However, a drawback lies in the cost associated with its WiFi offerings. With a pricing range of twelve hundred to fifteen hundred dollars for a single Access Point, exclusive of the subscription, it is acknowledged as a relatively expensive solution in the realm of WiFi services. Despite this drawback, the positive attributes of Mist make it a noteworthy option."
"Mist AI and Cloud need to improve the configuration speed."
"The solution lacks documentation."
"There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points."
"Configuration could be improved."
"There are some technical issues that may require attention"
"I would like to see integration with antivirus or other security endpoint solutions."
"The reporting module that got integrated into the system itself, used to be a standalone solution and I preferred that."

"The dashboards for this solution could be improved. We would like to divide the dashboards to give a clear view to our management team to show what we have and what deficiencies exist in our network."
"The improvement would be that SolarWinds NPM thoroughly checks its patches before releasing them to the market. Better testing, alpha testing, and then releasing it to the market."
"Application Performance Monitoring should be included in this solution."
"There isn't support available to us as they don't offer support in our country."
"One of the challenges with SolarWinds is that in order to pull the data, we have to have a lot of false positives."
