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

"Stability wise the product has been fairly rock solid."
"​It has improved overall IT efficiency across the board."
"Aruba Wireless has its own protocols in the controller that are managed by the firewall of our company."
"The solution is secure."
"Aruba is outstanding, especially when it comes to the hospitality sectors.​"
"We don't need to visit each AP locations for a code upgrade or troubleshooting."
"Its graphical user interface is designed to be user-friendly, making work more efficient."
"When support is needed, the Aruba engineers are normally quick to respond to problems."
"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."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
"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."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
 

Cons

"The support should be faster."
"Sometimes the configuration is difficult."
"The user interface could be improved in Aruba Wireless. This would make the setup easier."
"Currently, the stability of the code is the basic underlying problem for us. They had an 8.6 release that came out two weeks ago, but we had to migrate twice because the code wasn't stable. We can't get things to work the same way. Version 8 was a big change for them. They made a change so that it is forced to be a managed hierarchical system. It means that you make changes at the top, and it pushes them downstream. There are a lot of problems with the 8.6 version code. I ran into four bugs in one week and was informed that we should just move onto the next one because all of those fixes have taken place. The feedback loop for fixes is not always really relayed back to you. I don't have a lot of strong things to say about version 8.6. When we had version 6, the controller was pretty much rock solid. We had no problems. We made a heavy investment to migrate a lot of stuff to take advantage of things like WPA3, Wi-Fi 6, and all that kind of stuff, and we haven't been able to turn those features on because we are not confident that they are going to work just yet. So, right now, we're still very much stumbling through the version 8.6 code and just trying to make sure that it is safe before we turn on some of those features. In terms of the marketplace, they are one of the top three leaders. In some respects, one of the things that they focus on is wireless. Therefore, there are some things that should be beyond reproach, as far as I'm concerned. In terms of the stability of the code, there are always going to be bugs, but the core stability of the code needs to be there. When it is not stable, that's a real problem for me because you lose a lot of confidence in the products."
"The solution is now taking eight to 12 months to deliver the product."
"I believe that Aruba's support could be improved."
"Every month Aruba has new firmware. I don't know if it's good or bad but it's not good in terms of production. We can't upgrade our firmware every month, especially an enterprise company, because if we upgrade our firmware based on the latest firmware that Aruba has, that firmware is not stable. They're not 100 percent sure about it."
"Because it's cloud-based, it takes time for the floor maps and the heat map to load."
"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 distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"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 user interface could use some improvement, and Mojo is working on it."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is reasonable."
"Aruba Wireless is very attractive cost-wise."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is fairly reasonable. It was within our budget."
"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"It's not expensive. That is the reason we switched to Aruba."
"The price is low. There is an additional cost for maintenance."
"Cisco is more expensive than Aruba or Juniper."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
