We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar and Ubiquiti WLAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network. Additionally, when there is an update on the APs they are able to reboot quickly reducing downtime. Other solutions have a longer downtime when updates are done."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"The simplicity is great."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"There is a definite ROI with this product. This product creates a baseline of technology that will be a means to grow from five to ten years from now. By using this solution, it is an investment on the installation of that baseline."
"The features aren't much different than those in Aruba, but deployment is easier to configure and the pricing is better."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"We are very satisfied with the performance."
"I have worked with different solutions in the past and switched to Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar because of its quick installation time. It requires no additional preparation. The product is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support of this solution is great. The timeliness of their responses is crucial for me. When I raise an issue, I can count on receiving a prompt reply, eliminating the need for extensive online searches or phone calls."
"Express in default configuration mode with first turn-on is easy to set up and deploy from a medium installation standpoint."
"One feature that differentiates Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar from some other vendors is the fact that on-premise OmniVista licenses are perpetual."
"The solution allows you to see the SNMP packets, the DPI packets, and the SNMP server."
"The most beneficial thing about Ubiquiti is that it is simple to deploy."
"Its most valuable feature is pricing."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is a very stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"You can save backups of this controller locally and then I can export it to wherever I want."
"The solution has a lot of great features."
"It is similar to the switches, where it is one of those things where it just works. They are very reliable."
"The product’s most valuable feature is the workflow-driven setup for the infrastructure component."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"It is not possible to integrate Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar with third-party software like Opera, a property management system (PMS)."
"I would prefer to have the integrated heat map feature provided by the basic controller in the Solution instead of purchasing an external one. Accessing this capability directly within the controller's access point would be convenient."
"The current implementation of our Guest Access network in isolation for Express mode is very complicated in comparison with leading market solutions."
"If the customers plan to go on the cloud side, they need encryption and daily communications from a security perspective."
"Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Stellar's radio management side could be improved."
"There are occasional OS bugs."
"It needs to be faster in order to process and transmit bigger packets."
"Better integration with third-party systems is what our customers are expecting in the future."
"The downside is the interface changes, where they are constantly doing firmware updates."
"The solution could improve by having a cloud version. A cloud version is the easiest to configure anywhere in the world."
"If they can integrate or release a single platform because, currently, there are two different platforms for switches and routers. So, maintaining just one unified platform, like, for example, unifying the models or brands, and avoiding separate platforms for edge switches, edge routers, and other Ubiquiti products, would simplify the integration and implementation process."
"The solution should improve stability."
"Ubiquiti WLAN would be improved with the addition of individual AP configuration, which would allow for fine-tuning of individual access points and logins."
"The solution is stable but could improve."
"The solution should include and expand on a central management system."
"Ubiquiti lacks troubleshooting tools. For example, there aren't tools that your clients can use to gather input on the AP itself. There's no visibility in the application layer or reporting. It doesn't have a lot of management features."
