Strong performance supports network team effectively but guest access compatibility needs improvement
We connect the network using Aruba Wireless. We connect our office network, and we use it primarily within our network team Aruba Wireless has many features, especially their state-of-the-art controller, which can be connected to the cloud. They also have an unlimited lifetime warranty, which is…

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

"HA: Apps failover without reboot."
"​Initial setup was very straightforward. We set up the switches and APs, then took it from there. ​​"
"There are a couple of valuable features of Aruba Wireless for us, with ClearPass as an authentication product and AirWave as a reporting function that allows us to do different reporting on WiFi utilization at our different campuses so I can break down different areas of the college and find out how many users are using the network at any given time and the utilization of different access points, which allows me to do capacity management."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise.​"
"Its manageability of APs is the most valuable feature: ease of adding APs and the ability to configure the APs on the fly. Also, their support engineers are great to work with."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Aruba Central, which offers centralized management. You can manage its switches, APs, and data access. It is easy to manage the entire switches and APs. The solution is the best in terms of security and manageability."
"The main features of Aruba Wireless in my country is its popularity, long hardware warranty when compared to other solutions, and it integrates well with our network access control solution."
"It has very flexible features."
"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 features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network."
"The solution is very stable."
"It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
 

Cons

"The solution is now taking eight to 12 months to deliver the product."
"The upgrades tend to be buggy and better testing is needed before they are released."
"It needs the ability to perform mobility device management. They should have some kind of mobility device management built into the product."
"The pricing could always be better."
"We have an issue with the integration of Aruba Wireless with our LDAP servers."
"​The ARM functionality does not always seem to perform how I would like. In some cases, I have had to manually assign channels to avoid channel confusion."
"Initial setup was complex."
"The configuration is extremely detailed and can be quite complex."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"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 implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The setup was complex."
"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.""
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We have some licenses for the solution, and we need not renew licenses. But we need to pay a hundred thousand if you want to renew our subscription and renew the hardware."
"Get multiple bids/quotes, and talk to the representatives about the limitations of the product; pretty standard."
"The price point is pretty high compared to Ubiquiti and other equipment."
"Pricing support has always been cost-effective."
"The price is reasonable. I would rate the cost as 8 out of 10."
"The price of Aruba Wireless has a more competitive price than other solutions."
"The access points are more cost-effective over some other providers, both in cost per AP and the option of a controller-less environment."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"There are other solutions, like Ubiquiti, that have lowered their prices, which sometimes makes the argument to go with them. However, we do not bake in the WiFi for other vendors into our managed services, because they do not meet our standard offering."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
"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."
"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."
