Find out in this report how the two WAN Edge solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The file and data reduction capabilities are very good. Without it, we have a great deal of network congestion."
"First and foremost, it enables the customer to deploy high availability connections. This kind of solution enables them to deploy these HA connections for policies mostly automatically. It's a more automated approach than with other vendors."
"The platform is valuable for bandwidth reduction."
"The most valuable features of Silver Peak VX are we can register our customers and they can receive free training and all the solutions features."
"The most valuable feature of Silver Peak VX is the overall performance."
"The most valuable feature is the support for asymmetric lines."
"The most valuable feature of Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect is the boost."
"We had several clients that were paying $7,500 a month for an MPLS line for one single 10 megabit circuit and we were able to take that from $7,500 a month down to $500 a month for two 10 megabits circuits that added redundancy where before they did not have redundancy and it gave them a much better throughput."
"The visibility of the information that's available about APs through their cloud portal and some of the AI features are most valuable."
"The most valuable aspect of Mist Edge lies in its ability to provide comprehensive visibility into all network packets."
"They have to implement more security with it. The security, mainly their firewall functions, have to be included in the firewall features."
"In future releases, I would like to see security features, so Aruba might need some firewalls, like other vendors."
"The support, which is the direct support from Aruba, has shortcomings and needs to be improved."
"There are some functional limitations that could improve."
"I expect automation in the Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform's next release."
"The security can be improved, with the firewall for example, because they supply a basic one but not a UTM."
"The license features should improve in the solution. For example, when you purchase VMware, it starts at a low level that has some functionality. When you want to expand, the difference in the price is substantial. I purchased the lower functional version for $4,000, and now if I want to upgrade, they ask me for $80,000. This is a $76,000 difference, there's no logic, but this is VMware."
"More technical sessions should be offered for deploying the solution."
"I would like to see improvements in ensuring government compliance for Mist Edge."
"The one area that we're specifically looking into is their outdoor APs. The development of their outdoor APs is lagging as compared to their internal APs."
