"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."
"There was only ever one case in which an access point failed, but it was reintegrated. The issue was more of a matter of oversight. One part of the network had covered ten access points."

"Aruba Instant should not have a limit on users for future releases."
"The captive portal through Facebook doesn't work."
"The product can be improved by adding a clear interface."

"In a corporate environment or a larger network, where more advanced filtering or MAC-based filtering is needed, I don't think the IAPs would be sufficient."
"They could provide a centralized system to manage switches incorporated into multiple branches."
"When there are a lot of people connected, especially during video streaming demonstrations, the connection can get a bit choppy."
"It is suitable for smaller organizations, but it may not be the best choice for large enterprises."
"The solution's range could be better."
"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."
"The product's machine or equipment can cater to around 20 connections and cannot go beyond 50 simultaneous connections, because of which I think the tool's scalability is limited."
"The solution should include higher speed and lesser cost."
"When I first deployed the solution, I couldn't use a tagged VLAN for the management. It might already have been fixed in a recent firmware upgrade."
"The solution can be more integrated with other brands."
