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

"ExtremeWireless is a powerful solution with good integration. It works perfectly for us."
"ExtremeWireless has good performance."
"The most useful feature is how the product integrates with the Microsoft directory in the cloud."
"ExtremeWireless offers profiles, policies, and tags."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The customer service and support provided by Extreme are excellent."
"ExtremeWireless is very reliable and stable; we didn't have any problems throughout the year."
"It provides seamless connectivity if you move around."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
"If you go with Mojo, you're not going to be sorry."
"The most important feature is ease of use. We can simply take an access point and plug it in, then it is automatically configured for us."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network."
 

Cons

"The onsite controllers are not as good as the cloud controller. I would also like ExtremeWireless to add web filtering on the access point. This feature is available from other vendors but not ExtremeWireless."
"The solution should offer better support."
"The main area for improvement is the company's local visibility."
"The APs have quite a low signal compared to other brands."
"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."
"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 ability to integrate with network devices from other vendors would be helpful."
"They should develop more troubleshooting tools for system management. Additional troubleshooting tools should be created by the engineers."
"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 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 solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"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 setup was complex."
"Both further expanding the API and access to even more diagnostics, as I have found a few limitations when I am dealing with them right now."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are both paid and free licenses of the cloud environment, with only basic functionality in the free version."
"We pay approximately $30,000 per year."
"ExtremeWireless is subscription-based for both cloud and on-prem solutions, and it's quite expensive."
"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."
"ExtremeWireless isn't budget-friendly. The hardware costs around 20,000 Indian rupees. We're still using an older controller, so it doesn't require a license, unlike the newest versions of the ExtremeWireless controller."
"The solution has a yearly subscription, and we have to pay additional costs for technical support."
"The purchase of 350 access points cost approximately $250,000 USD."
"I rate the price of Extreme Wireless a three out of five."
"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."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
