Pros
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance.""The solution is very secure.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network.

"We can use an access point to broadcast multiple SSIDs, assign dynamic VLANs, and configure dynamic access control lists (ACLs).""The solution is very user-friendly and easy to use.""I am impressed with the tool's seamless integration.""The solution's roaming feature is very nice. When you move to another place it automatically changes the access point. It's one of the most valuable features.""It is based on 802.11ax, which is a new technology. There are several valuable things, such as its speed and mobility. There are options for self-organizing networking so that it can perform operations and maintain itself. Its three interfaces are very good and user friendly.""Huawei Wireless's most valuable feature is smart antenna, a combination of informative capabilities and advanced technology.""What I like most about Huawei Wireless is that it's customizable. It has many unique features, such as encryption, spatial streams, hiding features for different scenarios, low-density and high-density areas, and smart antennas.""It is easy to set up."

More Huawei Wireless Pros →

"The triangulation feature can be used to determine where a person is in relation to the access point.""If you compare wired versus wireless, it's convenient. You don't need to have one place for connectivity. You can move around and it's easier. Sometimes it's a hassle to work with wires, which is why wireless is so convenient.""AI is the most valuable feature.""The tool's best part is the GUI. It is user-friendly and fast due to AI features. The solution can help you fix things with AI, which is impressive.""It's really easy to provision and support. Those are its main features.""AI-driven automation helps implement the solution quickly.""Natural language patching is an important feature.""The cost is the most valuable aspect of this solution."

Cons
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""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.""I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features.""The price could be better."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The stability could be improved.""The demo program is an area for improvement in Huawei Wireless as it's hard to use. As a partner, you can use the solution for free, for thirty days, for example. On paper, everything looks fine, but you have to get permission and explain why you want to download the software, even if it's just for demo purposes. I don't get why I have to do this as a partner and still give an explanation that this would be for a demo setup. Downloading the solution isn't a click-and-install process that should go smoothly and efficiently. You have to get a lot of approvals and explain a lot, and in the end, you find out that you received the approval for one piece of software. It looks like you need additional software to use the software. My company asked for approval and received the approval three days later, but you need to install another software to use some of the features. In the past, most features were separate. Because Huawei wants a single pane of glass where all features should work with the Huawei equipment, Huawei decided to combine everything into the iMaster NCE Campus, which incorporates every other cloud solution. However, you still have to ask for approval for every piece of software, and without clear information on the features, the type of software, and the software files required, it's not so good from my point of view.""Cloud integration needs to be improved.""There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes.""The security of the solution could be better in the future.""The ongoing support and ongoing follow-up on customers is an area where the solution lacks.""While I am fine with the current licensing price, I would appreciate it to be more cost-effective.""The speed could be a bit better."

More Huawei Wireless Cons →

"There are some technical issues that may require attention""Sometimes it takes a lot of time for the access point to connect with the cloud.""Mist AI and Cloud should improve its integrations.""The solution lacks documentation.""It would be beneficial to have support for the Chinese language.""The inter-functionality with other vendors was a negative for us.""There is no local support for Mist in Brazil.""Mist AI and Cloud need to improve the configuration speed."
