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

"The initial setup was very easy and intuitive."
"If your organization is looking for a solution that is solid, performance-wise, this may be perfect."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is multi-tenancy."
"​Initial setup was very straightforward. We set up the switches and APs, then took it from there. ​​"
"Aruba is outstanding, especially when it comes to the hospitality sectors.​"
"The dashboard tells us who is using most of the bandwidth, and how many APs are not in good range, or that do not actually have good security. It shows us which users are trying to hack or how many users are trying to use BitTorrent. So it gives us very good visibility into the user."
"Aruba is a very good company — very good technology-wise — and they make very useful products."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise.​"
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"Arista Mojo Wifi has improve stability, visibility anf performance across our enterprise."
"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."
"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."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"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."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The solution is very stable."
 

Cons

"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."
"When we need to escalate to a priority one case it is difficult."
"I wish the APs had the ability to enter in notes about a specific AP."
"We're using the Aruba Sensor, but sometimes the sensor isn't talking to AirWave or the AP."
"The enterprise controller. I'm planning on getting more information on that."
"Access point mounting options could be better."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"Initial setup was complex."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"The setup was complex."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"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."
"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"The product is expensive."
"We have some licenses for the solution, and we need not renew licenses. But we need to pay a hundred thousand if you want to renew our subscription and renew the hardware."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is expensive."
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
"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 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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"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."
