Executive SummaryUpdated on Oct 31, 2024

Huawei Wireless and Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points compete in the wireless networking category. Huawei Wireless has an advantage in pricing, making it affordable for users seeking WiFi 6 systems, while Juniper Mist offers advanced AI-driven network management that appeals to businesses needing sophisticated network control.

Features: Huawei Wireless provides an affordable WiFi 6 system with efficient coverage and scalability, supporting seamless roaming and strong IoT integration. Juniper Mist is distinguished by its AI-driven network management, centralized management, and AI-based insights, catering to users who prioritize ease of troubleshooting and robust security features.

Room for Improvement: Huawei Wireless needs to enhance its cloud management, visibility controls, and technical support response times. Additionally, increasing third-party integration could be advantageous. Juniper Mist could improve its third-party integration, especially with non-Juniper products. Enhancing AI-based threat detection and addressing pricing concerns are other potential improvements.

Affordable platform with efficient analytics features

Huawei adapters have facilitated seamless integration with mobile devices, extending the LAN's reach. Additionally, including CampusInsight, a component offering analytics and visibility into wireless connectivity, has proven invaluable. This feature enables us to monitor network health and troubleshoot user-related issues efficiently. The reliability has had a positive impact on our operations. I advise others to go for Cisco if cost is not a factor. Otherwise, they can explore other options based on the availability of that OEM within the country. We have Huawei present in our country and provide all the necessary support, so we went forward with them. I rate it a nine out of ten.

Consistently manages user capacity and satisfaction with ease

I have completed over twenty projects using Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points, and I continue to see exceptional performance in the areas of user capacity, user experience, and user satisfaction. This makes Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points highly recommended if the customer's budget allows, as the hardware performance is also very good. From my perspective, the Juniper reporting logs are clear and provide necessary data, which supports better management and diagnosis.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It has all of the features that we need."

"It can scale."

"We can use an access point to broadcast multiple SSIDs, assign dynamic VLANs, and configure dynamic access control lists (ACLs)."

"Installation is easy."

"I think it's a good technology. I like that it transparently connects with LDAP. The technology has a lot of capacity for WiFi six. It provides notifications, and there are many ways to connect with fiber. There is an electrical tool, and you can put an SFP transceiver. There are also many ways to implement antennas."

"At the moment, I only have experience with the on-premise deployment of Huawei Wireless, but the cloud solution looks good on paper. It looks perfect. I can say that Huawei's cybersecurity is very good, stable, and works for long periods. My company has four devices running uptime for more than four years without stopping. I also like that the support for Huawei Wireless is swift, and support does precisely what you require, at least from the point of view of the technical engineer who communicated with Huawei support, as I'm more of a technical sales guy. Good technical support is vital to my company, partners, and customers. My company had this ongoing project with an ISP provider in Bulgaria that bought some routers. Still, the existing equipment was a completely different brand, so this provider wanted to migrate to Huawei Wireless and wanted help while migrating the existing infrastructure to Huawei, so the technical engineer assigned to raise the ticket with Huawei for checking and setting parameters correctly provided feedback about Huawei technical support being good quality-wise and TAT-wise. The technical engineer was also Cisco-certified and Juniper-certified and was not experienced with Huawei equipment. Still, he did mention that the Huawei Wireless router interface was straightforward, and even a person who's new to it would find it easy to configure. Huawei Wireless is user-friendly, which is another pro of the solution. It's easy to manage, and even the program language setting can be done with fewer commands than Juniper and Cisco equipment. Some of the features in Juniper need an external program, and the same features can be found in Huawei Wireless built-in, which I find remarkable."

"The solution offers very good value for money."

"Huawei Wireless's most valuable feature is smart antenna, a combination of informative capabilities and advanced technology."

More Huawei Wireless pros

"Mist AI is a very powerful feature. Juniper is the only company that has introduced AI into networking."

"The product is quite user-friendly and easy to deploy, so one should definitely consider buying it."

"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."

"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."

"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."

"The simplicity is great."

"The solution is very secure."

"The most effective features in the Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points include the fact that it's completely cloud-managed, the Marvis AI agent, the ease of use, and the user-friendly interface, along with a plethora of features."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points pros

Cons

"I have encountered connectivity issues with the tool. I am not sure if it is due to Wi-Fi inference. I would like the solution to include some marketing analytics features like evaluation of user behavior."

"The demo program is an area for improvement in Huawei Wireless as it's hard to use. As a partner, you can use the solution for free, for thirty days, for example. On paper, everything looks fine, but you have to get permission and explain why you want to download the software, even if it's just for demo purposes. I don't get why I have to do this as a partner and still give an explanation that this would be for a demo setup. Downloading the solution isn't a click-and-install process that should go smoothly and efficiently. You have to get a lot of approvals and explain a lot, and in the end, you find out that you received the approval for one piece of software. It looks like you need additional software to use the software. My company asked for approval and received the approval three days later, but you need to install another software to use some of the features. In the past, most features were separate. Because Huawei wants a single pane of glass where all features should work with the Huawei equipment, Huawei decided to combine everything into the iMaster NCE Campus, which incorporates every other cloud solution. However, you still have to ask for approval for every piece of software, and without clear information on the features, the type of software, and the software files required, it's not so good from my point of view."

"I'd like to see some after-sales support. It's a little bit below the expectations we had."

"The scalability could be better."

"There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes."

"Price is one of the major problems of the solution, and because of this, our company's customers want to migrate to some other product from Huawei."

"Cloud integration needs to be improved."

"While I am fine with the current licensing price, I would appreciate it to be more cost-effective."

More Huawei Wireless cons

"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."

"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."

"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."

"The reporting logs require improvement in terms of clarity because it can be difficult to find specific information about network influences."

"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."

"The solution is expensive."

"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."

"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
