"The solution is stable and scalable."
"The platform is very stable in terms of consistency and reliability."
"What I like most about this solution is that it is secure."
"The virtual Chassis feature for stacking is good in general, with high bandwidth for the link, which is good."
"The setup phase was straightforward."
"The campus switches and access switches are the most valuable and simple to deploy for Virtual Chassis."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"The price could be better."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"The ability to integrate with network devices from other vendors would be helpful."
"Technical support is an area that needs to be improved."
"The troubleshooting feature for the cloud version is challenging."
"ExtremeWireless should fix some general bugs and make the user interface more user-friendly."
"The reports could prove in ExtremeWireless. However, we are in the early stages of use and we might be able to configure them better."
"The solution should offer better support."
"The current product line is very high-level and is well suited for enterprise-level organizations, but they need a more cost-effective solution for smaller businesses."
"The ExtremeWireless WiNG Access Point on-premise is not as good as the cloud and many of my customers are switching. It is easier for my clients to manage everything from the cloud. I currently use a model of the controller that does not support any cloud functionality."
"The interface could be better. It needs improvement."
"Support could be improved."
"The difficulty of the installation of Juniper Ethernet Switches depends on the environment it is being implemented in. It is fairly straightforward in terms of being able to source the technical information as we need it. However, this process could improve."
"One potential drawback of the Juniper EX Series has been that those without experience using a command-line interface (CLI) may find it intimidating. However, Junos is working on improving this by offering tools, such as Juniper Mist with Wired Assurance and Apstra. Additionally, the graphical user interface (GUI) could be improved as it has been considered lackluster across the board in Junos."
"The management tools are limited in their abilities, and suffer from upgrade problems."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches could improve in the EX 2300 model because it does not support IPsec VPN. Only the models at 3400 or higher support it. Additionally, there is a need for support for Mac which is lacking. Some of their competitors, such as Cisco, support Mac."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see better integration with software-defined networking."
