"The tool's most valuable feature is Captive Portal, which we employ for our guest network. It enables us to create a separate virtual subnet for guests, ensuring their network traffic remains isolated from our office network. Another valuable feature is its role-based access control. This functionality allows us to assign different access privileges to users based on their roles within the organization."
"We like being able to merge Aruba Instant to mobile via Bluetooth. You are also able to perform a lot of functions remotely such as creating an SSID IP."
"The most valuable feature of this product is that it is easily deployed."
"The coverage of the solution is great."
"The features I have found most valuable is that the solution creates a guest portal for guest networks, and setting up SSID authentication to the regular server."
"If you don't need heavy-duty filtering and things like that, it's a cheap solution. And, you have central management, and it works."
"I like the Instant On switches and the AP22"
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The solution is stable."
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."

"Juniper Mist offers valuable features like comprehensive network insight, granular policy control, fast device setup, strong security, and efficient SSL traffic management."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"The support offered by Aruba is slow."
"In a corporate environment or a larger network, where more advanced filtering or MAC-based filtering is needed, I don't think the IAPs would be sufficient."
"The product's high cost is an area where improvements are required."
"For on-premises, I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. For on-prem, if I want to integrate two more controls, and I want to extend my network , and add a couple of access points that need to be integrated with my network, I have to do the configurations and all. So that will be each and every time, as and when the users expand, the Wi-Fi solution expands; I need to do the configuration settings on all other controllers."
"Aruba Instant should not have a limit on users for future releases."
"It is good as it is. If anything, its reporting could be improved."
"The security features must be improved."
"I believe there's room for improvement in monitoring, especially when troubleshooting issues. Currently, there's limited intelligence around monitoring. It needs to improve stability and scalability."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"The solution is expensive."
"The price could be better."
"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."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
