Strong performance supports network team effectively but guest access compatibility needs improvement
We connect the network using Aruba Wireless. We connect our office network, and we use it primarily within our network team Aruba Wireless has many features, especially their state-of-the-art controller, which can be connected to the cloud. They also have an unlimited lifetime warranty, which is…

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

"The fact that Aruba Wireless has a virtual controller onboard the internet access points makes it cheaper than other solutions."
"The support for both on-premises and cloud deployments has proven to be very effective."
"It provides excellent performance and security through the use of available features and policies, reducing the reliance on external firewall configurations while ensuring a secure and reliable network environment."
"The virtual controller has options for updating and remotely restarting any AP from one controller panel."
"With Aruba Instant, we can use the access points independently, allowing us to position them in many places."
"I can have a clear picture of what's happening in my Wi-Fi cellular networking environment."
"It helps the user to have a better vision of what is happening in their network."
"​Support through third party vendors or direct from HPE has been easy to manage. They are very responsive.​"
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"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."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
 

Cons

"The solution is now taking eight to 12 months to deliver the product."
"The stability and management could be improved."
"Customer service really needs to be improved. If the customer support was better, I would recommend it to others more than I do now. Considering that you have to pay yearly for support, I expect a higher level of support."
"Aruba Wireless is a little bit complex to use and operate."
"The certification for licensing could be better."
"The new 8400 failed at Lab, plus its integration with Aruba Central."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"They could work on energy consumption as this equipment needs a lot of energy."
"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 user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"Compared to other OEMs, Mojo Networks or Arista faces a little bit of coverage issues. So, if we put the same dBm, the power of the other OEMs indicates much more extensive coverage compared to Mojo or Arista."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"The setup was complex."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is very competitive."
"Aruba is less expensive than Cisco."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"Aruba is comparable to competing solutions when it comes to price."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten"
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"My main concern about this product is the price. The cost is causing me to look at other vendors and competing products."
"The system was very good, but we needed to upgrade in order to adapt for our needs, and doing so with Aruba would have been more expensive. ​"
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
"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 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."
