Aruba ClearPass Reviews

Our company provides professional services and we implement the features based on the customer requirement. All the features in ClearPass are good and work the way they need to.

Based on our implementations for many customers, it seems that they're most interested in the OnGuard feature that checks the compliance of corporate laptops and which restricts network access for users who are not compliant with security policies.

The reporting feature in ClearPass has found devices that are non-compliant had has addressed issues during the initial implementation phase.

Our customers also often request the guest feature, which they find very useful.

The OnGuard agent requires some enhancements.

We've used it for the last three years.

It works best when you plan deployment according to device behavior while integrated in the network.

It's been generally stable.

It scales well in our customer network environments.

Our TAC is very responsive and very helpful. They are able to provide solutions for all the new requirements by creating customized SQL queries and configs.

I worked initially with Cisco ISE, but I didn't really get to know it well. My company currently provides ClearPass solutions only.

We plan deployments considering all the configuring that needs to be done on the other integrated devices. The setup always ends up smooth and straightforward.

You should test all the requirements during the PoC itself so that the planning and deployment will be smooth.

The most valuable feature is the guest on-boarding (BYOD provisioning, centralized access policies, posture assessment, etc.)

It has improved WiFi security and guest on-boarding to our networks.

It could be more vendor independent.

I've used it for one year.

I have had issues in regards to the stability.

The technical support is satisfactory. However, there is a room for improvement.

I did not use any other similar product.

The initial setup was quite complex because of the lack of detailed documentation.

I implemented it in-house. My advice is to first set up the pilot for a small environment and then go all out.

Aruba Clearpass has a great set of networking securing features and, with its four modules policy manager, guests, onboard, and insight, it will give you the best NAC solution along with AAA, RADIUS, TACACS+ and BYOD features, which will help you to have a robust security on your network.

Actually with many projects, I implemented it to make all authentication centralized and all vLAN assignments automated along with health checks to make network security much easier.

We've been using it for over three years.

No issues encountered.

We use the platform to improve network security.

Aruba ClearPass's most valuable feature is dynamic segmentation. It assigns the right wired or wireless connections to the right user. We don't have to run the process manually.

The platform's API integration could be better. Additionally, its pricing could be affordable.

We have been using Aruba ClearPass for three years.

It is a stable product.

It is scalable for a small company.

The technical support team could work on a better process while escalating the issues from one engineer to another. Sometimes, we have to explain the issues from the beginning all over again.

My rating for the solution is ten out of ten.

The solution is used for integration with the third party. If you are not selective of the switches in Juniper or Huawei, then the third-party scan integration of ClearPass is distinct.

The customized modules for guests, the self-registration and login, one license for all, no license for guest users, and the self-integration of sandbox integration are the most valuable features. 

There is room for improvement in the support. 

I have been using the solution since 2015. I work with the latest version.
