It is so unprofessional to have Engineers wandering round a site using their phones to configure. Looks like they are "playing" on their phones, or engrossed in Facebook. Come on Chaps, can't you do something so we can configure from a PC ?

The concept of Harmony was built around mobile app management. This is not a secret and is posted all over the forum and our website. I understand people are used to using a web browser but we are hoping to break that trend. If someone is using Facebook they should have a stern talking to!
I don't have an Apple or Android mobile device and I'm not going to get one anytime soon. Am I out of luck? When will there be Harmony for Windows Phone or a Windows Modern app?
If a web gui is out of the question, then please make at least a SSH console for the engineers.
Mobile devices are the feature, so I really don't mind configure the APs from my phone or tablet, but some type of controller would definetly make things easier.

Well considering we are a "controller-free" product, most likely not going to happen. We definitely have products to do that in our ZoneFlex line, but this is a different market. Web UI, cloud connectivity, sure. Just don't expect a WLAN controller anytime soon.
What about we need to update the access points but the app crashes ?
You can do it from SSH or just reboot the AP. This will force an update check. If you do just reboot the AP, I would encourage another reboot about 3-5 mins later to instantiate the new image.
So there is no way to administer these things remotely? If a user in another location calls the helpdesk and says their wireless isn't working I have no way to check the APs or restart them except drive 20 miles?

Sure you can. Access the web interface by creating a port forwarding rule on your router.

Can we expect an smb version like SM from Meraki?
I mean a cloud management console, were one can manage all AP's at different locations?
