I'm sticking this in Wired but it covers Wireless, Wired and Telephones...

So, I've now taken over IT in a large primary school (850 kids, 120 staff).

 

We currently have an elderly 40ap Ruckus system with a mix of AP models, A Splicecom phone system with around 30 extensions, and around 20 switches from an assortment of vendors including HP(procurve), Netgear, HP Aruba and TPLink. It's a completely flat network  despite having almost 600 devices hung off it. 

 

I have been buying Yealink phones for the last year to replace the failing and out of support IPCS phones, and the wholesaler I've been using (UX Pro) has suggested I investigate Grandstream with a view to unifying all 3 systems. I have to say that I'm very impressed, it seems incredibly feature rich and the price point is almost unbelieveable - I can do a full hardware refresh of wired, wireless and telephones for the price of wifi and wired from Unifi or just wired from any other vendor.

 

Anyone here used any of the Grandstream networking? They seem to be very big in asia and in the hospitality industry. The only things I'm really worried about is longevity and ability to access support.
