"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"The simplicity is great."
"The solution is stable."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"It has improved overall IT efficiency across the board."
"There is no problem with downtime."
"Scalability has been one of the easiest aspects of the Aruba Instant product line. As long as the models are compatible, you can simply connect it to your network and it will learn the settings from the other APs on the network and join the AP network."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Wireless is multi-tenancy."
"I really like the user interface."
"We have three wireless networks: One for employee use, one for guest use, and one for our warehouse use, which uses MAC authentication. These wireless networks just simply work, they do not fail. The IAP-205 devices are very strong with great range. Very durable equipment; it always works."
"This is the second time I've implemented and installed this solution and I think it is outstanding. The support is excellent and so is the hardware. We don't need much support because nothing really goes wrong."
"Installation is relatively easy."
"It's pretty good as compared to other vendors."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"In terms of performance, Juniper switches have a more user-friendly interface and more features than Cisco products."
"I like the VLAN capabilities, and the Junos interface is easy to use."
"Juniper switches are smart and we have all the features that we want. You can rollback to the previous version if you make any mistake during configuration. This is not possible in Cisco."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Ethernet Switches is the public remote configuration option. If you make a mistake in the configuration you can roll it back to the previous configuration automatically after a set time frame increment, such as five or more minutes. In all the other competitors once you press to enter the new configuration is already written in. You cannot roll it back automatically."
"In terms of performance, Juniper switches have a more user-friendly interface and more features than Cisco products."
"The most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches are the simple configuration and ruggedness."
"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"One area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is its dashboard or interface because in some cases, it's not as easy to use as it should be, but overall, it's okay. Pricing for the product is also on the higher side. Another area for improvement in Aruba Wireless is technical support because it's hard to reach when issues arise and the speed of answer could be faster. Other areas for improvement in the product include integration and configuration."
"The Return Material Authorization procedure is time-consuming and needs improvement."
"Customer service really needs to be improved. If the customer support was better, I would recommend it to others more than I do now. Considering that you have to pay yearly for support, I expect a higher level of support."
"Aruba needs to be more competitive with newer products. Their legacy makes that more difficult for them."
"If you want a centralized management system that is able to manage all your networking devices such as the wireless, the switch, the routers, and the firewall, then Aruba may not be the one, because Aruba doesn't do firewalls."
"Aruba Wireless could improve the interface, it does not have a smart web interface. Other solutions have smart web interfaces, such as Cisco Meraki."
"We're using the Aruba Sensor, but sometimes the sensor isn't talking to AirWave or the AP. If something happens, we need to receive an email directly from the sensor, but the controller doesn't know. If there's something like the high channel utilization from the sensor we send to the controller, the controller can change the channel because they're all in the same environment."
"We needed the help of network consultants to complete the setup for us."
"I would like the ability to operate with other operating systems."
"Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches is not cheap. The tool needs improvement in UI."
"Their web GUI interface needs to be a lot better, especially when compared to HP. The command line is good, but you have to know how to get around it. The GUI is clunky and very slow."
"The stability of this solution should be improved."
"All Juniper documentation is terrible."
"They should integrate VPN functionality with the solution."
"The packet channelizing feature should be improved."
"More security could be provided, especially with the rising cyber-attacks in business organizations."
