"I believe the initial setup was straightforward."

More ADTRAN Bluesocket Wireless Pros →

"Unlike the Cisco solution that needs a dedicated wireless controller outside of a firewall, SonicWall has everything in one box. Fortinet is close to it.""A good management tool that can be managed through the cloud or firewall.""The platform's most valuable feature is the ability to provide cloud access to configure and manage devices."

More SonicWall SonicWave Access Points Pros →

Cons
"They should include SD-WAN features to it.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features.""The pricing is very high in the Indian market.""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.""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."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"Having a better dashboard management system that the client can use to access and control their environment would be a nice addition to the product.""Support is not really up to par in quickly addressing issues."

More ADTRAN Bluesocket Wireless Cons →

"Integrating with the firewall and management console was a little complex.""We have a lot of overlapping wireless networks with a lot of cheap equipment that does not run on any rules or regulations. The best way to improve the wireless network, like in SonicWaves, is to defeat these networks by isolating, preventing them, or overcoming their wireless signal. We try to do that, but I live near an airport, and the AirPortRadar glitches my wireless network every nine seconds.""The product's pricing is high and could be improved."
