Reduces the number of trouble tickets and is easy to deploy and troubleshoot
Deployment is straightforward and quick. This solution uses templates that simplify configuring for many devices simultaneously. If some network devices miscontribute or have a problem in configuration, I can solve this problem without an administrator. It collects many parameters from each device, and after that, we can get good reports about working equipment and the network. With this installation process, you must first prepare configuration templates in the cloud. After that, you can easily add new devices without further configuration. Once the devices connect to the cloud, they automatically receive the configuration. It doesn't take more than one hour, depending on the network. I rate the initial setup a ten out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy.

Implementing advanced security features requires in-depth knowledge and setup
I am familiar with Juniper Mist Wired Assurance or Mist Premium Analytics, more on the security and firewall side. Currently, I need to renew my Juniper certification, so I am looking at Mist and some of the other cloud-based solutions. I am familiar with the Juniper vSRX or SRX, and I am mostly an SRX specialist. I have been using it for years and we still leverage them. The virtual SRX is primarily in the home lab, but I do actually have physical SRX. I have not tested any features such as automated network insights yet as we are still in our initial three months evaluation. Regarding configuration management, I had previously leveraged Security Director and other items that we could utilize, but it would require a relatively large environment of Juniper devices to really take advantage of it. I rate Juniper Sky Enterprise a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product greatly improved our organization in terms of making configuration, deployment, and firmware upgrades easy for multiple automated devices."
"The customer chose this solution because it helped reduce the number of trouble tickets. It’s easy to deploy and troubleshoot, as the solution uses AI to identify root issues."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist Wired Assurance is zero-touch provisioning for query edge switches. You can connect the switch directly to your edge locations and then directly onboard, similar to the Cisco Meraki solutions."
"What I find valuable with this product are the best features; if we were able to implement it to its full potential, anti-malware and the behavior-based features would add value to the environment."
 

Cons

"This cloud solution is built on microservices, and Juniper continuously adds new ones to enhance performance or introduce additional services."
"The configuration aspect of the solutions is relatively new, but I have had positive experiences. However, for more advanced tasks, such as VXLANs on the EX platform, Juniper Mist Wired Assurance may not be the best option due to certain limitations. Nonetheless, it does have a CLI override feature for specialized configurations that cannot be done through the GUI."
"The platform’s monitoring tool is not up to the mark. It is not proactive enough and lacks some capabilities. Additionally, they should work on providing integration with other vendors."
"The primary issue is ease of use in deployment. It requires significant expertise."
