Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use.""The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices.""With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""The solution is stable.""In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich.""The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"The solution is secure.""The most important feature is all about the two wavelengths, the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz, and the access points which are connected to this wireless controller.""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.""It is easy to install and deploy.""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.""The initial setup is straightforward. Configure one IAP and all the rest self-configure to that one.​""It offers an easy initial setup.""​Stability and its ability to handle more devices has been an improvement for our organization.​"

More Aruba Wireless Pros →

"It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network.""For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away.""Initial setup was straightforward.""The initial setup was easy.""Built-in guest analytics and advanced guest portal features allow our customers to create a guest experience which is typically only available with complex and expensive third-party software.""The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated.""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.""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."

More Mojo Networks Pros →

Cons
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""The price could be better.""The pricing is very high in the Indian market.""The solution is expensive.""The pricing should be made cheaper."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"They should provide usage guides and solutions to frequent problems.""We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi.""To enhance the system, more work on integration would be beneficial.""We need security features to recognize the traffic source and to apply Zero Trust security.""I wish the APs had the ability to enter in notes about a specific AP.""They should simplify the configuration flow.""Better integration between the controller and the ClearPass portal would be a nice change.""Their documentation needs to be improved. Aruba's documentation is poor."

More Aruba Wireless Cons →

"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”.""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 implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex.""My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge.""The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive.""The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call.""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.""I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay maybe 1000 SEK per year, per access point."
  • "Juniper Wireless AP's price is a little more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
  • "The pricing is something Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) can work on. The pricing is very high compared to the competition."
  • "The pricing is too high."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "I rate Juniper Mist's pricing a ten out of ten since it is expensive."
  • "I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
  • More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Partner had been using Cisco. They switched to Aruba, because of price and functionality, also with an option for adding a SW, like AirWave, Meridian, ClearPass, and Central."
  • "Pricing is very competitive."
  • "Pricing support has always been cost-effective."
  • "Licensing is a one time purchase (only the cloud license has to be renewed, which is worth trying out).​"
  • "​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.​"
  • "There is so much licensing, you literally pay for every solution, add-on, or cool feature. Compared to others, we were in the middle with pricing, but as you start to invest more into features it will get very pricey."
  • "​Trial different solutions and compare pricing to how well they perform, their stability, how easy it is to maintain, etc."
  • "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."
  • More Aruba Wireless Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "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 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."
  • "We have a term that is renewed every three years."
