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

"Aruba Wireless is easily scaled between a lot of devices and a lot of endpoints. When we decided to use it as our solution, we had planned to use it exactly for its ability to scale."
"Denies inter-user traffic: It easily blocks traffic between users."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise.​"
"Aruba Wireless has many features, especially their state-of-the-art controller, which can be connected to the cloud."
"The solution is stable."
"It has very flexible features."
"Clearpass solution from Aruba."
"The coverage, concurrent user life, and visualization are the most valuable features of these solutions."
"The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
"The initial setup was easy."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
"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."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
 

Cons

"Improvements to the GUI, such as being able to search in the Mobility Master, would be nice."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"My biggest issue is the logging. It is hard to read when troubleshooting issues."
"Better integration between the controller and the ClearPass portal would be a nice change."
"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."
"Aruba is missing some features that are available in other solutions, such as the email notifications."
"Some model of APs went bad over time."
"We're using the Aruba Sensor, but sometimes the sensor isn't talking to AirWave or the AP."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"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."
"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."
"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 implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Aruba Wireless could improve. It is expensive. However, I am able to reduce my costs because I do not use all the features in the controller, such as the AD integration and other enterprise features."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is fairly reasonable. It was within our budget."
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"The price of Aruba Wireless should be cheaper."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"Aruba Wireless is the best for the price. Aruba Wireless is the least expensive, the second is Huawei, and the most expensive is Cisco."
"I think it would be better if they lowered the price."
"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
