We performed a comparison between Juniper Mist Edge and VMware SD-WAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two WAN Edge solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The visibility of the information that's available about APs through their cloud portal and some of the AI features are most valuable."
"The most valuable aspect of Mist Edge lies in its ability to provide comprehensive visibility into all network packets."
"VeloCloud developed DMPO to increase performance and connectivity."
"I would absolutely recommend VeloCloud because it's user-friendly and because the integration is easier than with other solutions."
"If one circuit crashes, we are able to switch to a second circuit without any disruption in connection."
"Initially, we had a scattered environment, but VMware SD-WAN helped us achieve centralization, which was beneficial."
"It is very simple to configure. When you use the cloud to configure the equipment, it has zero-touch provisioning."
"Proactively detects where problems might arise."
"Increases the performance of applications and is easy to deploy."
"When we upgrade to one of the edges, it goes very smoothly."
"I would like to see improvements in ensuring government compliance for Mist Edge."
"The one area that we're specifically looking into is their outdoor APs. The development of their outdoor APs is lagging as compared to their internal APs."
"Reports could be simplified."
"In the future, we would like to have more capacity using this solution as there are limitations on the VCE. For example, only 50 tunnels can be supported currently but we would like to have 200 tunnels using the VeloCloud VCE device."
"VMware SD-WAN could be improved with more automation and more integration, but each vendor could use these improvements."
"I would like to see more features added to increase visibility."
"Technical support is in need of improvement."
"The only thing that I'm having issues with is on one of the sites, I can't see the location on the map."
"Security is a challenge. I would like to see VMware add things like IPS, IDS, and web filtering. These features are the future of security, and most competing firewalls have them."
"The initial setup could be simplified for beginners."
