Featured Reviews

SreejeshSoman - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Consultant at Vertex Techno Solutions (B) Pvt Ltd
Has supported mid-market deployments with cloud-based centralized management and reliable wireless performance
I faced challenges earlier with a limitation of 50 APs in single sites, but that has enhanced to 100 numbers, eliminating that challenge for Aruba Instant On team. Additionally, some features are not listed in the cloud management platform and still require offline access, so enhancing the cloud management features would be better for us.
Robert Wambani - PeerSpot reviewer
CTO at JabJabGroup
Offers great control and visibility to users, along with availability on the cloud
The other solutions did not offer the visibility that Mojo Networks offered. During the rolling out of the installation process, you have to go through the on-premises model to be able to make some changes. If somebody needs to make necessary changes, you must go to the on-premises model with the initial product. With the cloud solution, you don't have to go for the on-premises model, as you can make the changes over the cloud. The stability offered by Mojo Networks is better than the other products available in the market since, with other tools, you need to keep restarting them frequently, and it may be required once or twice a day, especially if it is used as an enterprise solution or in an enterprise environment, where the traffic is too high, causing the build-up of a lot of cache memory, fill-ups, and SRAM, a reason why one will have to restart such products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This is a very solid product. It is very powerful."
"It was a straightforward setup, as I built a duplicate network on the product that allowed me to replace all the Cisco equipment by simply unplugging the cables from Cisco and plugging them into the new product."
"The coverage of the solution is great."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"The solution provides a very good end-user experience."
"When users want to migrate from one location to another, they face no problems with connectivity."
"The most beneficial features for network management are the price and the cloud console."
"Allows network monitoring through mobile devices"
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"Arista Mojo Wifi has improve stability, visibility anf performance across our enterprise."
"The technical support is pretty good."
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes."
 

Cons

"The tool's support quality has changed since HPE acquired it. It is also impossible to tell the log dates."
"The product’s GUI must be improved."
"Integration between the two is pricey and that would be my one complaint about this product."
"If you need to access the master access point the integration between the two becomes quite expensive."
"Technical support needs improvement. We use the forum for technical support assistance, but it's not enough. If you're talking with a technician, they're in India. They cannot give you the service that you need. Sometimes have problems with some personal services and technical support is not helpful in this area."
"My biggest problem with Aruba Instant was the DHCP implementation."
"In a corporate environment or a larger network, where more advanced filtering or MAC-based filtering is needed, I don't think the IAPs would be sufficient."
"The meshing could use improvement but aside from that nothing else really needs improvement."
"The user interface could use improvement, and Mojo is working on it. The features and functions are in two different places, and they are in the process of moving them into one place."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"Both further expanding the API and access to even more diagnostics, as I have found a few limitations when I am dealing with them right now."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"Something that could be improved is the ability to easily and quickly see what speed someone is on and if there are any issues on the network. We are using the older software technology, so maybe their newest version is able to do that."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"Avoid the Central cloud license if you can."
"I purchased the hardware and there are no monthly or yearly licenses to buy."
"It's a one time cost, including the upgrades, but you have to pay on a yearly basis if you want support. The price is in the middle in comparison to that of competitors' products."
"The product has increased its pricing by at least 30 percent."
"I personally would rather pay that little bit more and get what I need because I know what I'm getting, as opposed to going for something cheaper that's not as manageable and doesn't give as much."
"It is not expensive. Its price is fair. You get many features with the normal licensing. If I look at Cisco, it is very expensive if I need similar things."
"In terms of costs, Aruba Instant is cheap because it doesn't require a license, but you'll incur charges for the access points. Access point charges could be more affordable."
"The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at. In some cases, with some of the big names, this product was even close to half the price."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"There are other solutions, like Ubiquiti, that have lowered their prices, which sometimes makes the argument to go with them. However, we do not bake in the WiFi for other vendors into our managed services, because they do not meet our standard offering."
"Since they have only the cloud and on-premises platform, the price looks good compared to the other OEMs like Cisco and Ruckus. For one of the Wi-Fi 6 access points for five years, they might be charging 20,000 to 25,000 INR."
"They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
"Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
