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 most beneficial feature for network management is stability."
"The most valuable features are the Instant On capabilities, including the controller."
"We have not had any problems with the stability of the product."
"The most valuable feature is the client match."
"Aruba Central."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is application monitoring."
"It provides excellent performance and security through the use of available features and policies, reducing the reliance on external firewall configurations while ensuring a secure and reliable network environment."
"The most useful feature of this product is the configuration that allows us to have several areas covered with one unit."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"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 stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
 

Cons

"It could always be improved to be a better risk-related investment."
"The controllers used to include heat map functionality. This was removed in a recent release."
"The Help option within the GUI needs to be improved."
"I rate Aruba technical support six out of 10. We have a hard time connecting with them every time."
"The location-based software isn't quite there yet and we haven't been able to use it the way that works best for us."
"When you reach the limit of 100 users or have too many devices, you will experience a loss of connectivity."
"The solution's documentation could be better organized in an information portal."
"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."
"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."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The access points are more cost-effective over some other providers, both in cost per AP and the option of a controller-less environment."
"Aruba Wireless is much cheaper than our previous solution by Cisco. It is a significant saving, measured in thousands of dollars per year."
"In terms of pricing, the pricing for Aruba Wireless is not bad for large-sized companies, but for medium-sized companies, it's on the higher end, but because Aruba has a good company image, medium-sized companies still go with Aruba Wireless."
"The price could be better. Competitors offer more features for a similar cost."
"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."
"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.​"
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"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.​"
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
