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

"Some of the implementations or features do work as advertised: easy deployment of APs, MAC caching, and aesthetically pleasing GUI for configuration."
"Aruba Wireless is stable and we plan to continue using it in the future."
"I haven't had any issues with it to date, and it's a pretty robust product."
"The main features of Aruba Wireless in my country is its popularity, long hardware warranty when compared to other solutions, and it integrates well with our network access control solution."
"Aruba gives me the security that I need because we have WiFi for employees and the public, and it allows me to monitor them and block them or do whatever I need to to keep them in check."
"Aruba is the easiest to install."
"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."
"We find its stability very valuable, as it has been running for the past three years with no default configuration."
"The most important feature is ease of use. We can simply take an access point and plug it in, then it is automatically configured for us."
"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."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
 

Cons

"There is so much licensing, you literally pay for every solution, add-on, or cool feature."
"Aruba’s poor performance and random upgrade issues caused too much time consuming maintenance and troubleshooting."
"Technical support needs work. It's hard to reach the right people you need to help you when you come face to face with issues."
"Customer service on the phone I would rate fairly poorly."
"The urgent areas of improvement would be customer support, better tuned default settings, and documentation."
"The network times for protocol synchronization can be improved."
"I would like to see a faster web interface in the controller and more troubleshooting tools, including real-time troubleshooting tools."
"What needs improvement in Aruba Wireless is its access point, in particular, it should have more flexibility. Aruba Wireless has Campus AP, Instant AP, and Unified AP, but it would be better if the product has a generic access point that you can manage over the cloud, on-premise, etc. Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is scalability. In terms of what additional features I'd like to see in the product, I'm unsure if it's already on the roadmap, but if possible, it would be good to have an SD-WAN functionality on the AP in Aruba Wireless."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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 user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"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”."
 

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 could be better. Competitors offer more features for a similar cost."
"In terms of pricing, the pricing for Aruba Wireless is not bad for large-sized companies, but for medium-sized companies, it's on the higher end, but because Aruba has a good company image, medium-sized companies still go with Aruba Wireless."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is reasonable."
"The product is expensive."
"A recent change is that ClearPass licensing is superb. It counts user-based instead of device-based, for BYOD on-boarding."
"​Trial different solutions and compare pricing to how well they perform, their stability, how easy it is to maintain, etc."
"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
