Wireless network has supported long-term reliable access and simplifies RF optimization
I have experience with Cisco products and the Cisco brand. The product is mainly a hardware product. Regarding the software part, I don't have a lot of experience. Aruba Wireless was not too difficult to set up. When compared with other products such as Cisco, they also have products with wireless controllers, and it's similar to that. I think it should be recommended for both bigger and smaller companies based on the feedback and our experience. I believe there should be AI functions that might help us in some cases of cybersecurity matters, detecting threats regarding security would be better with AI. For this role, I have more than twenty years of experience. I would rate Aruba Wireless eight out of ten overall.

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

"We sell the solution and we do due to the fact that we think it's the best solution overall."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise.​"
"We have had no issues deploying the access points, and look forward to years of service from these products, which is a strength that we are seeing."
"New users will get a lot of benefits from Aruba."
"We like the centralized configuration and monitoring."
"After evaluation, Aruba Wireless was considered best for large numbers of users like this."
"We've used Meru and Cisco, but Aruba's proven to be the best."
"The solution is well designed so you can easily integrate it in an infrastructure network."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
"The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
"The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at, and in some cases, with some of the bigger names, this product was even close to half the price."
"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."
"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 technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"Arista Wifi (Mojo) is highly scalable with a single pane of glass for management, and its troubleshooting capabilities and deep insights are praiseworthy, which together reduce management efforts and help you achieve a great ROI."
 

Cons

"If you want a centralized management system that is able to manage all your networking devices such as the wireless, the switch, the routers, and the firewall, then Aruba may not be the one, because Aruba doesn't do firewalls."
"What needs improvement in Aruba Wireless is its access point, in particular, it should have more flexibility. Aruba Wireless has Campus AP, Instant AP, and Unified AP, but it would be better if the product has a generic access point that you can manage over the cloud, on-premise, etc. Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is scalability. In terms of what additional features I'd like to see in the product, I'm unsure if it's already on the roadmap, but if possible, it would be good to have an SD-WAN functionality on the AP in Aruba Wireless."
"Our customers ask for a security portfolio, which the tool doesn't have."
"I wish the APs had the ability to enter in notes about a specific AP."
"The price could be better. In the next release, I would like to have more analytics features."
"A lot of the access point commands are in the command line interface, versus being in the GUI."
"The price could be better. Competitors offer more features for a similar cost."
"We have an issue with the integration of Aruba Wireless with our LDAP servers."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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."
"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.""
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"Besides paying for the APs, you need to pay a license each year for their use. Therefore, watch out for that and do the best you can to keep costs down.​"
"I think they should lower their prices."
"Get multiple bids/quotes, and talk to the representatives about the limitations of the product; pretty standard."
"Aruba Wireless is the best for the price. Aruba Wireless is the least expensive, the second is Huawei, and the most expensive is Cisco."
"Licensing is a one time purchase (only the cloud license has to be renewed, which is worth trying out).​"
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
