Have 1 client with eero a prior installer did. 3 of them in the home. Roaming on it sucks. Handoff is not good. They get stuck not handing off or sometimes it will completely drop wifi versus handing off. And sometimes it works fine. Personally I would like to throw them all in a trash and do a real network with a hardwired backbone between access points.
I am kind of surprised all the "pros" on here recommending Eero. I'd roll out ubiquiti or ruckus in a second (with a hardwired backbone between access points) over rolling out eero in any situation that a wired backbone was practical.
Also eero doesn't even have a web gui. No adjustments for radio power to help with roaming and handoff. And about 35 other limitations I can rip off the top of my head.
These things are hardly professional network hardware.
So dozens of guys here and other forums have had no issues with Eero, roaming included, and the one system you've experienced is a good indicator of how Eero works? What gen Eero? How is the placement? What firmware? I've got Eero in houses where Luxul and UBNT had issues with handoff and roaming, throughput issues and range issues due to inability to get wiring where we needed for extra APs due to house construction. Eero fixed all of those issues.
