We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance.""Juniper Mist offers valuable features like comprehensive network insight, granular policy control, fast device setup, strong security, and efficient SSL traffic management.""With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features.""The solution is pretty generic and easy to use.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good."

"The product's initial setup phase is easy.""The initial setup process was easy.""D-Link Wireless is a tool that is used since it is an easy and user-friendly product.""The solution is extremely easy to install. You just add them and in a few clicks, they are ready to go.""It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The setup process is very easy.""D-Link is a good product that is quite affordable and I recommend it.""This product is user-friendly and we can manage it as per the requirements of the user."

"Its most valuable feature is pricing.""Ubiquiti provides good connectivity for the end-user, so I think it's stable.""The solution is very easy to install.""Ubiquiti WLAN has good availability, and it is much cheaper.""Ubiquiti WLAN is a reliable, stable, and robust solution.""Firstly, I initially purchased the device to build a VPN, and one very valuable feature for me was the ability to create a layer two VPN, which was available on the legacy ER router. It allowed me to expand a subnet to a remote site, which was essential for my setup. Additionally, I appreciated that the CLI of the router was similar to other Juniper products that I was familiar with.""Great management interface.""The solution is scalable."

Cons
"They should include SD-WAN features to it.""Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""The price could be better.""The pricing is very high in the Indian market.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""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."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The only issue is with the controller visibility of the devices connecting to the network.""Sometimes we configure the SSID with a password but the same AP shows two WiFi connections with the same SSID name (one is protected by a password and another one give access without a password).""The solution doesn't have hotspots. Users can't set it up so that visitors can log in via Facebook or social media as they can at, for example, airports. D-Link should include hotspots that offer integration with social media. That way, visitors don't need to be asking people for passwords. They can just use Facebook.""Sometimes, the solution needs to be restarted.""The performance offered by D-Link Wireless can be a bit problematic at times, owing to which it is an area that can be considered for improvement.""The stability could be a bit better.""The support offered by the product needs to be faster with better technical personnel.""Password restriction: Sometimes we set a password and it uses that password but, after some days/months, the password gets changed and a few laptops still use old the password while a few use the new password. The password restriction option needs to improve."

More D-Link Wireless Cons →

"The solution needs to improve robustness, security, and stability.""The product’s bandwidth could be better.""The product must provide better warranties.""The downside is the interface changes, where they are constantly doing firmware updates.""Ubiquiti WLAN only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi radio and would be improved by including support for 5GHz.""I have never used cloud solutions. My first approach would be something related to the cloud, and backups on the cloud, and maybe an easier way to connect to it because I have an on-premises environment.""Switching devices requires reconfiguration from scratch.""Cloud management is one feature that should be included in the next release. This tool is best suited for small environments, not large and complex ones."
