Centralized control simplifies device management but stability requires attention
Overall, ExtremeWireless has a lot of room for improvement. The main concern is stability. As a user, I focus on supporting the devices and ensuring they meet my client’s needs. While I do not handle the AI integration, I've heard it's a new feature that could enhance functionality. I rate ExtremeWireless at seven out of ten.

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

"It's cloud-based and very easy to deploy."
"ExtremeWireless offers profiles, policies, and tags."
"The customer service and support provided by Extreme are excellent."
"I like Cloud IQ, ExtremeWireless' cloud controller and analytics platform. It's full of information, easy to use, and provides excellent visibility into my network."
"The product's price is competitive. It is an impressive and reliable product."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"The cloud-based management system is valuable."
"The stability of the solution has been fine."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."
"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 cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​"
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"The initial setup was easy."
 

Cons

"The user interface of ExtremeWireless could be better. It is not user-friendly."
"They should develop more troubleshooting tools for system management."
"The cost is a little high."
"ExtremeWireless should fix some general bugs and make the user interface more user-friendly."
"The management portal is in need of improvement."
"The main area for improvement is the company's local visibility."
"The onsite controllers are not as good as the cloud controller. I would also like ExtremeWireless to add web filtering on the access point. This feature is available from other vendors but not ExtremeWireless."
"The current product line is very high-level and is well suited for enterprise-level organizations, but they need a more cost-effective solution for smaller businesses."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"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”."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"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."
"My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge."
"The setup was complex."
"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."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well and we currently are only paying for a license for maintenance."
"ExtremeWireless is subscription-based for both cloud and on-prem solutions, and it's quite expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"There are both paid and free licenses of the cloud environment, with only basic functionality in the free version."
"I rate the price of Extreme Wireless a three out of five."
"The purchase of 350 access points cost approximately $250,000 USD."
"ExtremeWireless isn't budget-friendly. The hardware costs around 20,000 Indian rupees. We're still using an older controller, so it doesn't require a license, unlike the newest versions of the ExtremeWireless controller."
"Our access points device is at its end of life. I can buy one more and then I must buy a new device, but if it is a new device it will not support the old virtual appliance. I would need to upgrade our virtual appliance to the next version or build a new virtual appliance with new devices, and it's not good for us. The overall licensing subscription could be better."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"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."
"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."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
"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."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"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."
