Omada app is used for configuring and managing your Omada devices. You can change settings, monitor the network status and manage clients, all from the convenience of a smart phone or tablet. STANDALONE MODE Standalone mode is designed for managing EAPs or wireless routers right away without having to spend time configuring a controller. Each device is managed separately. This mode is recommended for networks which only have a few EAPs (or wireless routers) and require only basic functions, such as home network. CONTROLLER MODE Controller mode works together with a software Omada Controller or a hardware Cloud Controller, and is suitable for managing multiple devices (including gateways, switches and EAPs) centrally. Controller mode allows you to configure and automatically synchronize unified settings to the devices in the network. Compared to Standalone Mode, more configuration options are available and supports to manage more devices in Controller mode. You can manage devices in Controller mode in two ways: via Local Access or Cloud Access. In Local Access mode, the Omada app can manage devices when the Controller and your mobile device are in the same subnet; in Cloud Access mode, the Omada app can access the Controller across the internet so you can manage your devices wherever you are. Compatibility List: The controller mode currently supports hardware cloud controllers (OC200 V1, OC300 V1), software Omada Controller v3.0.2 and above. (To experience more features support and more stable services, we recommend that you upgrade your controller to a new version). Standalone Mode currently supports the following models (with latest firmware): EAP245 (EU)/(US) V1 EAP225 (EU)/(US) V3/V2/V1 EAP115 (EU)/(US) V4/V2/V1 EAP110 (EU)/(US) V4/V2/V1 EAP225-Outdoor (EU)/(US) V1 EAP110-Outdoor (EU)/(US) V3/V1 EAP115-Wall (EU) V1 EAP225-Wall (EU) V2 ER706W (EU)/(US) V1/V1.6 ER706W-4G (EU)/(US) V1/V1.6 *The latest firmware is required and can be downloaded from https://www.tp-link.com/omada_compatibility_list.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TP at 4.6 against Glamox Wireless ZigBee's 1.0. TP also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (644 vs 1). Glamox Wireless ZigBee's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 59%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TP holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TP has 644 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of TP's written reviews are positive against 100% of Glamox Wireless ZigBee's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TP ships an update every 10 days, Glamox Wireless ZigBee every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
