Find out what your peers are saying about HPE Aruba Networking, Cisco, Ruckus and others in Wireless LAN."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."
"Juniper Mist offers valuable features like comprehensive network insight, granular policy control, fast device setup, strong security, and efficient SSL traffic management."
"The solution is stable."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The simplicity is great."
"With Aruba Instant, we can use the access points independently, allowing us to position them in many places."
"Aruba Wireless is reliable, and the signal strength is pretty good."
"Aruba is outstanding, especially when it comes to the hospitality sectors."
"This is the second time I've implemented and installed this solution and I think it is outstanding. The support is excellent and so is the hardware. We don't need much support because nothing really goes wrong."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it can work with many devices. It supports everything that we need it to."
"Support through third party vendors or direct from HPE has been easy to manage. They are very responsive."
"Ability for a student or teacher to be able to roam freely from classroom to classroom, no matter the floor, without dropping a signal."
"The biggest selling point was the ability to create two different SSIDs to control public versus private wireless networks."
"The Juniper EX Series's most valuable feature is its robustness. Additionally, it is easy to use and great GUI."
"The solution has a high level of network functionality."
"The combination of hardware and software makes it a very good solution. It is a modern protocol that they have supported in the switches. The solution has good performance."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable feature is switching on our network."
"Junos OS is extremely flexible and easy to pick up."
"It is easy to configure, and there are three routing switches."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The solution is expensive."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"The console is difficult to use. The firewall settings could be improved."
"We're using the Aruba Sensor, but sometimes the sensor isn't talking to AirWave or the AP. If something happens, we need to receive an email directly from the sensor, but the controller doesn't know. If there's something like the high channel utilization from the sensor we send to the controller, the controller can change the channel because they're all in the same environment."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"Our customers ask for a security portfolio, which the tool doesn't have."
"What needs improvement in Aruba Wireless is its access point, in particular, it should have more flexibility. Aruba Wireless has Campus AP, Instant AP, and Unified AP, but it would be better if the product has a generic access point that you can manage over the cloud, on-premise, etc. Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is scalability. In terms of what additional features I'd like to see in the product, I'm unsure if it's already on the roadmap, but if possible, it would be good to have an SD-WAN functionality on the AP in Aruba Wireless."
"They should have more support for implementing Aruba Wireless in Smart Cities and outdoor applications."
"We need security features to recognize the traffic source and to apply Zero Trust security."
"The bad things about the product are the price, the information about the product, and the time it takes to deliver the product."
"You need to make a few local configurations to work with the solution. We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
"They could provide better security tools."
"The protocols can be tunneled, but on a global basis, not on an interface, and this is a feature that should be added."
"I have found the scalability could be improved in the version I was using."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"Juniper's support could be much better and faster."
"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."
"We would like it if there was more security added in future releases."
