i cant find anywhere and the is not yet reviews about festa products.. so can i use controller (for example Festa FR205) without cloud localy? i bought  Festa FS328GP 28-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch and was very dissapointed to find out it is actually dumb switch without controller. Now im thinking about buying controller but if its againd dumb without 

cloud i will send back.

  @njok I just go my FR205 today. First time logging into the device there were minimal setting - just enough to setup the network for my laptop to connect to it. Dug around for 30~60mins and I can't find any meaningful settings.  I gave up and sign up to Festa Cloud Controller and eventually found the rest of the setting in the cloud. 
Please note, once you registered the FR205, you can't even login locally to the device - it just say the device is being managed by the controller.

Festa is not intended to be used locally. If you need a controller, that's a cloud controller. No other options like the Omada.

Festa Controller is intended to be hosted on the cloud entirely and you manage everything from this cloud controller. No local controller for Festa.
