"Its technical support is excellent.""The product is easy to set up, providing value for time since it is very quick.""Its performance is very good.

I do not have to be there to know if something is wrong.""It's super user-friendly.""The product is scalable. It has 20 users.""The solution is scalable.""The app and the provisioning are the best features of the product. It was really impressive that I was able to just provision it remotely. I didn't have to be on-site with my friend, and we were just able to get everything up and operational. So, the app is great. It sends me notifications when things are down, and it tells me how everything is doing."

More Aruba Instant On Access Points Pros →

"It is based on 802.11ax, which is a new technology. There are several valuable things, such as its speed and mobility. There are options for self-organizing networking so that it can perform operations and maintain itself. Its three interfaces are very good and user friendly.""The solution is very user-friendly and easy to use.""I am impressed with the tool's seamless integration.""We can use an access point to broadcast multiple SSIDs, assign dynamic VLANs, and configure dynamic access control lists (ACLs).""It is easy to set up.""From an implementation perspective, it's easy. I rate it a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup, and ten is an easy setup.""The solution offers very good value for money.""All of the features are valuable in Huawei Wireless."

Cons
"The pricing should be made cheaper.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key.

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"If anything, its reporting could be improved.""If there's a way to get a floor map of our office space so we can place the access points on a map to be able to see what's what, where everything is going, where the most traffic is being connected, that would be a nice feature.""When there are a lot of people connected, especially during video streaming demonstrations, the connection can get a bit choppy.""I would like to see a feature that blocks, increases, or decreases bandwidth capacity for devices.""The limited functionality of the mobile app restricts its use primarily to small and medium-sized setups, making it less suitable for enterprise-level solutions.""While it is mostly scalable, there are some limitations.""The tool's pricing is not good.""The solution's range could be better."

More Aruba Instant On Access Points Cons →

"The scalability could be better.""There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes.""Improving the visibility, control offered, and cloud management would all be very helpful. Also how you can monetize the information you get from Wi-Fi controllers should be improved.""The security of the solution could be better in the future.""As such, there are no problems. It has been good. There were some issues with the network design, but that is not specifically related to the product. We had to make some improvements in the network design. The product as such is fine, and there are no big issues. We are using the latest version having most of the features available in the industry, so the specs are very high. If something new comes up new in the industry, it needs to be incorporated into the product.""The manageability could be improved.""Huawei Wireless can improve the signal, sometimes it becomes weak.""Technical support could be better."
