Am I the only one who thinks the built-in wireless controller is weak?

I'm setting up a Firebox M270 with the built-in wireless controller for our new office. I've got about 30 APs to manage.

The interface feels sluggish when making config changes, and applying updates to the AP group takes noticeably longer than I expected. It also seems to lack some of the granular reporting I've seen in dedicated controllers. Am I missing a setting, or is this just how it is?

For those with more experience, is this typical for the integrated controller on the Firebox? Should I be looking at a separate wireless solution for this scale?
