WiFi and network management software

I'm looking for a software suite that I can use to analyze our public and private WiFi usage, along with the wired network (but I need to analyze the public WiFi traffic at a granular level, so it must do both very well). I'm currently running a Cisco enterprise WiFi network with roughly 150 WAPs and 3 controllers.

It can be freeware, but I'm looking for the best tool, not the lowest cost. And it would help for this to have decent canned reports, and a clean user interface, there may be times that my desktop support person accesses this, and he's not a network engineer!

Have you looked at solarwinds network monitor? Kind of pricey but should do what you ask, they have a free 30 day trial.

Yes, I've looked at it, but I fear it might be too way many features for what I'm looking for. I should mention that this is a smaller environment, and a non-profit as well.
I use inSSider on my own computer and they have inSSider Office for a network of devices and Wi-Fi. I suggest you take a look at it as it might fit your situation .
