We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""The solution is very secure.""The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."

"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiWLC is the overall high quality.""It's easy to set everything up during implementation."

More Fortinet FortiWLC Pros →

"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product.""Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System).""The solution is very stable.""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 most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side.""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.""It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes.""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."

Cons
"The solution is expensive.""Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process.""The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location.""It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""The price could be better."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"Fortinet FortiWLC is not simple to configure when compared to other solutions. The design could be better.""One thing that is lacking is, compared with some other brands, the signal is a bit weaker. Ruckus has much wider signal coverage."

More Fortinet FortiWLC Cons →

"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.""The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly.""The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex.""The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world.""I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching.""The setup was complex.""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."

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 →

  • "The price of Fortinet FortiWLC is high. The solution will be out of the market for us because the price is too high for the features it provides."
  • More Fortinet FortiWLC 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."
