Has enabled centralized user management and improved wireless access point aggregation
To improve Cisco Wireless, the ports on the access points are all 100 Meg, not 1 gig. We have not gotten a gigabyte interface of about 1,000, but the controller we have is just 1 gig. We would prefer if we could increase the controller to a 10 gig interface because we want to connect our controller to a 10 gig interface, which currently limits us to 1 gig. When we want to move higher capacity data via wireless, it limits us to 1 gig.

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

"This solution is highly stable. We have only had one issue in seven years."
"The LAN network conductivity is good."
"It is tough, has a nice speed, and is quite reliable."
"Cisco Wireless is quite convenient for mobile and laptop access."
"The integration with Cisco ISE is good, and together we use them to provide services."
"It integrates with Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA)."
"Wireless connectivity is the main feature. It is also securely integrated with ISE, which is valuable because, in the banking industry, we also cover the security aspect. This Wi-Fi controller integrates with the ISE system that we have. Every user that comes on the wireless needs to log in with the domain. If they don't, it will not allow the user to join the network. This is the key feature of this solution."
"Cisco Wireless is scalable."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"Mojo Networks (Arista WiFi) is extremely secure with WIPS, built-in wireless."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good."
"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."
"For support, we do not have to deal with a whole phone menu tree. You get to talk to an engineer right away."
"Their Cognitive WiFi analytics (Mojo Aware) is the biggest feature on their dashboard. It helps us know where the problem, so we don't have to spend time with the customer diagnosing it."
"The solution is very stable."
 

Cons

"They should introduce zero interference capabilities."
"In this part of the world, support is the weak side of this solution."
"It's expensive."
"The coverage provided by the solution is an area of concern in some cases, making it an area where improvements are required."
"There is no technology without room for improvement. The main setback with Cisco solutions, not only with Cisco Wireless, is having to update the OS manually. We are now migrating to Miraki, so we've been able to work that out."
"The solution could improve by having an advanced model with a controller. Additionally, the solution could be more secure."
"The internet speed is high within environments. As you move further away from the access point, there is a decline in speed. Omada or Ruckus don’t have the speed degradation as you move away from the access point."
"The current issue with Cisco is I don't have centralized management."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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”."
"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."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no subscription fees."
"Its licensing is not simple. There are additional license costs for features, which is frustrating for us. There are some features that are included for free in the base Aruba product, but they are available at additional costs in this solution."
"The solution is very costly."
"We are on an annual license. The license and the hardware are expensive."
"The product could be priced better."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Cisco Wireless."
"The license structure is confusing."
"Its cost is a little bit higher than other products. Fortinet and Huawei are cheaper. If we were not a bank, I would go for Huawei or Fortinet because they are cheap, and I don't need that much security. A financial institute, a university, or a medical institute would need security to protect the customer data. That's why we buy this high-end product that has integrated security features."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"It requires a license and that's a recurring cost and that has a really high cheque value."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"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."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"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."
