More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"There is a timeout feature that we have been asking for awhile.""The scalability has some limitations and quirks to it. I would like to be able to upgrade rather than replace the whole thing.""Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues.""I would like to see an improved level of stitching between IPs.""The technology goes end-of-life on us every year, which is why I am looking forward to vSTREAM.

Users want more information, such as the level of detail when doing a packet analysis. They want more detail to be able to isolate down to a specific point.""The single pane of glass feed still needs work."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "To capture more with the solution that we bought, you have to buy another InfiniStreamNG, and there are only four ports in the back."
  • "The scalability is good, but it comes at a cost. E.g., if you need 100 InfiniStream because you are sending gigs or terabytes of data to one InfiniStream, then you will have to purchase another InfiniStream, which are not cheap."
  • "It can be scalable. It just costs too much. With a company as big as ours, it gets too expensive to accommodate every single site."
  • "This product could be cheaper."
  • "The price is a little high."
  • "I would like it to be more scalable with less spend."
