More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"The triangulation feature can be used to determine where a person is in relation to the access point.""The cost is the most valuable aspect of this solution.""The most valuable aspect is that they operate on small microservices, offering numerous open APIs that enhance the value of our Wi-Fi network. This flexibility allows us to optimize various aspects such as workforce planning and occupancy management. The platform is highly open in the market, providing robust APIs for seamless integration with other tools. Currently, we leverage these capabilities at a building site, incorporating IoT sensors to gather data. The collected data is stored in a centralized location, and we plan to use AI for analysis. This analysis will include insights on peak activity times, humidity levels, temperature variations, and other relevant metrics within the building.""It's really easy to provision and support. Those are its main features.""Mist AI and Cloud is the best solution I have seen in the industry, especially from the artificial intelligence perspective, as it helps businesses.""Ability to control the access points by groups.""Regarding features, the solution seems to be very intuitive.""There are several valuable features. One of them is Cibas, and another one is Marvis."

More Mist AI and Cloud Pros →

"Omada Access Points are very good in terms of wired technologies and wired connectivity.""The initial setup is not complicated.""The pricing is reasonable.""The solution has been dependable and has kept up with modern technology.""Its sturdiness and cost-effectiveness are the most valuable features.""The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is easy to deploy and reliable.""The most valuable feature of TP-Link Auranet EAP is its high performance.""The solution's most valuable feature is its price."

More Omada Access Points Pros →

Cons
"The pricing should be made cheaper.""If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited.""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.""I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features.""Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"Mist AI and Cloud should be marketed more and focus on making partners in the industry.""The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license.""There is no local support for Mist in Brazil.""Regarding opportunities for improvement in Mist, it is notable for its robust cloud portal and integration of artificial intelligence into various services, creating a highly efficient environment for work. However, a drawback lies in the cost associated with its WiFi offerings. With a pricing range of twelve hundred to fifteen hundred dollars for a single Access Point, exclusive of the subscription, it is acknowledged as a relatively expensive solution in the realm of WiFi services. Despite this drawback, the positive attributes of Mist make it a noteworthy option.""The inter-functionality with other vendors was a negative for us.""In future releases, they need to add some router models. Because currently, it supports only SSR and WAN routers. But adding other routers would be good.""Configuration could be improved.""There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points."

More Mist AI and Cloud Cons →

"Aruba has better scaling capabilities.""The solution takes a long time to switch to another connection, which should be improved.""The technical support could be improved.""Omada's ordering platform could be improved, though. Some of their distributors are a pain to work with.""There is room for wider improvements and additional features to enhance managing capabilities.""We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem.""Upgrading the hardware capabilities to newer versions like Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7 would be a helpful improvement.""Omada could add some API integrations that would help with our automated solution. We're trying to integrate, and we're having some issues because some of the calls are not there. The API still needs some development."

    Overview

    Juniper Wireless Access Points work in conjunction with Juniper Mist Cloud Services and Mist AI to deliver premier wireless access capabilities. The Juniper Mist Edge extends microservices to the campus to bring agility and scale while enabling new applications at the edge.

    Mist AI uses a combination of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science techniques to optimize user experiences and simplify operations across the wireless access, wired access, and SD-WAN domains.

    Data is ingested from numerous sources, including Juniper Mist Access Points, Switches, Session Smart Routers, and Firewalls for end-to-end insight into user experiences. These devices work in concert with Mist AI to optimize user experiences from client-to-cloud, including automated event correlation, root cause identification, Self-Driving Network™ operations, network assurance, proactive anomaly detection, and more.

    Juniper also leverages Mist AI for next-generation customer support. It is the foundational element behind Marvis, the industry’s first AI-driven Virtual Network Assistant, which provides extensive insight and guidance to IT staff via a natural language conversational interface.

    With Mist AI, operators save time and money with faster problem resolution and fewer onsite visits. Users benefit from a network infrastructure that is more predictable, reliable, and measurable.

    Omada access points provide a business-class wireless network solution that’s flexible, manageable, secure, and easy-to-deploy. The free EAP Controller software allows users to manage hundreds of EAPs at multiple sites, all from a single location. The ability to control, adjust and visualize the entire network from any connected PC makes centralized business Wi-Fi management more efficient than ever before. Omada EAPs also feature captive portal and advanced RF management functions, which make them ideal for demanding, high-traffic environments such as campuses, hotels, malls and offices.
