Thinking about corporate applications...

Does it accommodate mobile APs on smart phones or personal hot spot devices? Seems those might confuse it in an enterprise setting.

Also, I would assume that the software will differentiate APs with the same SSID as in an enterprise situation and rely on MAC IDs. But just so I don't have to assume, can you confirm that it does?

Yes, it will differentiate APs with the same SSID as it relies on MAC IDs. I use it at my university with no problem (which is an enterprise situation).

It uses mobile hot spot information, however if the hot spots disappear it will not affect the results too badly, as long as there are some permanent AP fixtures. Anecdotally, I've used this system in airports (which house many personal hotspots) and it still has good recognition.
