Cambium's Cloud Services Likely to Vanish
TL;DR
Cambium Networks has entered administration, leading to the potential collapse of its cloud services. 260 staff, 53.6% of the workforce, were laid off without severance. Customers must transition to on-prem cnMaestro ASAP.
Cambium Networks has entered administration, signaling the likely end of its cloud services. This impacts 260 employees, 53.6% of the workforce, who were laid off without severance. The company's financial reports for 2022 and 2023 were unreliable due to errors. Cambium's Wi-Fi access points, NSE firewalls, and cnMatrix switches are no longer in production. However, the fixed wireless broadband business will resume after a brief pause. Customers must install the on-prem version of cnMaestro under a 90-day trial license, after which the software will lose functionality. This leaves many wondering if they should ever again tie themselves to a cloud service when an on-prem alternative is available.
