function.

Love Omada!

The Omada network solution is simple yet powerful, and the app provides a useful window into your network.

Could include some additional features, but as it is it’s really very good.

Update has knocked clouds support out

I’m writing this because since Omada updated for phone it keeps locking out cloud services and access. Phone version is broken after days of same having to reset everything as it works for a few day then locking out says ip isn’t what was set since update has known bugs it has broken more than they fixed. Laptop is needed to set and lock ip I set. But everything keeps get knocked out since update. Before update was working find did not even have to go in and set up things. Now it’s nearly every day now it locks me out of my own controller. What happened TP-LINK please fix faster then you normally fix bugs that crashes the whole system was great once now swam gone backwards and I have business grade hardware. As to-link 50 5g WiFi 6 has a paid wall that you have no control over. Basic levels lower with less settings but you can pay more more settings for security and privacy. So much for to link worse thank you Netgear

Features NOT available

Hey 👋 I am using apple and hardware controller.

I do not see most of the features highlighted here. Like, no statistics page, no access to manage VPN from mobile etc.

What is wrong?

Response from developer

Hello, the VPN feature is only supported by omada controller 5.14.20 and above. Please upgrade the version of your hardware controller, and then you can find this feature on the Settings page of Omada APP.
