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

"Its manageability of APs is the most valuable feature: ease of adding APs and the ability to configure the APs on the fly. Also, their support engineers are great to work with."
"Aruba Wireless has its own protocols in the controller that are managed by the firewall of our company."
"Aruba Wireless is stable and we plan to continue using it in the future."
"I do not need to buy a controller for the access point since the Aruba Access Point has a built-in virtual controller."
"The stability is the best. It's very reliable."
"Ability for a student or teacher to be able to roam freely from classroom to classroom, no matter the floor, without dropping a signal."
"Scalability has been one of the easiest aspects of the Aruba Instant product line. As long as the models are compatible, you can simply connect it to your network and it will learn the settings from the other APs on the network and join the AP network."
"The feature I found most valuable to customers in Aruba Wireless is not a technical feature. It's more of its image, trademark, or brand as the product is very well-known in the market, and that's a good point to offer to customers. My customers just ask about the basic features of the product, and usually, when asking about Aruba products, customers don't pay too much attention to any specific feature as long as the product is solid and sure, and that you can change or modify it, as what you can get from Aruba Wireless."
"The initial setup was easy."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"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 solution is very stable."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"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."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a faster web interface in the controller and more troubleshooting tools, including real-time troubleshooting tools."
"The dashboards that represent the network access control in Aruba Wireless could improve."
"An area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is creating a DMZ. Without Aruba ClearPass, you need to allow guess access directly via the internet, which means you need to implement the security in between, so this is what I'd like Aruba to improve in the product."
"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."
"I believe that Aruba's support could be improved."
"Lacks a heat map analysis and a cloud-based wireless controller."
"A lot of the access point commands are in the command line interface, versus being in the GUI."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"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 solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fair and similar to other products."
"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"Pricing is very competitive."
"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."
"Aruba Wireless is the best for the price. Aruba Wireless is the least expensive, the second is Huawei, and the most expensive is Cisco."
"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"My main concern about this product is the price. The cost is causing me to look at other vendors and competing products."
"The price is low. There is an additional cost for maintenance."
"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."
"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."
"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 cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"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."
"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."
