Enhanced employee access with effective wireless monitoring and seamless roaming
Our use case for ExtremeWireless is to allow our employees to access the company systems The monitoring systems in ExtremeWireless have been very effective, and they are cheaper than other products. It provides better monitoring logs and detailed logs compared to Cisco Wireless. The most…

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 wireless security solution is the most valuable feature of ExtremeWireless."
"The solution is easy to use and manage. Overall it is very simple to understand and users do not know it is a cloud solution."
"ExtremeWireless is known for its strong security engine, Air Defense, which provides necessary wireless security assistance to many of my customers."
"Based on my experience, I would recommend ExtremeWireless to others."
"The most valuable features of ExtremeWireless include the management through the one dashboard management with ActionCloud IQ, integrated with Site Engine."
"The central control is valuable."
"It's reliable and works well. It's pretty stable."
"The cloud-based solution allows for easy management and monitoring of traffic and congestion."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
"Their Cognitive WiFi analytics (Mojo Aware) is the biggest feature on their dashboard. It helps us know where the problem, so we don't have to spend time with the customer diagnosing it."
"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 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 current product line is very high-level and is well suited for enterprise-level organizations, but they need a more cost-effective solution for smaller businesses."
"The main area for improvement is the company's local visibility."
"The reports could prove in ExtremeWireless. However, we are in the early stages of use and we might be able to configure them better."
"The solution must include integrated IoT solutions on their wireless APs."
"In the next release, I would like to see more security features."
"It is a subscription model, so it is maybe a bit pricey."
"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."
"The troubleshooting feature for the cloud version is challenging."
"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."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"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."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay approximately $30,000 per year."
"The solution is priced well and we currently are only paying for a license for maintenance."
"Extreme isn't the most expensive, but it's not a low-cost solution, and because there are no big volumes, you don't receive significant discounts, making the final price higher."
"The purchase of 350 access points cost approximately $250,000 USD."
"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."
"It's not as expensive as some and is scalable to our needs."
"ExtremeWireless is subscription-based for both cloud and on-prem solutions, and it's quite expensive."
"I rate the price of Extreme Wireless a three out of five."
"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."
"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."
"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 license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
