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

"I do not need to buy a controller for the access point since the Aruba Access Point has a built-in virtual controller."
"I think Aruba Wireless' Wi-Fi 6 capability is something that really makes a difference. We used to have bottlenecks. Each user has one laptop on one mobile device, so that equals 40 devices connecting to one AP. The Wi-Fi 5 series couldn't handle the traffic during peak hours, and when I say "peak hours," I mean Monday at 11 a.m. We used to see a lot of packet drops, but we haven't seen that problem at all since we moved to Wi-Fi 6."
"​The feature that I love the most is being able to broadcast different SSIDs with different protocol requirements. ​"
"​Support through third party vendors or direct from HPE has been easy to manage. They are very responsive.​"
"The biggest selling point was the ability to create two different SSIDs to control public versus private wireless networks."
"The solution is well designed so you can easily integrate it in an infrastructure network."
"I have found the most valuable features are the new Wi-Fi six technology and it also integrates with triple-A solutions. It has good bandwidth and virtual control."
"Ability for a student or teacher to be able to roam freely from classroom to classroom, no matter the floor, without dropping a signal."
"The solution is very stable."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"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."
"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."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The initial setup was easy."
 

Cons

"The management system would be better if it were more polished, if it had a better interface like, for example, Meraki"
"There were some settings which were confusing and unlabeled when trying to use the online help with the newer firmware.​"
"The coverage, concurrent user life, and visualization are the most valuable features of these solutions."
"I had some problems with Wi-Fi coverage in the workshop, which required purchasing more devices."
"Because it's cloud-based, it takes time for the floor maps and the heat map to load."
"We have an issue with the integration of Aruba Wireless with our LDAP servers."
"Our customers ask for a security portfolio, which the tool doesn't have."
"Configuration for this solution could be made easier, so people could benefit from being able to configure it within a quicker amount of time."
"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."
"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."
"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 solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The setup was complex."
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"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 needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't know the exact costs associated with Aruba Wireless, but I have a rough idea, and it's not too cheap, though it's less costly than Cisco Wireless. Pricing for Aruba Wireless is moderate. It's a three out of five."
"Aruba is probably cheaper than Cisco, and yet you get all the things that you want."
"The price is low. There is an additional cost for maintenance."
"Customers have to pay for perpetual licenses with Aruba controller licenses, depending on the features they are looking for."
"I think they should lower their prices."
"It comes with a relatively higher price tag, but it's essential to assess the value it brings to the market because it actively competes with other players in the industry and dedicates efforts to offer competitive devices."
"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."
"​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. ​"
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
