What it is

Cradlepoint NetCloud Manager is a cloud platform for configuring, deploying, monitoring, operating and troubleshooting LTE and 5G router and adapter endpoints used for wireless WAN. Dashboards and reports show live LAN and WAN statistics, cellular health and data-plan usage. Deployment tools include preconfigured setup, bulk policy management, automatic carrier selection and cellular geolocation mapping. The service monitors connection health, provides network-health dashboards and deeper insights, and sends immediate alerts when issues arise. Security controls include optional multifactor authentication, Federated ID single sign-on, enhanced login security, granular permissions and security alerts. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Cradlepoint says its cloud services run on Amazon Web Services across multiple availability zones with offsite backups; device connections are client initiated, certificate based and encrypted with current TLS. The REST API offers programmatic access to many interface functions through v2 and v3 endpoints. A mobile app lets authorized users inspect alerts, endpoint status, signal and usage data, run tests and reboot endpoints. Essentials and Advanced plans include enterprise-level support, updates and global 24x7 assistance.
