Find out in this report how the two Wireless LAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) is the ability to troubleshoot ports on the network. Additionally, when there is an update on the APs they are able to reboot quickly reducing downtime. Other solutions have a longer downtime when updates are done."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The product has valuable throughput capabilities. It also has an inbuilt spectrum analyzer for stable connectivity."
"The after-sales services are helpful."
"The web-based administration is what I find most beneficial."
"This solution is extremely user-friendly; it is very easy to configure and work with."
"Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is easy to deploy. The implementation can take two weeks to four months."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its range and stability."
"They all have controllers built in, and we manage them all with a web-based management tool."
"It is a stable and secure platform."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"Valuable features include Bonjour Gateway and the hardware antenna array."
"The controller is most valuable. Through Ruckus ZoneDirector, we can easily manage the websites and the web."
"Its high capacity is the most valuable. It is also very stable. It is way more stable than other platforms."
"It ensured our Internet service was always up, allowing us to serve our customers 24/7."
"The most valuable feature of Ruckus Wireless is its exceptional performance and reliability. The signal is highly reliable. We have not received a single complaint in the past year, which is a marked improvement from our prior equipment."
"We are able to quickly identify Rogue WAPs in our network and move to disconnect them immediately when Ruckus alerts us."
"At times of heavy network congestion, we can restrict the bandwidth available to clients either by SSID or at the client level, which helps cut down on our bandwidth costs."
"The solution is expensive."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"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."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"The solution’s technical support could be faster."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"The problem with this radio wireless technology is that it cannot compete in terms of bandwidth with the fiber optics at this moment. That's the biggest weakness."
"The solution should be scalable, offering better pricing options as we optimize the network for coverage, capacity, and quality"
"What could be improved in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is its efficiency in large areas because we noticed that there's a need to increase the APs in large rooms or spaces for the Wi-Fi to be more efficient. Another area for improvement in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is bandwidth management. This is a feature that Meraki has that allows you to control user bandwidth, so my company has a pilot project to test Meraki Wireless LAN. Bandwidth control is an additional feature I'd like to see in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN as that would make the solution better."
"The platform's cost needs improvement."
"We would like this product to have more information data sheets available. At present we cannot easily access details around the full capability of a piece of equipment."
"The capacity and coverage could be improved."
"I would like to see better mapping capability because it can be really difficult, especially if you are deploying on a remote island."
"Having support available that is more compatible with time zones in the United States would be helpful."
"It is extremely difficult to send videos in Ruckus live sessions. Zoom streaming, or using Teams Streaming live sessions to send videos, for example, could be more effective."
"We've had issues with the ISP, not enough bandwidth."
"The price has room for improvement."
"The initial setup could be more straightforward. It would be better if we could seamlessly integrate security tools like a firewall or IPS with Ruckus Wireless."
"Some customers have issues with the price because it's more expensive than Ubiquiti, but they can accept the cost because it's reliable and has more features."
"The switching could be improved. The active component requires a data center. Cisco and HPE have a complete solution for data centers. Ruckus has a core solution, but the data center aspect needs to be improved."
