Does anyone recommend any new model controller which can work with the WLC4402 and in the CAPWAP environment?
My controller is ran out of the license, I want to add more AP but the only way is to add one more controller or replace it.
What do you recommend?

If you are looking to upgrade, teh 5508 will support up to 500 AP in a single unit.

If money is very tight, you can still find used and refurbished WLC 4402 systems at many places online. Of course, they are coming to End Of Life where they will no longer get software updates from Cisco, but if you feel they work well enough, and they get cheap enough that you can get a spare for a backup, it might be a way to go. (The 5508 is better, and works with current software, so it really is a preferred way to go, but it is also more expensive.)
