Pros
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices.""With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network.

Other solutions have a longer downtime when updates are done.""The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."

"I have a very good experience with the solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The AI deployment process involves adding access points and placing them in the designated area.

It has improved network performance.""Mist AI and Cloud have definitely improved the functioning of our organization. The access to the Internet, including its speed and reliability, has significantly improved.""AI is the most valuable feature.""The triangulation feature can be used to determine where a person is in relation to the access point.""Natural language patching is an important feature.""It's really easy to provision and support.

Cons
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""The pricing is very high in the Indian market.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network.""The solution is expensive."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The solution doesn't have hotspots. Users can't set it up so that visitors can log in via Facebook or social media as they can at, for example, airports. D-Link should include hotspots that offer integration with social media. That way, visitors don't need to be asking people for passwords. They can just use Facebook.""The tool's technical support can get difficult sometimes. We got a technician only after complaining for 10-15 days. The tool's technicians need to be made available everywhere.""Its interface and support system need much improvement. Sometimes, when we use the interface to reset the password and configure SSIDs, or some other changes, the "Save" option does not show and we have to go to some internal setting and then we can "save" the setting. The “Save” option should be in front of or below of the settings.""The solution's performance could be improved.""The cloud managed solution needs improvement, and they should focus on the SD-WAN segment with regard to integration.""The stability could be a bit better.""Sometimes we configure the SSID with a password but the same AP shows two WiFi connections with the same SSID name (one is protected by a password and another one give access without a password).""D-Link Wireless’s stability needs improvement."

More D-Link Wireless Cons →

"There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points.""The user experience should be improved. It's not user-friendly.""Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors.""Sometimes it takes a lot of time for the access point to connect with the cloud.""The solution doesn't provide mail notifications currently.""It would be beneficial to have support for the Chinese language.""If there's one thing I'd like to change, it's the pricing. They are quite expensive, but honestly, it's justified by the value they provide. However, for a simple Wi-Fi connectivity with basic security needs, there are alternatives in the market that offer comparable features at a more budget-friendly price.""The solution lacks documentation."

    Overview

    Juniper Wireless Access Points work in conjunction with Juniper Mist Cloud Services and Mist AI to deliver premier wireless access capabilities. The Juniper Mist Edge extends microservices to the campus to bring agility and scale while enabling new applications at the edge.

    D-Link Wireless offers a wide range of robust wireless Access Points (APs) operating in both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, supporting the latest wireless standards including 802.11ac and 802.11n. These access points can be managed independently as standalone devices, or collectively by using Central Wi-Fi Manager, a free centralized controller software that can be installed on a Windows server or PC.

    Mist AI uses a combination of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science techniques to optimize user experiences and simplify operations across the wireless access, wired access, and SD-WAN domains.

    Data is ingested from numerous sources, including Juniper Mist Access Points, Switches, Session Smart Routers, and Firewalls for end-to-end insight into user experiences. These devices work in concert with Mist AI to optimize user experiences from client-to-cloud, including automated event correlation, root cause identification, Self-Driving Network™ operations, network assurance, proactive anomaly detection, and more.

    Juniper also leverages Mist AI for next-generation customer support. It is the foundational element behind Marvis, the industry’s first AI-driven Virtual Network Assistant, which provides extensive insight and guidance to IT staff via a natural language conversational interface.

    With Mist AI, operators save time and money with faster problem resolution and fewer onsite visits. Users benefit from a network infrastructure that is more predictable, reliable, and measurable.
