"We use this solution to troubleshoot our wireless systems, specifically regarding signal strength."
"Cisco Prime can help customers fix their Wi-Fi issues with scientific and digital data."
"Cisco Prime allows us to do a lot of functions with the users and it is flexible."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco Prime is the heat map."
"If an AP or any wireless device goes into critical mode, Cisco Prime sends an alert. That is the most helpful feature."
"The installation is easy."
"As a large organization, it is difficult to individually monitor every device. Instead, we use Cisco Prime to keep an eye on the network and services. We do not use it as a node tool, as we have other tools for network operation centers. When services go down, it can cause issues, we rely on Cisco Prime to monitor and notify us of any service disruptions. We mainly use Cisco Prime Infrastructure for configuration-level tasks."
"The product greatly improved our organization in terms of making configuration, deployment, and firmware upgrades easy for multiple automated devices."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist Wired Assurance is zero-touch provisioning for query edge switches. You can connect the switch directly to your edge locations and then directly onboard, similar to the Cisco Meraki solutions."
"We would like to see the inclusion of detailed alerts."
"I would rate the scalability of Cisco Prime a six out of ten. To scale up from a hundred to a thousand devices, the platform needs to be rebuilt logically. This process might require a downtime window and may involve changing the hardware or upgrading to a larger appliance."
"The onboarding process could be improved and developed to enhance compatibility for non-Cisco devices."
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors in the market."
"The solution can be slow at times."
"The reporting could be simplified and the information made clearer to the user."
"The product needs to improve its stability."
"The product's performance monitoring feature could be more intuitive."
"The configuration aspect of the solutions is relatively new, but I have had positive experiences. However, for more advanced tasks, such as VXLANs on the EX platform, Juniper Mist Wired Assurance may not be the best option due to certain limitations. Nonetheless, it does have a CLI override feature for specialized configurations that cannot be done through the GUI."
"The platform’s monitoring tool is not up to the mark. It is not proactive enough and lacks some capabilities. Additionally, they should work on providing integration with other vendors."
