There are good reasons to head for Insight and an Insight Premium subscription, like RRM aka. Smart WiFi for example -> How do I use Smart WiFi or Auto-Radio Resource Management (RRM) in Insight?

Managing and maintaining multiple WAC505/510 (as of writing) in Insight is a pleasure, adding more WAC is a snap. I'll never look back to the by-device Web management.

Thanks. I will stick with web management and keep Insight turned off.

Are there any settings that are available thru Insight that cannot be accessed thru web management ?

  Wouldn't it be wise to add this information abut the HMM including the link (assuming its content will continued to be maintained) with the WAC Web UI instead of the vague pop-up telling about the Insight mode and some greyed out feaures (its more shaded in fact)?
  
  Further on, as the HMM is becoming a part of the design, please add an option to disable this intrusive pop-up.
