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

"We have been using it for two years and we are very, very satisfied with the features because there are no security problems."
"We were coming from a first-generation wireless network, and now I can use RF optimization for controllers."
"With our Aruba configuration, we have a robust, rock-solid, enterprise wireless environment, that is literally maintenance free."
"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."
"Aruba Central is a valuable feature because I can monitor access points remotely, even if I'm not in the office."
"The scalability is very good, and you can use it from SME through to enterprise companies, as it provides full coverage."
"Aruba Wireless is stable and we plan to continue using it in the future."
"We have three wireless networks: One for employee use, one for guest use, and one for our warehouse use, which uses MAC authentication. These wireless networks just simply work, they do not fail. The IAP-205 devices are very strong with great range. Very durable equipment; it always works."
"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."
"Arista Mojo Wifi has improve stability, visibility anf performance across our enterprise."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"The solution is very stable."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
"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 is pretty good."
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
 

Cons

"When I compare Aruba with Juniper Mist, Juniper is the more an AI-driven management solution. It is more of a modern solution, I think. Aruba needs to be more competitive with Juniper."
"A lot of the access point commands are in the command line interface, versus being in the GUI."
"I think the ROI is great if it is going to replace the wired environment, but if it is not going to descale the wired environment then it needs a bit of a hard sell to meet the ROI."
"It needs the ability to perform mobility device management. They should have some kind of mobility device management built into the product."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"I'm not entirely sure about deeper functionalities because almost our vendors handle that."
"Some model of APs went bad over time."
"Better integration between the controller and the ClearPass portal would be a nice change."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"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."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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 distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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 implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Aruba is less expensive than Cisco."
"Pricing support has always been cost-effective."
"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"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 Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"​Trial different solutions and compare pricing to how well they perform, their stability, how easy it is to maintain, etc."
"I would rate the cost as an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"The price is reasonable. I would rate the cost as 8 out of 10."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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."
"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."
