"I would rate the stability a nine out of ten."
"It has improved my organization by increasing troubleshooting opportunities which makes things more efficient."
"It can interact with other vendors better than Cisco, which is a good point of AirWave. It is easy to use, and its reporting is good."
"The solution's initial setup process is straightforward."
"This solution is definitely stable."
"It's scalable because it's licensed per device and we bought licenses with each device. I would rate it a nine out of ten for scalability."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Airwave is the multivendor support, which enables you to manage and monitor different vendors or products."
"The product greatly improved our organization in terms of making configuration, deployment, and firmware upgrades easy for multiple automated devices."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist Wired Assurance is zero-touch provisioning for query edge switches. You can connect the switch directly to your edge locations and then directly onboard, similar to the Cisco Meraki solutions."
"We encounter delayed ETAs in the manufacturing of hardware."
"Pricing for Aruba Airwave could be cheaper, which is an area for improvement in the solution."
"The integration with other platforms like Cisco needs to be improved."

"I would like to see an integration of services into one system, rather than having multiple systems to do multiple things."
"Whenever you get an error it doesn't immediately tell you what the thing is that is causing the error. You have to sit down and research it. If it could say what error is causing the issue, it would make my troubleshooting a lot quicker."
"Cost is always a big issue for partners."
"We're looking for more device compatibility. Like compatibility with third-party devices."
"The configuration aspect of the solutions is relatively new, but I have had positive experiences. However, for more advanced tasks, such as VXLANs on the EX platform, Juniper Mist Wired Assurance may not be the best option due to certain limitations. Nonetheless, it does have a CLI override feature for specialized configurations that cannot be done through the GUI."
"The platform’s monitoring tool is not up to the mark. It is not proactive enough and lacks some capabilities. Additionally, they should work on providing integration with other vendors."
