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

"Denies inter-user traffic: It easily blocks traffic between users."
"It has very flexible features."
"Role assignment: Each user is assigned a different role based on the radius attributes returned by ClearPass."
"The user interface is great."
"Although there are other solutions available and some with a lower initial cost, they don't offer the same level of integration with IoT as this solution without having to add additional hardware, which ends up costing more."
"The initial setup was very simple."
"The solution is well designed so you can easily integrate it in an infrastructure network."
"The stability of Aruba Wireless has been good."
"We have found Mojo to be critical for us because of its patented security and its wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS). It is unique in the market."
"The initial setup was easy."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"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 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."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be better."
"The Help option within the GUI needs to be improved."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"There has been a recent decrease in the level of support."
"There were some settings which were confusing and unlabeled when trying to use the online help with the newer firmware.​"
"We have had issues with the availability of the equipment."
"The speed could be better. I heard that Aruba is trying to shape the speed inside the wireless controller, but that has not been adopted yet. If they put some kind of mechanism inside the wireless controller for the speed such that, "Okay, this many users will have 20 by 20 - 20 in the upload, 20 in the download. Just this many users. And this many users will have that type of speed." I think it would be very good if they actually bring that functionality inside the wireless controller."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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.""
"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."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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. ​"
"The balance between quality and price is there, but the cost is still high."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is expensive."
"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"The price is low. There is an additional cost for maintenance."
"​We will be buying the ClearPass solution, which will be pricey. However, in the trial version, it has even more tools to manage a busy network.​"
"Cisco is more expensive than Aruba or Juniper."
"The pricing has increased and it was always more costly than some of the other solutions available."
"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."
"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."
"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 price of the solution is too high for our country."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
