We manage complex networks with seamless guest and user access while ensuring device authorization
I use enterprise connections where users need to be authorized against radius servers. This feature is common across various products, including ExtremeWireless. Generally, the network management is valuable to me. However, I am unsure how the security architecture enhances our network protection as we typically use the latest firmware for access points. Nonetheless, we had some troubles with roaming, requiring me to install specific firmware to avoid issues.

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 valuable feature is stability."
"ExtremeWireless provides us with enterprise-level authentication methods at an excellent cost. It supports all the latest authentication methods. Another advantage is the built-in DHCP server. We don't need third-party DHCP servers to get the IPF."
"I like Cloud IQ, ExtremeWireless' cloud controller and analytics platform. It's full of information, easy to use, and provides excellent visibility into my network."
"The cloud-based management system is valuable."
"This solution scales very well; we have not yet had problems scaling up to the number of access points that are needed, and our customers are a mix of medium-sized and enterprise-level businesses."
"The most valuable feature is the cloud-managed aspect."
"ExtremeWireless is a flexible solution."
"The technical support from Extreme Networks is perfect."
"At certain points, there are hardware updates and they send notifications before they do the updates."
"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 cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"In summary, there is very little that can be improved with this product."
 

Cons

"The user interface of ExtremeWireless could be better. It is not user-friendly."
"They could provide different product models. Additionally, there could be a feature to manage devices."
"There is some delay in firmware upgrades for access points. When there is a problem with the firmware of one access point, the correction might be too late."
"The cost of this product is also somewhat on the higher side as compared to the other devices."
"Many companies prefer Aruba over ExtremeWireless, possibly due to Aruba's broader range of products or their thorough approach to understanding customer needs."
"The troubleshooting feature for the cloud version is challenging."
"The performance of the access points could be improved. ExtremeWireless coverage and signal stability could be enhanced to match the level of Ruckus Wireless and other vendors."
"ExtremeWireless should fix some general bugs and make the user interface more user-friendly."
"The setup was complex."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"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."
"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”."
"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 product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's pricing a three or four out of ten."
"The solution is priced well and we currently are only paying for a license for maintenance."
"Our access points device is at its end of life. I can buy one more and then I must buy a new device, but if it is a new device it will not support the old virtual appliance. I would need to upgrade our virtual appliance to the next version or build a new virtual appliance with new devices, and it's not good for us. The overall licensing subscription could be better."
"The purchase of 350 access points cost approximately $250,000 USD."
"The price of the solution overall is expensive. Additionally, the controller and license are expensive. We pay for an annual subscription."
"We pay approximately $30,000 per year."
"The solution has a yearly subscription, and we have to pay additional costs for technical support."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
