A highly scalable solution empowered with an AI-driven network management system
I use the solution to pull videos from buses in a bus terminus The bus drivers were not declaring ticket sales done on the bus. The solution helps us to know exactly how many tickets they've sold and how much money they've collected. It doesn't allow the drivers to steal money from the bus…

Great speed, easily expands, and offers helpful documentation
We use the solution in one local and one remote office. For now, these are two isolated Express clusters. However, we plan to migrate to an Enterprise configuration in the central site and set up remote WiFi for our second office.  A few isolated WLAN were implemented to provide QoS and…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is very secure."
"The simplicity is great."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"Express in default configuration mode with first turn-on is easy to set up and deploy from a medium installation standpoint."
"There is a definite ROI with this product. This product creates a baseline of technology that will be a means to grow from five to ten years from now. By using this solution, it is an investment on the installation of that baseline."
"The features aren't much different than those in Aruba, but deployment is easier to configure and the pricing is better."
"We are very satisfied with the performance."
"The solution allows you to see the SNMP packets, the DPI packets, and the SNMP server."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"One feature that differentiates Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar from some other vendors is the fact that on-premise OmniVista licenses are perpetual."
"I have worked with different solutions in the past and switched to Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar because of its quick installation time. It requires no additional preparation. The product is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support of this solution is great. The timeliness of their responses is crucial for me. When I raise an issue, I can count on receiving a prompt reply, eliminating the need for extensive online searches or phone calls."
"The solution works well and in the short time I have used it, I've enjoyed its capabilities."
"Ubiquiti WLAN has been stable and is easy to install."
"All of the interfacing is very good."
"The tool's deployment is very easy. The deployment of 15 access points can take a day."
"It is a very stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the level of security on the Wi-Fi network."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti WLAN is its stability."
"The most beneficial thing about Ubiquiti is that it is simple to deploy."
 

Cons

"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"The solution is expensive."
"It needs to be faster in order to process and transmit bigger packets."
"It is not possible to integrate Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar with third-party software like Opera, a property management system (PMS)."
"The current implementation of our Guest Access network in isolation for Express mode is very complicated in comparison with leading market solutions."
"There are occasional OS bugs."
"Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar's radio management side could be improved."
"If the customers plan to go on the cloud side, they need encryption and daily communications from a security perspective."
"I would prefer to have the integrated heat map feature provided by the basic controller in the Solution instead of purchasing an external one. Accessing this capability directly within the controller's access point would be convenient."
"Better integration with third-party systems is what our customers are expecting in the future."
"Ubiquiti WLAN only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi radio and would be improved by including support for 5GHz."
"During the configuration, we cannot get information on the network level from the regular interface."
"They could enhance their products by integrating cloud access into each device."
"The solution should improve stability."
"Ubiquiti WLAN would be improved with the addition of individual AP configuration, which would allow for fine-tuning of individual access points and logins."
"If they can integrate or release a single platform because, currently, there are two different platforms for switches and routers. So, maintaining just one unified platform, like, for example, unifying the models or brands, and avoiding separate platforms for edge switches, edge routers, and other Ubiquiti products, would simplify the integration and implementation process."
"The solution should include and expand on a central management system."
"Largely we're happy with the product, however, the firmware deployments could maybe be managed a little bit differently."

"The pricing is fair."
"The solution is expensive."
