Experience seamless connectivity with top-notch roaming capabilities
The Aruba Wireless solution has excellent roaming capabilities, ensuring seamless connectivity. Once installed, Aruba Wireless works robustly without overheating issues. This is particularly effective compared to other products I've used, like FortiMonitor and FortiAPs, which sometimes heat up. I am very satisfied with the roaming feature, as it ensures connectivity when moving from one location to another. The product's stability, after setting it up, adds to its value.

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

"Aruba is easier than Juniper."
"It provides superior WiFi access and RF management."
"Aruba Wireless offers a good user experience."
"The solution provides a clear path to instant wireless."
"What I like best about Aruba Wireless is that it doesn't need a controller. The product also has a GUI that's easy to navigate."
"The stability of Aruba Wireless has been good."
"With the central management system, I'm able to access each device. I can configure one device and then it provisions all the other devices with the same configuration, rather than my having to configure them one by one."
"There is no problem with downtime."
"The initial setup was easy."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"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."
"The solution is very stable."
"We have found Mojo to be critical for us because of its patented security and its wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS). It is unique in the market."
 

Cons

"The latest design of their APs removes the console port and requires purchasing an expensive proprietary cable just to access the console."
"The bad things about the product are the price, the information about the product, and the time it takes to deliver the product."
"The Help option within the GUI needs to be improved."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"There needs to be better visibility on the day-to-day monitoring."
"Better integration with equipment from other vendors would ease the deployment process in some cases."
"The ceiling grid mount clips have room for improvement. ​"
"They need to increase the number of routers on the controller."
"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."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"Further expanding the API and access to even more diagnostics, as I have found a few limitations when I am dealing with them right now."
"Needs greater simplicity in the management portal. Currently, the Mojo portal presents different “apps” to configure the devices, create splash pages, configure security settings, and monitor the network. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The setup was complex."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of pricing, the pricing for Aruba Wireless is not bad for large-sized companies, but for medium-sized companies, it's on the higher end, but because Aruba has a good company image, medium-sized companies still go with Aruba Wireless."
"The support pricing for Juniper Mist is higher than Aruba."
"The price is reasonable."
"Partner had been using Cisco. They switched to Aruba, because of price and functionality, also with an option for adding a SW, like AirWave, Meridian, ClearPass, and Central."
"The price of Aruba Wireless could improve. It is expensive. However, I am able to reduce my costs because I do not use all the features in the controller, such as the AD integration and other enterprise features."
"Aruba Wireless is the best for the price. Aruba Wireless is the least expensive, the second is Huawei, and the most expensive is Cisco."
"​AP signal strength and price. I know this is a competitive market, but APs should not cost so much if they do not cover a large area. ​"
"Pricing support has always been cost-effective."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
"Since they have only the cloud and on-premises platform, the price looks good compared to the other OEMs like Cisco and Ruckus. For one of the Wi-Fi 6 access points for five years, they might be charging 20,000 to 25,000 INR."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"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."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
