Find out in this report how the two Wireless LAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The simplicity is great."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"The product is scalable. It has 20 users."
"The mobile app is good. We have many things that are connected through mobile. Most users use mobile to connect to the Wi-Fi."
"The app and the provisioning are the best features of the product. It was really impressive that I was able to just provision it remotely. I didn't have to be on-site with my friend, and we were just able to get everything up and operational. So, the app is great. It sends me notifications when things are down, and it tells me how everything is doing."
"When an error or alert happens, I receive it in the application. I do not have to be there to know if something is wrong."
"It's super user-friendly."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"Regarding access points, the customer typically considers low-cost plans, and Ruckus Unleashed Access Points are commonly used. These access points are managed through the Microsoft console and can be accessed either with or without ports. The management is done through a controller. The main benefits customers see include cost-effectiveness, especially for those with budget constraints. Aruba, in particular, provides a good user experience. Some customers might choose Huawei, but enterprise access points are also considered. Additionally, the unified access point capabilities are valuable, allowing management from the same account. However, there is a limitation of twenty-five access points, and if a customer requires more, they need to create another site or account. If the customer exceeds twenty-five access points, they need to generate another site or virtual business to manage additional access points, as the external number is limited to twenty-five."
"Aruba is much better than other vendors like Cisco and NETGEAR in terms of quality, price, and value for money."
"Installation is relatively easy."
"It provides excellent performance and security through the use of available features and policies, reducing the reliance on external firewall configurations while ensuring a secure and reliable network environment."
"I have found the most valuable features are the new Wi-Fi six technology and it also integrates with triple-A solutions. It has good bandwidth and virtual control."
"Aruba Wireless is stable and we plan to continue using it in the future."
"It offers an easy initial setup."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it can work with many devices. It supports everything that we need it to."
"It's a very stable system."
"I have not experienced any bugs, software, or hardware issues with Aruba."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"The solution is expensive."
"When there are a lot of people connected, especially during video streaming demonstrations, the connection can get a bit choppy."
"The setup is not very easy. It requires some experience with Wi-Fi, especially with cloud connection and security."
"Software-wise, I would like to have a way of moving APs from site to site and wish there would be a way to add more APs to one site. I know the limit is 25 APs per site and I wish there were more."
"The tool is priced high."
"If there's a way to get a floor map of our office space so we can place the access points on a map to be able to see what's what, where everything is going, where the most traffic is being connected, that would be a nice feature."
"The tool's pricing is not good."
"The limited functionality of the mobile app restricts its use primarily to small and medium-sized setups, making it less suitable for enterprise-level solutions."
"The solution can be more integrated with other brands."
"We needed the help of network consultants to complete the setup for us."
"The Help option within the GUI needs to be improved."
"To enhance the system, more work on integration would be beneficial."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"Not cost-effective."
"The latest design of their APs removes the console port and requires purchasing an expensive proprietary cable just to access the console."
"The solution could be improved on the security side."
"Sometimes the configuration is difficult."
