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 most useful feature is how the product integrates with the Microsoft directory in the cloud."
"The security is very good."
"The wireless security solution is the most valuable feature of ExtremeWireless."
"The product's price is competitive. It is an impressive and reliable product."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The monitoring system is integrated with AI features."
"ExtremeWireless has good performance."
"The customer service and support provided by Extreme are excellent."
"Built-in guest analytics and advanced guest portal features allow our customers to create a guest experience which is typically only available with complex and expensive third-party software."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"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."
"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."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
 

Cons

"The ExtremeWireless WiNG Access Point on-premise is not as good as the cloud and many of my customers are switching. It is easier for my clients to manage everything from the cloud. I currently use a model of the controller that does not support any cloud functionality."
"I experienced issues during firmware upgrades, as some devices required a physical restart, which affects system stability."
"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 troubleshooting feature for the cloud version is challenging."
"There are concerns regarding the stability of ExtremeWireless. It could be an area of improvement, especially when compared to previous solutions such as Motorola before their acquisition."
"The product must be provided at a cheaper price."
"The user interface of ExtremeWireless could be better. It is not user-friendly."
"ExtremeWireless should fix some general bugs and make the user interface more user-friendly."
"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”."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"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."
"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 setup was complex."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well and we currently are only paying for a license for maintenance."
"I rate the price of Extreme Wireless a three out of five."
"The price of the solution overall is expensive. Additionally, the controller and license are expensive. We pay for an annual subscription."
"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."
"It's not as expensive as some and is scalable to our needs."
"The license cost per AP is about $150 USD."
"We pay approximately $30,000 per year."
"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."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
