Pros

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"Good end-to-end monitoring""We use the solution to meet the needs of the customer."

More CA Unified Communications Monitor Pros →

"It is a very valuable tool. It goes out and does a discovery, which is a great process of it. You could have something like a rogue DHCP server, and it will identify it, and then you can see to which switch port it is connected. It is quite an impressive tool. I really liked it because you didn't have to install an agent on anything. It would just go out and do its discovery. For me, that's great.""Gives us the ability to see our network."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"All the features and functions of the solution can be improved.""The solution should have automatic baseline detection."

More CA Unified Communications Monitor Cons →

"Its price can be improved. Their support can also be improved a little bit. In terms of features, it did everything I wanted it to do. With more features, I would have to start installing network agents or something else, and I don't want to have to install anything. This was the value for me about this device.""I would like a built-in tap feature which doesn't interfere with the network, and it allows you to see what is happening there."

  • "Its price was a bit excessive. The device that I had died. It is under warranty, and they want $20,000 for another one. I just don't want to spend that kind of money, so I'm trying to find an alternate solution. They have annual maintenance on it, which probably was 10% a year, so it all starts to add up."
