Why not avoid controllers entirely? I recommend Aerohive. In their
solution, there is NO controller, rather the APs communicate with each
other. (Imagine what OSPF would be like with a centralized router)

I like Cisco's WLC's as well. Where I am working we have a few hundred AP's at
one of our sites with WLC's running the show. The 5500 controllers with
CleanAir AP's is awesome.

I use ruckus in town and city installs and despite rather a lot of other APs it
performs very well.
I don't have experience of them in high connected station density though.

Hi,
We chose the 3Com, now H3C wx3012 controller and AP9552 accesspoints.
Initial issues where that blackberries could not connect to the wifi, the
support initially was mediocre.
Do note that this was at the time that everything got sold to HP. And they did
pick up the issue and came around w
t reporting functionality. They're more
expensive, though.
And then, yes, Cisco is the gold standard, but it will cost you some gold to
get it.
