## Rankings

## Review summary

The app is strong for alerts and mobile monitoring across sites, including per-client data usage, but users repeatedly cite missing SIM management, limited admin controls, and intermittent connectivity issues across firmware/version updates.

### Pros

- Push alerts/notifications are reliable and useful for monitoring devices
- Allows quick mobile monitoring of multiple Peplink devices/sites
- Shows data usage per client and provides a quick network health view
- Provides basic device information for quick checks

### Cons

- In-app SIM card switching is missing; users cannot switch SIMs from the app
- Lacks core admin features (no easy access to Status, limited settings/WAN configuration)
- Connectivity and login issues across firmware/models (unreachable devices, HTTP/HTTPS problems, unrecognized devices)
- Client list and/or event log can be blank or not populated after updates
- WAN up/down notifications do not always work in the app
