Wireless network has supported long-term reliable access and simplifies RF optimization
I have experience with Cisco products and the Cisco brand. The product is mainly a hardware product. Regarding the software part, I don't have a lot of experience. Aruba Wireless was not too difficult to set up. When compared with other products such as Cisco, they also have products with wireless controllers, and it's similar to that. I think it should be recommended for both bigger and smaller companies based on the feedback and our experience. I believe there should be AI functions that might help us in some cases of cybersecurity matters, detecting threats regarding security would be better with AI. For this role, I have more than twenty years of experience. I would rate Aruba Wireless eight out of ten overall.

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

"The web-based GUI is much simpler to use than similar products by Cisco."
"It provides superior WiFi access and RF management."
"I haven't had any issues with it to date, and it's a pretty robust product."
"Aruba gives me the security that I need because we have WiFi for employees and the public, and it allows me to monitor them and block them or do whatever I need to to keep them in check."
"We had a lot of downtime with Aerohive, but after shifting to Aruba, we haven't seen any downtime and we've gone two years without interruptions to critical services like Zoom calls and email."
"The feature that I love the most is being able to broadcast different SSIDs with different protocol requirements."
"The solution is quite stable and very robust."
"With the powerful feature in ClearPass, AirWave, MM and other subsystems, this centrally managed Wi-Fi solution offers the University members and guests a unified user experience, enabling IT staff to administer all component, particularly in search of a technical issue."
"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."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"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."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
"The most important feature is ease of use. We can simply take an access point and plug it in, then it is automatically configured for us."
"The solution is always easy to use and deploy, and the ease of use is one of the main reasons clients are moving from Cisco to Arista."
"It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network."
 

Cons

"Aruba Wireless could improve the interface, it does not have a smart web interface. Other solutions have smart web interfaces, such as Cisco Meraki."
"Aruba Wireless is very expensive."
"It's a little bit over-complicated. They could simplify the interface."
"I believe that Aruba's support could be improved."
"I would have liked to see more manufacturer driven events and outings to drive brand recognition and familiarity."
"The stability and management could be improved."
"What needs improvement in Aruba Wireless is its access point, in particular, it should have more flexibility. Aruba Wireless has Campus AP, Instant AP, and Unified AP, but it would be better if the product has a generic access point that you can manage over the cloud, on-premise, etc. Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is scalability. In terms of what additional features I'd like to see in the product, I'm unsure if it's already on the roadmap, but if possible, it would be good to have an SD-WAN functionality on the AP in Aruba Wireless."
"I think the setup and the configuration of Aruba is complex."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"Compared to other OEMs, Mojo Networks or Arista faces a little bit of coverage issues. So, if we put the same dBm, the power of the other OEMs indicates much more extensive coverage compared to Mojo or Arista."
"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."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"Needs greater simplicity in the management portal. Currently, the Mojo portal presents different “apps” to configure the devices, create splash pages, configure security settings, and monitor the network. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Aruba Wireless is very attractive cost-wise."
"​AP signal strength and price. I know this is a competitive market, but APs should not cost so much if they do not cover a large area. ​"
"I would rate the cost as an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"My main concern about this product is the price. The cost is causing me to look at other vendors and competing products."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"Pricing is competitive. Licensing is needed to maintain access to the latest firmware, which wasn't made clear originally when we started with Arbua (or things changed, I'm not sure which). I would just say, make sure you budget for it."
"​Trial different solutions and compare pricing to how well they perform, their stability, how easy it is to maintain, etc."
"If you compare it to other solutions then it's reasonably priced."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"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."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
