I want to reiterate on AirConsole because it IS amazing. I don't even grab a laptop when I go onsite anymore, just an AirConsole, its usb-serial cable and a tablet. Laptop can be a requirement if you need more than a serial, but using serial-over-wifi and a tablet is an incredible quality of life upgrade if you only need a quick reconfigure most of the time. Even if you have to use a laptop, it's so much better to not be attached to the rack so you can find a more comfortable place to work. Although it's kinda strange that Andoid app is free but IOS one isn't. Also I wish I could use their wifi as a simple bridge without its own DHCP while using a serial, it'd be even more nice for troubleshooting.
