"The most valuable feature of Aruba ClearPass is the ease of deployment and integration with other equipment in the network."
"We find that at the end of the projects we manage, all functionalities perform quite well. We've tested it a lot and find it to be overall a very good solution."
"It is beneficial from a security perspective because not everyone can connect to our wifi without going through an authentication process."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba ClearPass is its ease of use and the GUI is user-friendly."
"The most valuable features are two-factor authentication and real-time logon monitoring."
"We mainly implemented UserLock for multi-factor authentication, but the user login insights are also nice."
"The interface could be made easier and more intuitive."
"The solution should be more precise for VMs and allow for management of the entire system."
"I would like to see is “AAS”. Not only Aruba APs with central, but NAC/ClearPass, AirWave, and everything licensed as a Service. This way, like AWS, they can spin up what they need when they need it and vice versa."
"ClearPass isn't hard to set up, but it takes a long time."
"Some functions could be improved."
"ClearPass' interface could be more user-friendly."
"ClearPass' GUI could be more user-friendly."
"The technical support has some room for improvement. It takes them a long time to respond sometimes. I rate Aruba support six out of 10."
"The product and service are already great as it is but if I could add one feature, I guess it would be nice to have another factor of authentication (two additional factors) like your phone and a token for example, for when people forget their phone at home."
"I would like to see UserLock add the ability to automatically create a group policy in Active Directory. That might streamline the setup process."
