Find out in this report how the two WAN Edge solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The file and data reduction capabilities are very good. Without it, we have a great deal of network congestion."
"The tool's most valuable feature is bandwidth optimization."
"At the moment, for us, it is a very good solution because it has all the features we need and it is not so expensive."
"The solution includes features for SD-WAN and WAN such as batch conditioning and optimization."
"The tool is easy to configure due to the existing pre-configured templates. It is easy to manage compared to legacy systems, which takes time. We can complete a site within 30 minutes. The tool's best feature is outdoor onboarding. You need to bring the box to the site with the internet. It is a simple plug-and-play. The solution offers a zero-touch procedure."
"Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect has high availability."
"The initial setup is very easy and not confusing."
"The most valuable features of Silver Peak VX is the flexibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Additionally, the long-distance performance of the application storage is easy and effective."
"The visibility of the information that's available about APs through their cloud portal and some of the AI features are most valuable."
"The most valuable aspect of Mist Edge lies in its ability to provide comprehensive visibility into all network packets."
"The support from Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect has declined since Aruba acquired them. The knowledge and speed of the agents could improve."
"More technical sessions should be offered for deploying the solution."
"The license features should improve in the solution. For example, when you purchase VMware, it starts at a low level that has some functionality. When you want to expand, the difference in the price is substantial. I purchased the lower functional version for $4,000, and now if I want to upgrade, they ask me for $80,000. This is a $76,000 difference, there's no logic, but this is VMware."
"The security can be improved, with the firewall for example, because they supply a basic one but not a UTM."
"We would like to have better features for path selection. For example, if we know the network is going to go down then we would like to set up an alternate route for data packets in real-time."
"They have to implement more security with it. The security, mainly their firewall functions, have to be included in the firewall features."
"Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform’s stability and technical features need improvement."
"There are some functional limitations that could improve."
"I would like to see improvements in ensuring government compliance for Mist Edge."
"The one area that we're specifically looking into is their outdoor APs. The development of their outdoor APs is lagging as compared to their internal APs."
