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

"Aruba is the easiest to install."
"With Aruba Instant, we can use the access points independently, allowing us to position them in many places."
"ClearPass helps a lot with administration."
"Otherwise, it's a very good, reliable product."
"Aruba Wireless is easily scaled between a lot of devices and a lot of endpoints. When we decided to use it as our solution, we had planned to use it exactly for its ability to scale."
"It has very flexible features."
"There are a couple of valuable features of Aruba Wireless for us, with ClearPass as an authentication product and AirWave as a reporting function that allows us to do different reporting on WiFi utilization at our different campuses so I can break down different areas of the college and find out how many users are using the network at any given time and the utilization of different access points, which allows me to do capacity management."
"To be able to combine those product sets, the traditional wire line and the wireless, and then the Clearpass solution from Aruba, is what I'm most interested in; the enterprise security and to have the whole picture."
"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 is pretty good."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"We have found Mojo to be critical for us because of its patented security and its wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS). It is unique in the market."
"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."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
 

Cons

"What I'd like improved in Aruba Wireless is for it to be a full cloud solution."
"Aruba Wireless could improve the dashboard. It is not straightforward or intuitive to use and could be more user-friendly. For IT employees the dashboards are fine but when it comes to the end-user it is difficult. The Mobility Controller dashboard is not meant for non-IT employees."
"Additional troubleshooting capabilities for the ClearPass product."
"It needs the ability to perform mobility device management. They should have some kind of mobility device management built into the product."
"I think the ROI is great if it is going to replace the wired environment, but if it is not going to descale the wired environment then it needs a bit of a hard sell to meet the ROI."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"Customer service on the phone I would rate fairly poorly."
"The solution could be improved on the security side."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"The user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"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."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"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."
"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”."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"The balance between quality and price is there, but the cost is still high."
"My main concern about this product is the price. The cost is causing me to look at other vendors and competing products."
"​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."
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is higher than other products, but you'll get stability, performance, and functionality out of it. On a scale of one to five, I'm rating the price of Aruba Wireless a three."
"The price point is pretty high compared to Ubiquiti and other equipment."
"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."
"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 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 price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
