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

"Move valuable to us are the central management feature and the solution's performance."
"We had both Aruba ClearPass and Aruba AirWaves, and all the management features available from Aruba worked well together as a class of products."
"The initial setup is straightforward. Configure one IAP and all the rest self-configure to that one.​"
"It helps the user to have a better vision of what is happening in their network."
"HA: Apps failover without reboot."
"The most valuable features of these wireless controllers for us are the advanced security and management features."
"This is by far the best investment that we've made in a long time."
"Aruba Wireless has been straightforward to set up."
"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."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"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."
"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."
"Altogether, they are unbeatable in the market."
"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."
 

Cons

"Aruba Wireless is very expensive."
"The solution needs to add features and enhance security."
"Technical support needs work. It's hard to reach the right people you need to help you when you come face to face with issues."
"The stability is only decent."
"Improvements to the GUI, such as being able to search in the Mobility Master, would be nice."
"Aruba doesn't match some competitors in wireless signal strength. It isn't in the same class as Cisco Meraki, so I would use Cisco Meraki in situations where I need to cover a large open space. Meraki has more powerful signals going out."
"It's too pricey, to be honest."
"It needs the ability to perform mobility device management. They should have some kind of mobility device management built into the product."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"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."
"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.""
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers have to pay for perpetual licenses with Aruba controller licenses, depending on the features they are looking for."
"The access points are more cost-effective over some other providers, both in cost per AP and the option of a controller-less environment."
"Pricing is very competitive."
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"​Price is fairly expensive, however it is worth it. If the “master” fails, another AP can take over the role.​"
"The price of Aruba Wireless could improve. It is expensive. However, I am able to reduce my costs because I do not use all the features in the controller, such as the AD integration and other enterprise features."
"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.​"
"I think it would be better if they lowered the price."
"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 cost is a one-time fee."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
"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."
