"The most valuable feature of Aruba Instant is security."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Captive Portal, which we employ for our guest network.

This functionality allows us to assign different access privileges to users based on their roles within the organization."

"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"They could offer a new model for access points that are outdoors."
"I think they're missing roadmaps to the partners and the customers. They're releasing the products, but there are no quick updates to the partners and the customers."

"The product's high cost is an area where improvements are required."
"The solution should be able to support more users on the access points."

"This solution would be improved if they supplied free software controllers."
"Largely we're happy with the product, however, the firmware deployments could maybe be managed a little bit differently."
"Its scalability, UI, and security features could be better."
"The solution should improve stability."
"When I started to upgrade, the controller for Unbuntu was really struggling to start up, however, that has since been solved."
"The solution is stable but could improve."
"The coverage could be increased."
