Comparison Results: Both solutions received very positive reviews from users. Cisco Wireless has a slight edge over Ubiquiti WLAN since users feel it has better stability and better technical support.
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"The solution is very secure."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"Overall, Cisco was stable and worked well for all our needs until we started having more and more students and teachers using YouTube and Zoom — what with classes being isolated and everything — which put a lot of strain on our Wi-Fi network."
"It is a stable solution. The performance was good."
"I'm very satisfied with Cisco's technical support."
"It gave us the ability to view wireless traffic, unwanted devices on the network, and how they affected overall network performance."
"The ability to make different types of networks, such as land networks, is the most valuable part of the solution."
"Stable and scalable with good technical support."
"Cisco Wireless is highly stable."
"The most valuable feature for us is management of the systems. We can easily access all features."
"Ubiquiti WLAN has good performance."
"Ubiquiti WLAN has been stable and is easy to install."
"Its most valuable feature is pricing."
"Ubiquiti WLAN's best feature is the free controller system software."
"The tool's deployment is very easy. The deployment of 15 access points can take a day."
"would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable."
"The solution is not complex to deploy."
"The ease of use and simplicity of the solution is its most valuable feature. This tool is best suited for small environments."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"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."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"The solution is stable but it could be improved. However, this could be because there are not enough APs."
"Most definitely the cost."
"It would be better if some utility lets us know the best place to install the system. Every time we install it, we have to change it, and we have to add more access points. This is a problem we have all the time. It would be better if it integrated seamlessly with products from other vendors. It'll also help if they included a device diagnostics feature in the next release."
"What my company doesn't like about the product is related to the coverage it provides to access points, an area which is one of the most important ones for us."
"Sometimes I've seen some issues come up with the interference. That's an issue users face at times. It becomes very complex when you have a lot of wireless interference in the area, or in your office. It's because of the environment of Cisco. Maybe, in the future, they can work on this area, and fix this issue."
"Cisco won't work with any other vendors. That is a significant problem with Cisco."
"We use a Cisco product called Room Kit for meetings. It would be nice if Cisco could improve that. I would also like a cloud solution."
"In Latin America, Cisco is very expensive in comparison to other technologies."
"Its scalability, UI, and security features could be better."
"There seems to be a drop in service. It's definitely a reliability or stability issue we face."
"Ubiquiti WLAN only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi radio and would be improved by including support for 5GHz."
"The support needs improvement. The official support is kind of complex. It's not that straightforward compared to Cisco and Aruba."
"Ubiquiti WLAN would be improved with the addition of individual AP configuration, which would allow for fine-tuning of individual access points and logins."
"Ubiquiti WLAN needs to expand the models with external antennas. It needs to improve stability."
"Largely we're happy with the product, however, the firmware deployments could maybe be managed a little bit differently."
"The product needs to improve the user interface in the migration from old to new versions."
