Featured Reviews

JayPrajapati - PeerSpot reviewer
Room for improvement in customer support as overall satisfaction remains low
We earlier expected that Fortinet FortiAP could be managed through the cloud, which would be very good, but nowadays, FortiNet is providing FortiAPs with cloud management also. That requirement has been covered. Currently, I cannot see any areas for improvement because it fulfills my requirements, and I can do everything I need with it.
Robert Wambani - PeerSpot reviewer
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 solution supports recent security components like encryption or hashing algorithms. We can control the APs from FortiGate Firewalls and integrate those APs into FortiGate. You don't have to purchase a separate controller for it."
"Fortinet FortiAPs are useful for small to medium-scale companies where there are budget concerns."
"The setup was straightforward."
"I would give FortiAP a rating of ten out of ten so far."
"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."
"We really don't need to call technical support. Any time we have had to call, they've been great."
"The stability of the solution is very high."
"The product's deployment phase is very easy since its documentation part is available in the public domain."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"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."
"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 technical support for the solution is very helpful."
 

Cons

"There could be constraints where a product can't be scaled further without purchasing a new model."
"The security integration between the network and firewall has room for improvement."
"FortiAP could be a little cheaper."
"The wireless functionality is not the best."
"FortiAP is very good in an indoor environment, but we are struggling with the outdoor environment."
"The improvement factor could be in APs. Also, it could have a control, like MAC address."
"There is nothing that particularly comes to mind for improvement."
"I would like to have automation capabilities that would help us reduce the configuration steps."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​"
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"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 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If I compare it with the other enterprise products, the price is good."
"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I would rate FortiAP a six."
"We purchased perpetual licensing, and additional costs may vary depending on the services acquired from Fortinet."
"The devices under Fortinet are not expensive. The solution's licensing part is expensive."
"Fortinet FortiAP offers a more cost-effective solution compared to Palo Alto and Check Point."
"FortiAP is more expensive than some other options."
"The product is available at a very comfortable price for my company compared to the other products available in the market. The prices of products from Meraki and Aruba are high compared to those of Fortinet."
"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."
"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 price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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 cost is a one-time fee."
"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 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."
