Experience seamless connectivity with top-notch roaming capabilities
The Aruba Wireless solution has excellent roaming capabilities, ensuring seamless connectivity. Once installed, Aruba Wireless works robustly without overheating issues. This is particularly effective compared to other products I've used, like FortiMonitor and FortiAPs, which sometimes heat up. I am very satisfied with the roaming feature, as it ensures connectivity when moving from one location to another. The product's stability, after setting it up, adds to its value.

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 feature I found most valuable to customers in Aruba Wireless is not a technical feature. It's more of its image, trademark, or brand as the product is very well-known in the market, and that's a good point to offer to customers. My customers just ask about the basic features of the product, and usually, when asking about Aruba products, customers don't pay too much attention to any specific feature as long as the product is solid and sure, and that you can change or modify it, as what you can get from Aruba Wireless."
"​Our wireless overhaul has reduced the number of wireless related help desk tickets by nearly 90%.​"
"The solution is very stable."
"The solution has been helpful in improving the way our company functions."
"The most valuable features of Aruba Wireless are the seamless feature and the concurrent user."
"The most valuable feature is the client match."
"Aruba Wireless is easily scaled between a lot of devices and a lot of endpoints. When we decided to use it as our solution, we had planned to use it exactly for its ability to scale."
"Its manageability of APs is the most valuable feature: ease of adding APs and the ability to configure the APs on the fly. Also, their support engineers are great to work with."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"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."
"The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
 

Cons

"The dashboards that represent the network access control in Aruba Wireless could improve."
"Configuration could be made easier with more bandwidth than they offer at the moment."
"The solution's documentation could be better organized in an information portal."
"The price is high and not too reasonable. It is very high compared to other products."
"Aruba Wireless could improve the dashboard. It is not straightforward or intuitive to use and could be more user-friendly. For IT employees the dashboards are fine but when it comes to the end-user it is difficult. The Mobility Controller dashboard is not meant for non-IT employees."
"I had some problems with Wi-Fi coverage in the workshop, which required purchasing more devices."
"I would have liked to see more manufacturer driven events and outings to drive brand recognition and familiarity.​"
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"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."
"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.""
"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."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The pricing is fair and similar to other products."
"A recent change is that ClearPass licensing is superb. It counts user-based instead of device-based, for BYOD on-boarding."
"The pricing has increased and it was always more costly than some of the other solutions available."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is higher than other products, but you'll get stability, performance, and functionality out of it. On a scale of one to five, I'm rating the price of Aruba Wireless a three."
"​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. ​"
"Get multiple bids/quotes, and talk to the representatives about the limitations of the product; pretty standard."
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
