Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The tech who handles Extreme IQ tells me it's easy to use and learn. He felt like it was pretty intuitive. It comes with solid training materials. He also has talked about the security features that give you as much or as little control as you want.""What our customers like the most is that this device is so rugged. It has very good performance and throughput. Its console is very easy to use and has many features, which makes it different from its competitors. Cloud IQ has all the features built into the console, whereas other solutions require you to integrate multiple solutions with their consoles. You don't need to add anything extra with Cloud IQ. With this single solution, you can do almost everything.""The most valuable feature is the centralized management capability.""The support organization behind this product is extremely professional.""Integrated Firewall in every AP (with DPI inspection) is a killer feature and it is included already in the price of licence (with others, this feature is an add-on licence).""It's extremely easy to deploy. Even our access points are behind the net, not using real, public IP. We can easily add to the cloud. For deployment, we just need to let the access point take the DSCP from IP and then, even if it's not a requirement, we can see the serial number from the access points and add the serial number to the cloud directly.""ExtremeCloud IQ is integrated with the Ekahau tool so that you can log in to the ExtremeCloud IQ portal, upload the cloud plans, draw all the interiors, and plan the APs with the real-time AP position.""The feature that I like to most is unified management in a multitenant environment, where we can manage all our customers with thousands of devices (routers, switches, VPNs, and APs)."

"The most valuable feature is integrity management. I had some discussions with service providers, and they also agreed.""What's most valuable in Tripwire Enterprise is the ability to execute custom COCR rules that lets me fine-tune how I monitor Linux and Windows agents.""The most valuable feature is the integrity.""File monitoring is the most valuable feature of the solution.""We use Tripwire Enterprise as a tool to test the vulnerability of a network. That is the most valuable feature of the product for us.""Even if you change a single word in Notepad, it will let you know whether it was added, removed, or modified.""The product supports different platforms.""Its reporting features are great. It gives you an in-depth report. Its customization is also great, and it is working fine."

Cons
"The solution will show us that there are some issues, but when we try to find those issues, we can't see them.""From our perspective, we would love to see Aerohive provide faster feature enhancement in their Virtual Appliance to match the features with the cloud solution more quickly.""Certain features only exist or work in certain versions.""ExtremeCloud IQ’s user interface needs to be improved, and its current bugs need to be fixed.""Lacks cyber asset tracking.""There can be an improvement by incorporating two-factor authentication or multi-factor authentication for security. Advanced network access control features and application control features should be added to manage applications. Many customers are interested in managing data, such as setting data quotas for individual users.""Need port aggregation on the 2384 switches to take full advantage of ac on the APs. I understand that is on their product road map.""I would like to see a remote phone application for monitoring APs when on the road."

More ExtremeCloud IQ Cons →

"Cloud monitoring could be better. It would also be better if the company followed a pay-as-you-use model.""The initial setup is complex.""The main way that it can be improved is through better reporting.""An area for improvement in Tripwire Enterprise is stability, as my company had stability issues with the last few versions of the solution. Tripwire Enterprise has been a bit buggy.""The deployment with certain systems can be difficult and it needs to be simplified.""A lot of network devices need a custom integration.""It needs more local support from the OEM side. It would be great if this can be improved.""The Windows online integration license needs to be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Although the pricing is a bit high, I consider Aerohive to be well worth the money."
  • "Buy near the end of Q4 in order to get a deal."
  • "Bring the cost down."
  • "I would advise that you be sure to compare apples with apples. Many customers just look at the price per AP and licences, and compare that against other solutions. But, they do not look at the complete picture such as: TCO - how much the equipment will cost you over, say, seven years? Will the customer need to change complete infrastructure when they want to buy the newest hardware? Does support include a lifetime warranty and RMA?"
  • "For example, if you compare Aruba vs Aerohive, you need to check which licences from Aruba you need to match the functionality of Aerohive (usually you need at least three types of licences and a controller with redundancy). The same goes with Cisco, where you need buy additional licences for central management, firewall, spectral analysis, WIPS, PPSK, etc. Aerohive has a very simple model - one licence for all the functionalities - and you can believe that there are many. One licence makes it easy to maintain, scale, renew and you can plan your costs 10 years in advance."
  • "Start small and grow big. You can choose the basic Aerohive Connect free subscription solution and, later, if needed (in terms of functionality) you can upgrade to Aerohive Select."
  • "There are probably cheaper solutions but we invest for stability and performance for the longer haul."
  • "I did a multi-year license. It was a three-year license. It compares well with others in terms of the price. It is about a hundred dollars per year on a three-year scale."
  • More ExtremeCloud IQ Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The licensing depends on the equipment, how many devices and the types of devices."
  • "Cloud monitoring could be better. It could also be cheaper. It would be better if the company followed a pay-as-you-use model."
  • "Tripwire is more expensive than Netwrix."
