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

"We had a lot of downtime with Aerohive, but after shifting to Aruba, we haven't seen any downtime and we've gone two years without interruptions to critical services like Zoom calls and email."
"After evaluation, Aruba Wireless was considered best for large numbers of users like this."
"The Wireless integration with ClearPass Policy Manager to give a complete BYOD solution is absolutely the key to today's business requirements."
"HA: Apps failover without reboot."
"With Aruba Wireless you can scale to 10,000 IPs; it's very scalable and we use it with thousands of internal users in our office and thousands of people connected around the globe without requiring extra staff to maintain the installation."
"The initial setup was very simple."
"Users have been very pleased with the solution as it offers such a high-speed connection."
"Aruba is outstanding, especially when it comes to the hospitality sectors.​"
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The security is a valuable feature."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"The solution is very stable."
"In summary, there is very little that can be improved with this product."
 

Cons

"An area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is creating a DMZ. Without Aruba ClearPass, you need to allow guess access directly via the internet, which means you need to implement the security in between, so this is what I'd like Aruba to improve in the product."
"​Some additional reporting features about the clients would be nice when not combined with the AirWave management package.​"
"It could always be improved to be a better risk-related investment."
"What I would like to have with these kinds of devices is the most enhanced security. For example, if I could apply security from wireless devices, that would be great. I would also like more enhanced reports on user adoption, who is getting what bandwidth."
"The solution could be improved on the security side."
"The solution needs to add features and enhance security."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"Sometimes you are not able to get an engineer on the phone on first call."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"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."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"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."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"​Price is fairly expensive, however it is worth it. If the “master” fails, another AP can take over the role.​"
"When you look at the price it is a higher price than Cisco."
"Licensing is a one time purchase (only the cloud license has to be renewed, which is worth trying out).​"
"Aruba is comparable to competing solutions when it comes to price."
"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 price of Aruba Wireless is expensive."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
"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."
"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 license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
