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 system is more responsive for the users and we now have a system that can cope with future demands: now that we have the space and the bandwidth we need, we have the ability to create the new systems that the users want."
"It is easy to install and deploy."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it can work with many devices, supporting everything that we need it to and meeting all enterprise-standard requirements, with the main advantage being broad device support."
"Aruba Wireless does not have too many distinguishing feature sets. However, tunneling is more flexible in this solution than other solutions, such as Ruckus."
"The biggest selling point was the ability to create two different SSIDs to control public versus private wireless networks."
"Aruba is a very good company — very good technology-wise — and they make very useful products."
"Stability wise the product has been fairly rock solid."
"The scalability is the key here."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"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."
"Arista Mojo Wifi has improve stability, visibility anf performance across our enterprise."
"The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at, and in some cases, with some of the bigger names, this product was even close to half the price."
"We have found Mojo to be critical for us because of its patented security and its wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS). It is unique in the market."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"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."
 

Cons

"Automated RF optimization in Aruba Wireless is not a beneficial function."
"The stability is only decent."
"Every month Aruba has new firmware. I don't know if it's good or bad but it's not good in terms of production. We can't upgrade our firmware every month, especially an enterprise company, because if we upgrade our firmware based on the latest firmware that Aruba has, that firmware is not stable. They're not 100 percent sure about it."
"Currently, the stability of the code is the basic underlying problem for us."
"I don't like how the traffic comes out of the controller. Users connect to the wireless APs and all the traffic converges to the controller and then back out again."
"The management system would be better if it were more polished, if it had a better interface like, for example, Meraki"
"Customer service really needs to be improved."
"It could always be improved to be a better risk-related investment."
"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."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"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."
"The setup was complex."
"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 needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"There is so much licensing, you literally pay for every solution, add-on, or cool feature. Compared to others, we were in the middle with pricing, but as you start to invest more into features it will get very pricey."
"​We will be buying the ClearPass solution, which will be pricey. However, in the trial version, it has even more tools to manage a busy network.​"
"The price is reasonable. I would rate the cost as 8 out of 10."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten"
"Aruba is comparable to competing solutions when it comes to price."
"It offers a lower cost compared to other products, which is a significant advantage."
"​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. ​"
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
"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."
