Strong performance supports network team effectively but guest access compatibility needs improvement
We connect the network using Aruba Wireless. We connect our office network, and we use it primarily within our network team Aruba Wireless has many features, especially their state-of-the-art controller, which can be connected to the cloud. They also have an unlimited lifetime warranty, which is…

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

"With Aruba Wireless Controller, all our access points are connected to one controller. Through that controller, we can actually handle each access point; we can disconnect or connect that access point, and then we can tell, or see, or allow how many users are, or should be, connected through that access point."
"The biggest selling point was the ability to create two different SSIDs to control public versus private wireless networks."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is multi-tenancy."
"The most valuable feature in this product would be the stability. You build it, install it, and it’s good to go, with no further tweaks needed unless adding or replacing APs."
"It has very flexible features."
"The solution has been helpful in improving the way our company functions."
"The initial setup was very simple."
"Support for both on-premises and cloud environments has proven effective for network management."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The solution is very stable."
"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."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Their Cognitive WiFi analytics (Mojo Aware) is the biggest feature on their dashboard. It helps us know where the problem, so we don't have to spend time with the customer diagnosing it."
"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."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
 

Cons

"We have had issues with the availability of the equipment."
"The solution's GUI for configuration could be better."
"There were some settings which were confusing and unlabeled when trying to use the online help with the newer firmware.​"
"An area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is creating a DMZ. Without Aruba ClearPass, you need to allow guess access directly via the internet, which means you need to implement the security in between, so this is what I'd like Aruba to improve in the product."
"Aruba Wireless is a little bit complex to use and operate."
"I would have liked to see more manufacturer driven events and outings to drive brand recognition and familiarity.​"
"I wish the APs had the ability to enter in notes about a specific AP."
"They need to work on reducing prices as they are currently on the higher side."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"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 renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"The price is reasonable."
"I would rate the cost as an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"The system was very good, but we needed to upgrade in order to adapt for our needs, and doing so with Aruba would have been more expensive. ​"
"I think they should lower their prices."
"I think it would be better if they lowered the price."
"Aruba Wireless is the best for the price. Aruba Wireless is the least expensive, the second is Huawei, and the most expensive is Cisco."
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
