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

"I have not experienced any bugs, software, or hardware issues with Aruba."
"Aruba Wireless is a very good solution."
"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."
"It's a great product, easy to use, easy monitoring, and great tech support."
"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."
"From a purely wireless perspective, I think that Aruba is number one."
"The biggest selling point was the ability to create two different SSIDs to control public versus private wireless networks."
"The most valuable feature is the client match."
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
"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 configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"The solution is very stable."
"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."
"In summary, there is very little that can be improved with this product."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
 

Cons

"Automated RF optimization in Aruba Wireless is not a beneficial function."
"They should simplify the configuration flow."
"We've had some issues with stability for Mac and iOS users where we've had to disconnect."
"They need to increase the number of routers on the controller."
"I would have liked to see more manufacturer driven events and outings to drive brand recognition and familiarity.​"
"Aruba solution is not cheap."
"There is a long queue whenever we reach out to support, and we have to wait for them to answer calls. Once we get in touch with them, we have to coordinate with different teams, so our engineers struggle to understand who are the correct team members. I think support is another area where Aruba needs to improve."
"Configuration could be made easier with more bandwidth than they offer at the moment."
"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."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"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.""
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is very competitive."
"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"​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. ​"
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten"
"If you compare it to other solutions then it's reasonably priced."
"Aruba is less expensive than Cisco."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
