We performed a comparison between Ruckus Wireless 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 Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"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 the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"The simplicity is great."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the coverage, which is exceptional."
"Key features are integrated WiFi client performance tools, sophisticated user access controls, and easy and understandable controls and interfaces."
"The setup is very straightforward."
"Zero-handoff is one of the top features. The client balancing between the access points is good. Its security is also fine."
"The most valuable feature is that Ruckus offers better coverage."
"Because of Zero-IT, it is easier to get people connected to the correct SSID without providing a passphrase."
"Configurations are highly customizable and we could tune easily to suit our Wi-Fi requirements."
"Ruckus Wireless is a valuable solution. It's both scalable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature is the level of security on the Wi-Fi network."
"You can save backups of this controller locally and then I can export it to wherever I want."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The solution has a lot of great features."
"Great management interface."
"The solution is not complex to deploy."
"Ubiquiti provides good connectivity for the end-user, so I think it's stable."
"Ubiquiti WLAN is stable."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"The solution is expensive."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"I recommend enhancing flexibility for administrators within the Partner Domain."
"I would like to see this product made a little more economical because it's very expensive."
"I would like to see more detailed network performance, monitoring, and reporting tools or information. This would improve the deployment of multi-site networks and help administrators to progress on a timely efficient manner."
"It would be better if there were more visibility on the cloud. We have some lack of visibility because of wireless interference, and you have to do some troubleshooting for the packet capture. They have a built-in packet capture, and we can monitor the application. You can see all things over the cloud. They also provide an on-premise solution, so they need to improve the on-premise version and ensure an output with more visibility. Live monitoring in a live environment should be good. What is happening with wireless is that the wireless client is not connected due to interference, and there should be a shield zone on their wireless cloud. If they give us more features on both Ruckus Cloud or on-premises, that will be best. Nowadays, security is more important for everyone using wireless technology. If they implement a little bit of reduction and prevention features for some packets on the wireless cloud, some features like web filtering and some prevention for blocking will be good for the network."
"The price is an area that requires improvement. The pricing could be better."
"The solution lacks a lot of features other solutions provide. If you are an organization that is more focused on security or you need a lot of other features, such as location tracking then Ruckus Wireless may not be the right choice. If you want a solution with more than basic security I would choose Arista or Aruba."
"I think it would be nice if Ruckus offered the option of a cloud interface for easy configuration of Ruckus Wireless."
"The pricing needs to be more competitive. They need to re-examine their business model and see if there is a way to provide their service at a cheaper cost."
"Its scalability, UI, and security features could be better."
"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 downside is the interface changes, where they are constantly doing firmware updates."
"The strength of the signal from the access points could be improved."
"The coverage could be increased."
"When I started to upgrade, the controller for Unbuntu was really struggling to start up, however, that has since been solved."
"The product needs to improve the user interface in the migration from old to new versions."
"The logs are not detailed enough. You can't clearly see what is being blocked in Ubiquiti WLAN, making the troubleshooting process a little bit harder."
