Strong performance supports network team effectively but guest access compatibility needs improvement
We connect the network using Aruba Wireless. We connect our office network, and we use it primarily within our network team Aruba Wireless has many features, especially their state-of-the-art controller, which can be connected to the cloud. They also have an unlimited lifetime warranty, which is…

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

"For my organization, the most critical feature of Aruba Wireless is guest management."
"One advantage is the built-in Zigbee-based IoT functionality. You don't need an additional dongle to enable that option."
"The functionality is very high and we can properly meet the clients' requirements."
"If we really want to know where a specific user is connected, it gives us the ability to see that and how that user is actually receiving. We can know the speed and their IP, their MAC address and, most of the time, how much bandwidth they're using per day."
"The most valuable functions in Aruba Wireless are the AI-powered performance, which uses AI and machine learning to automatically detect any Wi-Fi issues and fix them, as well as managing all access points from a centralized single point, along with high speed and better performance."
"The most valuable feature is the client match."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is the controller. It is easy to use."
"The Aruba Central portal is a good interface that helps us monitor the wireless devices extensively. Furthermore, the access points we use, mainly API nine zero five, are working well."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The solution is very stable."
"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 cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"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."
 

Cons

"There were some settings which were confusing and unlabeled when trying to use the online help with the newer firmware.​"
"A lot of the access point commands are in the command line interface, versus being in the GUI."
"The price could be better. In the next release, I would like to have more analytics features."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"An area of this product that could use improvement would be the troubleshooting. At times I had to engage Aruba Support which ran some pretty complicated troubleshooting commands. I would not have been able to do with existing CLI documentation."
"I believe it would benefit from more reporting, other than just a dashboard. It needs some type of report builder so you can have PDFs to show upper management what is going on in the wireless network."
"Configuration could be made easier with more bandwidth than they offer at the moment."
"Initial setup was complex."
"The setup was complex."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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 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."
"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."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"The price of Aruba Wireless is fairly reasonable. It was within our budget."
"The price point is pretty high compared to Ubiquiti and other equipment."
"The access points are more cost-effective over some other providers, both in cost per AP and the option of a controller-less environment."
"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.​"
"Pricing is competitive. Licensing is needed to maintain access to the latest firmware, which wasn't made clear originally when we started with Arbua (or things changed, I'm not sure which). I would just say, make sure you budget for it."
"The price of Aruba Wireless should be cheaper."
"If you compare it to other solutions then it's reasonably priced."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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 price of the solution is too high for our country."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
