We performed a comparison between Mist AI and Cloud and Ruckus Wireless 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."With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"The solution is very secure."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance."
"Natural language patching is an important feature."
"The triangulation feature can be used to determine where a person is in relation to the access point."
"The most valuable aspect is that they operate on small microservices, offering numerous open APIs that enhance the value of our Wi-Fi network. This flexibility allows us to optimize various aspects such as workforce planning and occupancy management. The platform is highly open in the market, providing robust APIs for seamless integration with other tools. Currently, we leverage these capabilities at a building site, incorporating IoT sensors to gather data. The collected data is stored in a centralized location, and we plan to use AI for analysis. This analysis will include insights on peak activity times, humidity levels, temperature variations, and other relevant metrics within the building."
"The cost is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Mist AI and Cloud have definitely improved the functioning of our organization. The access to the Internet, including its speed and reliability, has significantly improved."
"I have a very good experience with the solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It's really easy to provision and support. Those are its main features."
"Has an extremely good feature set."
"The reason we picked Ruckus, in addition to our long-standing relationship with them, is pretty much that the RFS characteristics of it seem to be the best."
"In general, all implementations are standard and pretty straightforward."
"The solution is used for public Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi solution provides internet connectivity in the public platform."
"I like the price and its capacity."
"Configurations are highly customizable and we could tune easily to suit our Wi-Fi requirements."
"The most valuable feature of Ruckus Wireless is the Beamforming feature."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"Dead zones were immediately eliminated when we deployed these WAPs in all of our locations, plus Ruckus’ analytics on the ZoneDirectors allow us to quickly identify clients that are taking too much bandwidth."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"There could be more integration."
"Mist AI and Cloud should be marketed more and focus on making partners in the industry."
"The user experience should be improved. It's not user-friendly."
"The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license."
"The inter-functionality with other vendors was a negative for us."
"In future releases, they need to add some router models. Because currently, it supports only SSR and WAN routers. But adding other routers would be good."
"There is no local support for Mist in Brazil."
"Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors."
"The switching could be improved. The active component requires a data center. Cisco and HPE have a complete solution for data centers. Ruckus has a core solution, but the data center aspect needs to be improved."
"Ruckus products, overall, have a wide range of useful features, however not all customers have the budget to buy a corporate Wi-Fi solution. Most of the time, it's far too expensive for our clients to consider going with Ruckus, and they might like to see cheaper solutions in the Ruckus range."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see a more detailed spectrum analysis."
"I would like to see more location-based services on the Smart Cell Insight on access points."
"Most customers revoke the idea of deploying it when they observe the cost per AP license."
"I would like to see newer on-premises controller-type models, similar to the 3000."
"In my company, we still has to do some manual calculations on where we should set the access points, which is a time-consuming process as there were no automatic setup functions provided by the tool."
"I would like to see more detailed network performance, monitoring, and reporting tools or information. This would improve the deployment of multi-site networks and help administrators to progress on a timely efficient manner."
