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

"From a purely wireless perspective, I think that Aruba is number one."
"The Aruba Central portal is a good interface that helps us monitor the wireless devices extensively. Furthermore, the access points we use, mainly API nine zero five, are working well."
"Aruba is a very good company — very good technology-wise — and they make very useful products."
"In terms of customer experience, the Wi-Fi signal in the office is a lot better right now compared to in the past."
"What I like best about Aruba Wireless is that it doesn't need a controller. The product also has a GUI that's easy to navigate."
"It has helped in making deployments easier."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is the controller. It is easy to use."
"With the central management system, I'm able to access each device. I can configure one device and then it provisions all the other devices with the same configuration, rather than my having to configure them one by one."
"Arista Wifi (Mojo) is highly scalable with a single pane of glass for management, and its troubleshooting capabilities and deep insights are praiseworthy, which together reduce management efforts and help you achieve a great ROI."
"At certain points, there are hardware updates and they send notifications before they do the updates."
"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."
"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."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"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."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
 

Cons

"On a scale of one to five, I would give their technical support a two. It could be better."
"Support for Aruba Wireless is good, but the skill set of the support engineers and the documentation are not as robust as Cisco."
"The dashboards that represent the network access control in Aruba Wireless could improve."
"The downside is right now there is a shortage of hardware. It's hard to acquire switches and access points."
"We needed the help of network consultants to complete the setup for us."
"The price could be better. Competitors offer more features for a similar cost."
"Initial setup was complex."
"There has been a recent decrease in the level of support."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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."
"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 ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"Needs greater simplicity in the management portal. Currently, the Mojo portal presents different “apps” to configure the devices, create splash pages, configure security settings, and monitor the network. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"Licensing is a one time purchase (only the cloud license has to be renewed, which is worth trying out).​"
"Get multiple bids/quotes, and talk to the representatives about the limitations of the product; pretty standard."
"​Trial different solutions and compare pricing to how well they perform, their stability, how easy it is to maintain, etc."
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"Pricing is very competitive."
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
"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."
