Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The simplicity is great.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system.""The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network. Additionally, when there is an update on the APs they are able to reboot quickly reducing downtime. Other solutions have a longer downtime when updates are done.""Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance.""The solution is very secure."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"The product's initial setup phase was easy, especially with FortiGate or your FortiManager in place.""If we have FortiClient installed on multiple devices, it is seamless to connect with FortiAP. It supports passwordless authentication as well. That is a great thing about it.""I like FortiAP's performance and stability. The reporting is also quite good.""The most valuable aspect of Fortinet FortiAP is the support.""FortiAP's integration using SSID configuration for the input/output makes deploying permission rules easier.""The pricing is reasonable for what it offers.""We really don't need to call technical support. Any time we have had to call, they've been great."

More FortiAP Pros →

"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 stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues.""Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless.""Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System).""The initial setup was easy.""We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be.""The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​""Initial setup was straightforward."

Cons
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems.""The solution is expensive.""Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process.""The price could be better.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The wireless functionality is not the best.""Technical support is a pain. Fortinet has to get its act together. If you don't pay for premium service, you will have issues.""FortiAP is very good in an indoor environment, but we are struggling with the outdoor environment.""FortiAP could be a little cheaper.""The security integration between the network and firewall has room for improvement.""I would like to have automation capabilities that would help us reduce the configuration steps.""The product fails to offer default access points to deal with the areas revolving around configurations."

More FortiAP Cons →

"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching.""The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world.""The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​""The setup was complex.""The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco.""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.""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."""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."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay maybe 1000 SEK per year, per access point."
  • "Juniper Wireless AP's price is a little more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
  • "The pricing is something Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) can work on. The pricing is very high compared to the competition."
  • "The pricing is too high."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "I rate Juniper Mist's pricing a ten out of ten since it is expensive."
  • "I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
  • "The pricing is fair."
  • More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I would rate FortiAP a six."
  • "FortiAP is more expensive than some other options."
  • "Fortinet FortiAP offers a more cost-effective solution compared to Palo Alto and Check Point."
  • "The devices under Fortinet are not expensive. The solution's licensing part is expensive."
  • "If I compare it with the other enterprise products, the price is good."
  • More FortiAP Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "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."
  • "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 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."
  • "The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
  • "In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
  • "We have a term that is renewed every three years."
