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

"We were able to increase capacity very easily."
"The support for both on-premises and cloud deployments has proven to be very effective."
"What I like most about Aruba Wireless is its stability, functionality, and performance."
"It's a very stable system."
"The portal has been very helpful for us."
"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 solution is secure."
"Aruba is outstanding, especially when it comes to the hospitality sectors.​"
"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."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"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."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"The security is a valuable feature."
 

Cons

"I believe more security options are needed."
"Sometimes the configuration is difficult."
"The stability and management could be improved."
"The bad things about the product are the price, the information about the product, and the time it takes to deliver the product."
"MAC authentication against an external Radius server while using 802.1X. This feature will help the L2 devices to authenticate via external Radius servers."
"Lacks a heat map analysis and a cloud-based wireless controller."
"When we connect to Wi-Fi devices it could be easier because sometimes, it takes a lot of time to complete."
"Because it's cloud-based, it takes time for the floor maps and the heat map to load."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"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 renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"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 distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Aruba Wireless is expensive."
"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."
"Licencing can be surprising and needs improvement. Look into all features, what you need versus what you want, and know that nothing comes without some kind of license."
"Aruba is less expensive than Cisco."
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"We have some licenses for the solution, and we need not renew licenses. But we need to pay a hundred thousand if you want to renew our subscription and renew the hardware."
"The price point is pretty high compared to Ubiquiti and other equipment."
"Customers have to pay for perpetual licenses with Aruba controller licenses, depending on the features they are looking for."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
