"The platform is valuable for bandwidth reduction."
"The tool is easy to configure due to the existing pre-configured templates. It is easy to manage compared to legacy systems, which takes time. We can complete a site within 30 minutes. The tool's best feature is outdoor onboarding. You need to bring the box to the site with the internet. It is a simple plug-and-play. The solution offers a zero-touch procedure."
"It has a nice graphic interface and it is easy to find information about effectively using the product because of the large user-base."
"I like the traffic monitoring because it meets the firewall protocols."
"We think it's a good solution for cloud security, where one has hybrid cloud. They have different cloud solutions like a Office 365 or Azure or Amazon. This is a good solution to control all the different cloud solutions you have in your family of hybrid clouds, from one panel. This is what the main feature we look for."
"The support, which is the direct support from Aruba, has shortcomings and needs to be improved."
"They have to implement more security with it. The security, mainly their firewall functions, have to be included in the firewall features."
"Their WAN optimization in terms of wireless connectivity doesn't have a very good cellular capability."
"If compared with Cisco, then Aruba's pricing is very aggressive."
"Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform’s stability and technical features need improvement."
"There are some functional limitations that could improve."
"In future releases, I would like to see security features, so Aruba might need some firewalls, like other vendors."
"We would like to have better features for path selection. For example, if we know the network is going to go down then we would like to set up an alternate route for data packets in real-time."
"It should be set up more specifically so that I only pay for what I want."
"Sometimes when using high availability, the second firewall does not come up immediately if the first one goes down."
"However, we would like them to add more integrations. We would appreciate a more open solution. They're quite good when you have the entire Fortinet ecosystem, but otherwise it's not as good of a solution."
