More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"The solution has fast deployment and easy setup. There is no security PIN for this account.""Aruba is much better than other vendors like Cisco and NETGEAR in terms of quality, price, and value for money.""The coverage Aruba provides across the physical area is much better. Most probably because of the new technology, the 4x4 antenna, and everything around it. It's just a much better, easier to use, and easier to manage product.""It's super user-friendly.""The configuration is very simple.""The product is easy to set up, providing value for time since it is very quick.""Its performance is very good. It suits small and medium sites very well.""Its technical support is excellent."

More Aruba Instant On Access Points Pros →

"The solution is very user-friendly and easy to use.""It is easy to set up.""This solution is very simple and the interface is user-friendly.""You can add a lot of features, such as cloud, integration with IoT, etc. They have a lot of options available but the top feature is the performance.""I am impressed with the tool's seamless integration.""The most valuable features of Huawei Wireless are WiFi coverage and ease of use.""The product is simple and easy to use.""That would be more of engineering at this point. I'm from more of the business side. It's pretty much doing the standard installations with portal integrations and integrations with the Mac."

Cons
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process.""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.""Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features.""If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""They should include SD-WAN features to it."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The tool's pricing is not good.""The solution should include higher speed and lesser cost.""If anything, its reporting could be improved.""I would like to see a feature that blocks, increases, or decreases bandwidth capacity for devices.""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 can be more integrated with other brands.""While it is mostly scalable, there are some limitations.""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."

More Aruba Instant On Access Points Cons →

"Support could be a bit faster.""Huawei Wireless is not scalable. We have had a problem with the solution because it cannot integrate with other servers as the other competitors can.""Huawei Wireless can improve the signal, sometimes it becomes weak.""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.""There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes.""The manageability could be improved.""Technical support could be better.""I'd like to see some after-sales support. It's a little bit below the expectations we had."

  • "Huawei comes at a cheaper price than competitors like Cisco and Aruba."
  • "It is not monthly. It is a kind of perpetual licensing. We pay once depending on the kind of services we need to deliver. There are no licensing fees."
  • "Its price is very good. This wireless system totally costs about 30,000 euros, and some of the other solutions cost about 45,000 euros. It is a difference of 15,000 euros, which is quite a lot of money."
