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

"AirWave is a valuable feature."
"It has helped in making deployments easier."
"The overall product review rating is nine out of ten."
"We have been using Aruba Wireless for the past five years."
"It provided an easy WiFi solution for our branch offices to deploy​. We could usually have them up and running from out-of-the-box in about 10 minutes."
"The Wireless integration with ClearPass Policy Manager to give a complete BYOD solution is absolutely the key to today's business requirements."
"​As we have acquired a few companies, having the ability to have multiple RADIUS connections has helped us.​"
"I like the way it groups and manages access points."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at, and in some cases, with some of the bigger names, this product was even close to half the price."
"At certain points, there are hardware updates and they send notifications before they do the updates."
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
"It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes."
"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

"I believe that Aruba's support could be improved."
"They should simplify the configuration flow."
"They should provide usage guides and solutions to frequent problems."
"What I would like to have with these kinds of devices is the most enhanced security."
"We need to expand our network and the cost of new APs and an upgraded controller have proved to be prohibitive compared to similar solutions on the market."
"The network times for protocol synchronization can be improved."
"Aruba Wireless is a little bit complex to use and operate."
"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."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The setup was 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."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"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

"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"Besides paying for the APs, you need to pay a license each year for their use. Therefore, watch out for that and do the best you can to keep costs down.​"
"The price is reasonable."
"A recent change is that ClearPass licensing is superb. It counts user-based instead of device-based, for BYOD on-boarding."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is fairly reasonable. It was within our budget."
"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."
"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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."
"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."
"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 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."
