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

"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 solution is very complete, the portal has been very helpful for us, it's easy to set up, we have found the product to be stable, and it's scalable."
"Aruba Wireless is stable."
"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 most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is application monitoring."
"In our hospital lobby, we have on average 700 clients trying to connect at the same time, and using the software, we've been able to make sure that everyone's able to connect."
"The solution has been helpful in improving the way our company functions."
"Aruba Central."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"The initial setup was easy."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
"At certain points, there are hardware updates and they send notifications before they do the updates."
"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 configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
 

Cons

"The latest design of their APs removes the console port and requires purchasing an expensive proprietary cable just to access the console."
"I don't like how the traffic comes out of the controller. Users connect to the wireless APs and all the traffic converges to the controller and then back out again."
"Every month Aruba has new firmware. I don't know if it's good or bad but it's not good in terms of production. We can't upgrade our firmware every month, especially an enterprise company, because if we upgrade our firmware based on the latest firmware that Aruba has, that firmware is not stable. They're not 100 percent sure about it."
"Our customers ask for a security portfolio, which the tool doesn't have."
"Our clients complained about the coverage. Their access points should be able to cover 50 meters, but Aruba was only covering 25 to 30 meters, max."
"The Aruba Central cloud portal needs a lot of work. It is complicated to navigate."
"Aruba is missing some features that are available in other solutions, such as the email notifications. It's a bit complex to configure the notification part. Mainly I'm talking about the rogue WiFi detection. This email notification is crucial for us, but it isn't possible to configure with the built-in software. You need something else, like an external system log collector or another Aruba software. These notifications are essential in hospitality for PCI compliance. My colleagues in famous luxury hotel chains need that report."
"Aruba Wireless is a good product, but it still has some issues, especially at the beginning, where there's inconsistent syncing between the cloud and the APs. Sometimes, there's also a little lag when accessing the query."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"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.""
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"Both 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"I am aiding in transitioning my organization to a different wireless solution due to the cost. 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.​"
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"The pricing is fair and similar to other products."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is expensive."
"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 comparable to competing solutions when it comes to price."
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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 cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"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 license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
