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 useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network. Additionally, when there is an update on the APs they are able to reboot quickly reducing downtime. Other solutions have a longer downtime when updates are done."
"The solution is stable."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"The simplicity is great."
"Aruba is much better than other vendors like Cisco and NETGEAR in terms of quality, price, and value for money."
"It's super user-friendly."
"The solution has fast deployment and easy setup. There is no security PIN for this account."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The mobile app is good. We have many things that are connected through mobile. Most users use mobile to connect to the Wi-Fi."
"Its technical support is excellent."
"It's really easy to set up. And, you don't have to pay for the cloud solution. That's really interesting for our clients. And the other thing is, the roaming is also quite good."
"Its performance is very good. It suits small and medium sites very well."
"It has improved overall IT efficiency across the board."
"Good wireless solution that's user-friendly, stable, and scalable, with very good product support, and a limited lifetime warranty."
"The feature that I love the most is being able to broadcast different SSIDs with different protocol requirements. "
"With Aruba Wireless Controller, all our access points are connected to one controller. Through that controller, we can actually handle each access point; we can disconnect or connect that access point, and then we can tell, or see, or allow how many users are, or should be, connected through that access point."
"What I like best about Aruba Wireless is that it doesn't need a controller. The product also has a GUI that's easy to navigate."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise."
"I have found the most valuable features are the new Wi-Fi six technology and it also integrates with triple-A solutions. It has good bandwidth and virtual control."
"The wireless controller and access points are valuable features."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"The price could be better."
"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."
"The solution is expensive."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"When there are a lot of people connected, especially during video streaming demonstrations, the connection can get a bit choppy."
"The tool's pricing is not good."
"The tool is priced high."
"It is scalable to a certain degree but not nearly as scalable and robust as your enterprise-grade solutions."
"I would like to see a feature that blocks, increases, or decreases bandwidth capacity for devices."
"The solution can be more integrated with other brands."
"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."
"The setup is not very easy. It requires some experience with Wi-Fi, especially with cloud connection and security."
"Access point mounting options could be better."
"Their documentation needs to be improved. Aruba's documentation is poor."
"The new 8400 failed at Lab, plus its integration with Aruba Central."
"Aruba doesn't match some competitors in wireless signal strength. It isn't in the same class as Cisco Meraki, so I would use Cisco Meraki in situations where I need to cover a large open space. Meraki has more powerful signals going out."
"Aruba Wireless is a good product, but it still has some issues, especially at the beginning, where there's inconsistent syncing between the cloud and the APs. Sometimes, there's also a little lag when accessing the query."
"Improvements to the GUI, such as being able to search in the Mobility Master, would be nice."
"Not cost-effective."
"The support should be faster."
