Aruba Wireless Reviews

Our company uses the solution to provide wireless service for our clients. 

There are less than 100 users of the solution across clients.

The solution provides a clear path to instant wireless. 

The solution needs to add features and enhance security. 

I have been using the solution for ten years.

The solution is very stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

The solution provides separate support lines for distributors and vendor specialists.

I rate technical support a ten out of ten. 

Our company has been a partner of the solution for the last ten years. 

The setup is easy and normally it goes smoothly. 

We partnered with a certified specialist for implementation. 

Two in-house engineers handle all maintenance. 

We also work with Cisco products.

I recommend using the solution and rate it a ten out of ten. 

I'm using Aruba Wireless for enterprise deployment that's more centralized.

What I like most about Aruba Wireless is its stability, functionality, and performance.

What needs improvement in Aruba Wireless is its access point, in particular, it should have more flexibility. Aruba Wireless has Campus AP, Instant AP, and Unified AP, but it would be better if the product has a generic access point that you can manage over the cloud, on-premise, etc.

Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is scalability.

In terms of what additional features I'd like to see in the product, I'm unsure if it's already on the roadmap, but if possible, it would be good to have an SD-WAN functionality on the AP in Aruba Wireless.

I have years of experience with Aruba Wireless.

Aruba Wireless has great stability, especially because it's from Aruba, a brand known for its stability and performance.

In general, the scalability of Aruba Wireless needs some improvement. The product needs to be more flexible in terms of scalability.

I would rate the technical support for Aruba Wireless as five out of five. It's quite impressive, though it's not perfect.

I compared Aruba Wireless with other solutions, and I found it to be a complete product. It's ahead of the competition, so I chose to work with it.

The initial setup for Aruba Wireless is straightforward. There's nothing complex about it.

The price of Aruba Wireless is higher than other products, but you'll get stability, performance, and functionality out of it.

On a scale of one to five, I'm rating the price of Aruba Wireless a three.

I'm working with Aruba Wireless.

My company has a partnership with Aruba.

My company is a technology provider, so it's not an enterprise user of Aruba Wireless.

I have experience with both the on-premise and cloud versions of the product.

I would recommend Aruba Wireless for enterprise customers. The product applies to multiple verticals.

Overall, my rating for Aruba Wireless is eight out of ten, and it's a product that I would recommend to others.

We are a solution provider and Aruba Wireless is one of the products that we implement for our clients. It provides wireless network access to local users.

One of our implementations is in a hospital, and we have also installed it in a few government offices.

The most valuable features are the Instant On capabilities, including the controller. You don't need to have a separate controller.

They should have more support for implementing Aruba Wireless in Smart Cities and outdoor applications.

The price of this product could be improved.

I have been working with Aruba Wireless products for more than five years.

Aruba Wireless is a stable product.

This solution scales easily.

The technical support is helpful.

The initial setup was not difficult. We had an issue during the implementation, but we fixed it when we contacted support.

My main concern about this product is the price. The cost is causing me to look at other vendors and competing products.

I am currently looking into dealing with similar products from Huawei. In our market, we are competing with other implementors.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We have many customers in the retail business using Aruba Wireless for their network.

The main features of the Aruba Wireless are universal and effective, covering most uses, a lifetime hardware warranty that sets it apart from the competition and it integrates seamlessly with the network access control solution - Aruba Clearpass

The GUI dashboards should more user-friendly.

I have been using Aruba Wireless for approximately four years.

I found the Aruba Wireless to be a stable solution. It is more stable than competitors especially in roaming.

The solution is scalable and stable 

We have opened a support ticket with technical assistance and I would rate the support from Aruba Wireless a four out of five when comparing it to Cisco or Juniper.

Positive

I have used Juniper and Cisco networking products previously.

The initial setup was simple to do.

My advice to others that want to implement Aruba Wireless is they have to study the solution and have a good understanding. Aruba has a good academy for studying.

I rate Aruba Wireless a nine out of ten.

It's simple to use.

The reliability could be improved.

I have been using this solution for five years.

The stability could be improved. 

The solution is scalable.

One a scale of one to five, I would give their technical support a two. It could be better.

Setup is straightforward.

I would rate this solution 7 out of 10. 

My advice is that if you don't have experience, you should find a partner for support rather than rely on the company.

The product can be used in all verticals. There are different kinds of use cases. Mostly, it is used in corporate settings, however, we also use solutions for distribution centers, et cetera.

We sell the solution and we do due to the fact that we think it's the best solution overall. We usually are researching other solutions also, as you have to know what you're competing against. That said, we've never been disappointed by its capabilities.

Overall, it's a very strong solution.

The solution is stable.

The scalability is great. 

The pricing could always be better.

Technical support needs work. It's hard to reach the right people you need to help you when you come face to face with issues. 

I can't say that they are missing any features at this time. There's nothing I can think of needing in the next release. 

We have been Aruba's partner for the last 16 years.

The stability is good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's very reliable. 

We've found the solution to be scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so easily.

Technical support needs to be more responsive. It takes time to get to the proper person when you need help. The solution itself is better than the support on offer.

For us, it's easy to set up. I don't know if this is the case for everyone, but for us, it's easy. We have people that are certified in solutions, including Aruba. We know how to handle implementations quite effectively.

The time it takes for the deployment depends on the size, however, usually, the process is one to two weeks.

As integrators, we can implement this product for our clients. 

We'd like Aruba to lower the cost of using the solution. 

While we really like Aruba, we usually are researching other solutions also, as you have to know what you're competing against.

We sell wireless solutions. We are integrators. We also use the solution. We deal with multiple deployment versions.

If a company would like to add Aruba to their organization, they should first get a knowledgeable system integrator that knows the solution. If they do, the deployment will go well and they will be okay.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten overall.

We installed Aruba Wireless for some clients who needed to expand their network inside offices or homes.

It's an excellent solution overall. We were able to increase capacity very easily.

This type of equipment is easy - very easy to connect and configure inside a network. For example, you can use a cell phone to configure. It is very, very simple. 

When you want to check if the equipment is working it's quite straightforward. You can do it just with a cell phone. You can check if you've got any problem or any type of equipment connected to the network. It's useful to be able to check what the equipment is connected to or if there is a mesh connection between other APs. You don't need to use a physical cable.

While I haven't used it, Aruba has a server that can not just check the equipment, but also validate or log into the network. This type of server is wonderful, however, I don't know the name.

The initial setup is quite simple.

Many features are already in development. For example, Aruba Central, or the server to verify the type of equipment is connected to the network centrally. It's very useful and is a good solution for home or business, and it supports more than 200 pieces of equipment.

We're not really missing any features at this time. 

They could work on energy consumption as this equipment needs a lot of energy. This is probably what needs to be improved in the future, as, currently, this type of equipment consumes more than 60 watts. I understand that it needs more power to work, however, there must be a way to lessen it in future releases.

We've worked with this solution throughout the year.

The solution is stable and allows you to connect any kind of equipment - cell phones, tablets, laptops, any type of equipment that has a wifi connection. It is very easy to connect. There are no issues. There can be about 50 or 60 pieces of equipment working at the same time without losing connection or velocity, or use of equipment.

The solution can scale well and has helped us to increase capacity.

We don't have plans to increase usage at this time.

We installed one first, the first AP, the first equipment, and the others' equipment could connect without a network cable - just by mesh, like a network without cables. We increased the capacity of the network with this type of technology solution.

It is very easy to use. You just load an app on your cell phone from the Apple Store. You can continue with this application on your cell phone.

I would rate the solution at a ten out of ten. We've been quite satisfied with its capabilities. 

In this University, Wi-Fi is essential to the daily operations, from teaching, learning by staff and students to research by researchers. In recent two years, it contributes to our smart campus objectives, bridging IoT devices in multiple projects. 

With the powerful feature in ClearPass, AirWave, MM and other subsystems, this centrally managed Wi-Fi solution offers the University members and guests a unified user experience, enabling IT staff to administer all component, particularly in search of a technical issue. 

The ClearPass admin console provides an easy operating interface for checking every user's authentication steps, which is pretty useful to identify the root cause of an authentication issue. Also, the self-service portal allows end-users to manage their registered devices. 

Perhaps Aruba should publish some best practices for deploying its solution in different industries. 

Aruba Wi-Fi solution has been a good partner in my University since 2017.

A very powerful Wi-Fi system.

They provide very efficient support.

Aruba solution is not cheap.
