Pros
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""Overall, we've been very pleased with the performance.""With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features.""You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment.""The simplicity is great.""The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs.""The artificial intelligence feature is very good.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pros →

"The deployment is easy.""The access it grants to wifi is the solution's most valuable feature.""The cost is low, and there is controller-less architecture.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that the tool offers a ZTP feature.""Aruba Instant is easy to manage.""Aruba's mobility features, which facilitate seamless switching between wireless access points, are also quite impressive. Users don't even notice the transition, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted experience.""The quick setup and automatic code embedded in one access point is really useful.""The tool's most valuable feature is Captive Portal, which we employ for our guest network. It enables us to create a separate virtual subnet for guests, ensuring their network traffic remains isolated from our office network. Another valuable feature is its role-based access control. This functionality allows us to assign different access privileges to users based on their roles within the organization."

More Aruba Instant Pros →

"The security is a valuable feature.""We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be.""It's scalable. You don't have to configure an access point. Literally, if I needed a new one, I just take it right out of the box, go plug it into our network. It finds our Mojo network, and then it talks to the other access points that are close to it, and then it literally adopts the policies, and meshes itself in our network.""Initial setup was straightforward.""Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System).""It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product.""The initial setup was easy.""We have found Mojo to be critical for us because of its patented security and its wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS). It is unique in the market."

Cons
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""The solution is expensive.""Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited.""I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The meshing could use improvement but aside from that nothing else really needs improvement.""The support offered by Aruba is slow.""Technical support needs improvement. We use the forum for technical support assistance, but it's not enough. If you're talking with a technician, they're in India. They cannot give you the service that you need. Sometimes have problems with some personal services and technical support is not helpful in this area.""I believe there's room for improvement in monitoring, especially when troubleshooting issues. Currently, there's limited intelligence around monitoring. It needs to improve stability and scalability.""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.""They should enhance reporting and add more features.""The only issue we've had is getting equipment supplies. The availability of the APs that I want to use has been an issue. It took almost two months to get them the first time. I've ordered a few more for another client, and they're still on back order. It has been over a month now.""Aruba Instant is a simple and scalable solution that works well, but the costs you incur from access points could be cheaper."

More Aruba Instant Cons →

"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco.""My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge.""The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​""Further expanding the API and access to even more diagnostics, as I have found a few limitations when I am dealing with them right now.""Compared to other OEMs, Mojo Networks or Arista faces a little bit of coverage issues. So, if we put the same dBm, the power of the other OEMs indicates much more extensive coverage compared to Mojo or Arista.""Needs greater simplicity in the management portal. Currently, the Mojo portal presents different “apps” to configure the devices, create splash pages, configure security settings, and monitor the network. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”.""The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call.""The setup was complex."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay maybe 1000 SEK per year, per access point."

  • More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Avoid the Central cloud license if you can."
  • "I purchased the hardware and there are no monthly or yearly licenses to buy."
  • "We only pay for the support and the contract licenses from Aruba Instant."
  • "The licensing cost is somewhere around $20,000."
  • "It is not expensive. Its price is fair. You get many features with the normal licensing. If I look at Cisco, it is very expensive if I need similar things."
  • "The cost was affordable."
  • "Some aspect of the price of Aruba Instant is very economical because if the customer is requiring more features the customer needs to pay a higher amount."

  • More Aruba Instant Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
  • "Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
  • "They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
  • "There are other solutions, like Ubiquiti, that have lowered their prices, which sometimes makes the argument to go with them. However, we do not bake in the WiFi for other vendors into our managed services, because they do not meet our standard offering."
  • "The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at. In some cases, with some of the big names, this product was even close to half the price."
  • "The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
  • "In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
  • "We have a term that is renewed every three years."
