We performed a comparison between Aruba Instant On Access Points and Cambium Networks Wireless LAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Juniper Mist offers valuable features like comprehensive network insight, granular policy control, fast device setup, strong security, and efficient SSL traffic management."
"The solution is very secure."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"The simplicity is great."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"With a variety of switches in their setup, they find that Aruba's online monitoring tools and configuration options for applications effectively manage most of their requirements, all while keeping the process straightforward and user-friendly."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"Its performance is very good. It suits small and medium sites very well."
"I would rate the stability of this solution a ten out of ten."
"It's super user-friendly."
"The product is user-friendly and helps with cost minimization."
"This solution is extremely user-friendly; it is very easy to configure and work with."
"The cloud-based management provided by Cambium Networks is particularly valuable to us, as it allows us to efficiently manage Wi-Fi, point-to-point connections, firewalls, and switches across various locations from a centralized platform. This enables us to be proactive in providing support and ensures smooth operations for our clients."
"What I like best about Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is that it's easy to configure, has no licensing hassle, and is a controller-based solution."
"They all have controllers built in, and we manage them all with a web-based management tool."
"It is a stable and secure platform."
"Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is easy to deploy. The implementation can take two weeks to four months."
"The product has valuable throughput capabilities. It also has an inbuilt spectrum analyzer for stable connectivity."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"The price could be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"It's only suitable for smaller offices. It doesn't scale well."
"The solution should include higher speed and lesser cost."
"If anything, its reporting could be improved."
"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."
"While it is mostly scalable, there are some limitations."
"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."
"I would like to see a feature that blocks, increases, or decreases bandwidth capacity for devices."
"The tool's pricing is not good."
"The capacity and coverage could be improved."
"Our areas for improvement would be a refresh with the most recent technology available."
"The problem with this radio wireless technology is that it cannot compete in terms of bandwidth with the fiber optics at this moment. That's the biggest weakness."
"The platform's cost needs improvement."
"The solution should be scalable, offering better pricing options as we optimize the network for coverage, capacity, and quality"
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"The product pricing needs improvement."
"What could be improved in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is its efficiency in large areas because we noticed that there's a need to increase the APs in large rooms or spaces for the Wi-Fi to be more efficient. Another area for improvement in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is bandwidth management. This is a feature that Meraki has that allows you to control user bandwidth, so my company has a pilot project to test Meraki Wireless LAN. Bandwidth control is an additional feature I'd like to see in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN as that would make the solution better."
