|---|---|---|
| Manager ITSM at Lucky Cement Limited | 4.5 | I am using Aruba 7030 Wireless for its excellent roaming capabilities, which ensure seamless connectivity across locations. The product is stable and robust, though improvements in pricing are needed. Its time-saving benefits have made it superior to FortiMonitor. |
| IT Infra Deputy Vice President at ESFB | 3.5 | We use Aruba Wireless to connect our office network with excellent performance, especially their advanced controller that connects to the cloud. Although it surpasses Cisco, it needs better guest access compatibility without external software for seamless integration. |
| AGM - Infrastructure & Information Security at Aster DM Healthcare | 2.5 | We use Aruba Wireless in our hospitals in India and the UAE to connect devices and provide guest access. The Aruba Central portal effectively monitors devices, but access points slow down with high user density. Evaluating ROI after five years. |
| Manager, BU Cybersecure Network Services Delivery at NPO Sistemas | 4.0 | I've used Aruba Wireless for a year and prefer it over FortiGate due to better security and customization, though setup isn't simple. Support is solid, and we see time savings as ROI. Overall, we rate it eight out of ten. |
| IT Infrastructure at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees | 4.0 | I primarily use Aruba Wireless to locate devices and manage guest access, appreciating its simplicity in network management. I switched from Cisco due to instability and security issues but needed more devices to improve Wi-Fi coverage. |
| Datacenter Admin at IECC | 4.5 | Our company uses Aruba Wireless daily in the healthcare sector because of its unique protocols managed by our firewall. Although improvements are needed, particularly in adding more protocols, its cost-effectiveness and user-friendly interface made it preferable over Cisco. |
| Senior Network Engineer at Zerone Technologies | 4.5 | I use Aruba Wireless, specifically ClearPass, for its robust authentication features in the corporate banking sector. It integrates well with Azure AD, though improved zero-touch provisioning, including better cloud solutions, would enhance its functionality. |
| Consultant at Lantec | 4.5 | I use Aruba Wireless solutions for enterprise access and office open spaces, appreciating its built-in virtual controller that eliminates the need for extra hardware and saves costs. While management is easy and scalable, the access points could be more affordable. |
