NG is cloud based and requires a paid subscription (entitlement key). Connect is cloud based and does not require a subscription but has limited features (the free version of NG basically). Online is the legacy platform that isn't cloud based but has been around longer, and that needs a paid subscription too.

You can try either NG platform out for free for 30 days if you go to cloud.aerohive.com and register.

In general, NG has less features than classic because it hasn't been around as long, but it seems like any new features go in to NG.

Thank you. We have been an Aerohive user, with 8 AP230’s and AMOL. Can I convert my management to my AP’s to NG and still maintain the Configs in my Hive? Thanks.

You'd have to have the APs in the manager you have your configuration in. Plus you can only use your licenses in one place, so I don't think you can use two managers at the same time without separate licenses.

Thanks. I have already asked my sales person to send me a quote for a new entitlement key.
