Has simplified infrastructure management through on-site data and control plane termination
The most valuable features of Juniper Mist Edge include the ability to terminate the data plane and the control plane on-site for privacy purposes. For those that don't want the management of their either wireless or wired infrastructure to be done in the cloud, Juniper Mist Edge helps to solve that problem. AI-generated features in Juniper Mist Edge help to optimize network operations as AI is everything. It helps to simplify the management of infrastructure, assists in root cause analysis and identification of issues and resolution of those issues, and aids in what we call premium analytics to analyze what has gone wrong or the events on-site, providing feedback that would help to make some business-critical decisions. Anomaly detection in Juniper Mist Edge is beneficial, as when talking about AI, that's just it. Anomaly detection helps when things are not going the way they were designed or planned to work. Juniper Mist Edge also helps to detect that and assists in resolving the issue.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Juniper's technical support is highly responsive."
"Juniper Mist Edge provides better support for medium-sized businesses."
"AI-generated features in Juniper Mist Edge help to optimize network operations as AI is everything; it helps to simplify the management of infrastructure, assists in root cause analysis and identification of issues and resolution of those issues, and aids in what we call premium analytics to analyze what has gone wrong or the events on-site, providing feedback that would help to make some business-critical decisions."
"It is stable and reliable."
"Nuage Networks provides a professional solution experience; they are a large corporation developing new features all the time that are very useful."
"Version 6.0 now is expected by mid of this year which reflects a maturity I've never experienced with any other network virtualization system."
"One of the many benefits of Nuage Networks is VoIP, as it will maintain a call session even if you lose an uplink."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is network management. The customer is able to manage their network from home or we can also manage the whole customer network."
"It has good reporting and analytics, that most people can understand without too much difficulty."
 

Cons

"Juniper Mist Edge can sometimes have a delay in information updating, which could be improved."
"The one area that we're specifically looking into is their outdoor APs. The development of their outdoor APs is lagging as compared to their internal APs."
"I think there is a need to improve the virtual edition or the virtual platform of Juniper Mist Edge, as I know that it was discontinued."
"The product needs an update, particularly in price, as it deters many customers, including myself, from using it despite its convenience and effectiveness."
"I experience a lot of stability issues, so the rating is eight out of ten."
"I would like to see improvements in ensuring government compliance for Mist Edge."
"Educational materials should be available for such a mature system!"
"Security is an area that could use some work."
"The setup can be complex."
"The price of the solution could be more affordable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe we're getting some good discounts. We're paying less than $500 per AP. I don't know the annual maintenance cost."
"The price of the solution could be more affordable. Customers want to use their own cheap connection and also do not want to pay too much for services from this solution, it becomes too expensive."
"I would say, from our cost perspective, they are extremely competitive."
