Pros
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich.""The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence.""The solution is stable.""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 solution is pretty generic and easy to use.""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 AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."

"Huawei Wireless's most valuable feature is smart antenna, a combination of informative capabilities and advanced technology.""It can scale.""The product is simple and easy to use.""From an implementation perspective, it's easy. I rate it a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup, and ten is an easy setup.""It provides high-speed network connections.""We can use an access point to broadcast multiple SSIDs, assign dynamic VLANs, and configure dynamic access control lists (ACLs).""Installation is easy.""I am impressed with the tool's seamless integration."

More Huawei Wireless Pros →

"There are several valuable features. One of them is Cibas, and another one is Marvis.""If you compare wired versus wireless, it's convenient. You don't need to have one place for connectivity. You can move around and it's easier. Sometimes it's a hassle to work with wires, which is why wireless is so convenient.""Mist AI and Cloud is the best solution I have seen in the industry, especially from the artificial intelligence perspective, as it helps businesses.""The most valuable aspect is that they operate on small microservices, offering numerous open APIs that enhance the value of our Wi-Fi network. This flexibility allows us to optimize various aspects such as workforce planning and occupancy management. The platform is highly open in the market, providing robust APIs for seamless integration with other tools. Currently, we leverage these capabilities at a building site, incorporating IoT sensors to gather data. The collected data is stored in a centralized location, and we plan to use AI for analysis. This analysis will include insights on peak activity times, humidity levels, temperature variations, and other relevant metrics within the building.""The tool's best part is the GUI. It is user-friendly and fast due to AI features. The solution can help you fix things with AI, which is impressive.""I have a very good experience with the solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The AI deployment process involves adding access points and placing them in the designated area. The AI system automatically adjusts channel selection and transmission power without any issues with stability or throughput. It has improved network performance.""The most useful aspect of Mist AI and Cloud is automation capabilities."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation.""Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems.""The price could be better.""The solution is expensive.""Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"The security of the solution could be better in the future.""There could be a console port for demonstration or configuration purposes.""The scalability could be better.""Cloud integration needs to be improved.""While I am fine with the current licensing price, I would appreciate it to be more cost-effective.""The ongoing support and ongoing follow-up on customers is an area where the solution lacks.""They should include more security features in the solution.""The solution needs to include a captive portal."

More Huawei Wireless Cons →

"Configuration could be improved.""There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points.""The solution has various licensing policies. It will be easy to use if it is an open single license.""Currently, the solution lacks the ability to configure with other solutions from other vendors.""The solution doesn't provide mail notifications currently.""Mist AI and Cloud should be marketed more and focus on making partners in the industry.""If there's one thing I'd like to change, it's the pricing. They are quite expensive, but honestly, it's justified by the value they provide. However, for a simple Wi-Fi connectivity with basic security needs, there are alternatives in the market that offer comparable features at a more budget-friendly price.""The user experience should be improved. It's not user-friendly."
