Find out in this report how the two Wireless LAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is very secure."
"Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"It is easy to use, manage, and implement."
"If you don't need heavy-duty filtering and things like that, it's a cheap solution. And, you have central management, and it works."
"When users want to migrate from one location to another, they face no problems with connectivity."
"The integration with ClearPass is the most valuable feature."
"I've worked with other products, but I prefer Aruba because of its cost and simplicity."
"I like that the solution is not complex."
"You can handle all of the access points at once virtually instead of manually handling each one. You're able to populate all of the information to all of the access points through the virtual controller as well. It transforms everything it a single access point, which simplifies things."
"The features I have found most valuable is that the solution creates a guest portal for guest networks, and setting up SSID authentication to the regular server."
"The solution has a lot of great features."
"You can save backups of this controller locally and then I can export it to wherever I want."
"would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable."
"The product is simple to use in terms of GUI and dashboard."
"The tool's deployment is very easy. The deployment of 15 access points can take a day."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"The solution is not complex to deploy."
"Ubiquiti provides good connectivity for the end-user, so I think it's stable."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"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."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"It uses a different portal and has limitations from the customer side as it's not refined for MSP."
"The tool needs to enhance its security features."
"The Central cloud management (optional) is far behind the competition in features, ease of use, and dependability. I have tried Aruba Central a few times over the years and, in my option, it is not where it needs to be for serious consideration in production environments."
"In a corporate environment or a larger network, where more advanced filtering or MAC-based filtering is needed, I don't think the IAPs would be sufficient."
"The solution should be able to support more users on the access points."
"The wireless coverage should be increased"
"There is an issue with flooding to the Aruba access point on the ports."
"The restart time should be improved."
"Its scalability, UI, and security features could be better."
"The solution should include and expand on a central management system."
"The coverage could be increased."
"The solution needs to improve robustness, security, and stability."
"The solution should support a larger bandwidth or distance between the access points and the main stations."
"The strength of the signal from the access points could be improved."
"There seems to be a drop in service. It's definitely a reliability or stability issue we face."
"The product needs to improve the user interface in the migration from old to new versions."
