"The AI deployment process involves adding access points and placing them in the designated area. The AI system automatically adjusts channel selection and transmission power without any issues with stability or throughput. It has improved network performance."
"If you compare wired versus wireless, it's convenient. You don't need to have one place for connectivity. You can move around and it's easier. Sometimes it's a hassle to work with wires, which is why wireless is so convenient."
"The cost is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Natural language patching is an important feature."
"AI is the most valuable feature."
"I have a very good experience with the solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The most important feature is reporting. The reports that are generated are useful and they save a lot of time with respect to monitoring."
"The biggest thing for me is that it provided enough information for me to monitor. It alerts and provides you with the information you need."
"What I've found most valuable about the solution is that it's scalable."
"I found a lot of valuable features in SolarWinds NPM, such as the customized application monitoring that allows you to customize any monitoring and script customization, and you also have the option to deploy and upgrade SolarWinds NPM online, which is very useful for my organization."
"Being able to easily, and quickly obtain disc space statistics from servers and determine how much was free or used on various volumes."
"SolarWinds NPM provides an overview of network monitoring, extending its capabilities to cover other aspects, such as virtual machines and servers. The platform has features like NetPath, which is particularly beneficial for end-users, offering insights into issues like latency, packet loss, and connectivity problems with routers, switches, or servers."
"The set up was very easy. We didn't have any problems with the setup. The deployment took less than an hour."
"The price could be better."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The solution is expensive."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"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."
"Juniper should integrate all their dashboards instead of having separate dashboards...Since it lacks the integration of dashboards, Juniper needs to improve it."
"There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points."
"The user experience should be improved. It's not user-friendly."
"There are some technical issues that may require attention"
"Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors."
"Configuration could be improved."
"There is no local support for Mist in Brazil."
"The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license."
"Technical support can be slow to respond."
"Time: A worldwide deployment can be confusing for dispersed users with non-local times. Each node should have a local time (with summer offset if appropriate) & each user should view & report in their local time."
"This solution would benefit from expanding on the capabilities within the API."
"It would be nice if SolarWinds could have a polling engine on the site that would collect the reporting and then manage everything itself."
"The tool can only monitor up to 1000 instances in a single SolarWinds console. Customers may have over 1000 instances. Hence, it needs to support a minimum of 1500 instances. It should also improve support."
"Fortigate firewalls are one example of a product that we are unable to monitor properly via SolarWinds NPM."
"The console could be more user-friendly. It would be better if SolarWinds updated the user interface."
"The interface could be made more user-friendly."
