We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiWLM and Mojo Networks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Wireless LAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The solution is very secure."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"With Fortinet, there is a feature called Network-In-Control. It's the AP controller that decides what the clients are going to connect to... Even though your phone sees, let's say, two APs, since the wireless controller has visibility into and access across all the APs, it knows the best AP for the client to connect to. This way, the controller makes sure that none of the APs is over-crowded, and the spectrum is used properly."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to connect and broadcast to different networks without using a VLAN or a layer two switch, which allows you to easily create guest networks."
"If you do have a FortiGate Firewall somewhere in the network, you can connect the wireless controller to that... You get 100 percent visibility from a single point... You can see everything that's connected to the FortiGate, whether it's a switch or a wireless AP or a wireless controller or any other Fortinet product."
"The most valuable features are central management and the many other features available."
"This is the only product on the market currently that supports as many access points for wifi users."
"Fortinet FortiWLM is good for tracking assets, monitoring, and overall management."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiWLM is the single management pane and integrated controller inside the firewall."
"We can deploy a tunnel-based VLAN and SSID, for something that happens at the last minute, in a matter of minutes, because of the interaction between the FortiGate, the FortiSwitches, and the FortiAPs."
"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
"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."
"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 fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side."
"The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"The solution is expensive."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"Documentation could be improved."
"In the next release, they could improve by adding a controller-less server, or architecture that is provided in other solutions, such as Aruba. This would be a great benefit for customers."
"When using the FortiGate as the wireless controller, you cannot have automatic user registration, which is something that they should offer."
"The roaming of Fortinet FortiWLM could improve when comparing it to other solutions. We are missing some of the functionality in the controller. Additionally, they should offer more logs instead of using FortiAnalyzer because all the users will not be using the same thing."
"The guest management features need to be improved by adding automation."
"There is very little publicly available information about Virtual Cell and Single Channel Architecture. Promotion of the overall technology is limited as well. Being more vocal about a product that has many advantages would go a long way to eliminating a lot of the confusion and negative perception about Virtual Cell and Single Channel Architecture."
"The interface could certainly do with some improvement. We have other customers with WiFi networks, and they always use Ubiquiti. With Ubiquiti, it's a much better user interface, and it is much easier to configure."
"This solution should be easier to set up in a production environment."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"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."
"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 implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"The distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."
"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."
"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.""
