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

"It's a good solution for small businesses because it's easy to figure out. It's simple to set Aruba up in any configuration, like link aggregation or static loads. It's suitable for less complicated configurations, whereas Cisco devices are bigger and more difficult to implement."
"When users want to migrate from one location to another, they face no problems with connectivity."
"The most valuable feature of this product is that it is easily deployed."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Instant is its cloud capability, which allows us to manage it through the cloud."
"The deployment is easy."
"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."
"I like the Instant On switches and the AP22"
"The technical support from Aruba is of high quality, and I would rate it a ten."
"Arista Wifi (Mojo) is highly scalable with a single pane of glass for management, and its troubleshooting capabilities and deep insights are praiseworthy, which together reduce management efforts and help you achieve a great ROI."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"Built-in guest analytics and advanced guest portal features allow our customers to create a guest experience which is typically only available with complex and expensive third-party software."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
 

Cons

"My biggest problem with Aruba Instant was the DHCP implementation."
"The product’s GUI must be improved."
"The product is a little expensive."
"There is a scope for improvement in pricing for Aruba Instant products."
"Aruba Instant can improve by increasing the gigabit range of the switch or by adding additional management features and tools. It can be helpful."
"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."
"The support offered by Aruba is slow."
"The tool's customer service should improve."
"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 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."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is reasonably priced."
"Aruba Instant is affordable."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"In my region right now, Aruba Instant comes with a default two-year cloud access license."
"We only pay for the support and the contract licenses from Aruba Instant."
"There’s no licensing required to use the tool."
"Aruba Instant is a free subscription with a limited lifetime warranty."
"The licensing cost is somewhere around $20,000."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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 cost is a one-time fee."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
