"The platform is valuable for bandwidth reduction."
"The most valuable feature of Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect is the boost."
"The file and data reduction capabilities are very good. Without it, we have a great deal of network congestion."
"We had several clients that were paying $7,500 a month for an MPLS line for one single 10 megabit circuit and we were able to take that from $7,500 a month down to $500 a month for two 10 megabits circuits that added redundancy where before they did not have redundancy and it gave them a much better throughput."
"At the moment, for us, it is a very good solution because it has all the features we need and it is not so expensive."
"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."
"First and foremost, it enables the customer to deploy high availability connections. This kind of solution enables them to deploy these HA connections for policies mostly automatically. It's a more automated approach than with other vendors."

"The most valuable feature is optimization."
"The technical support services are excellent."

"The license features should improve in the solution. For example, when you purchase VMware, it starts at a low level that has some functionality. When you want to expand, the difference in the price is substantial. I purchased the lower functional version for $4,000, and now if I want to upgrade, they ask me for $80,000. This is a $76,000 difference, there's no logic, but this is VMware."
"Reporting is something that they can improve on."
"They have to implement more security with it. The security, mainly their firewall functions, have to be included in the firewall features."
"This solution is suitable for small to medium-sized companies. If we have large-sized companies it is better to use Cisco or Palo Alto."
"In future releases, I would like to see security features, so Aruba might need some firewalls, like other vendors."
"More technical sessions should be offered for deploying the solution."
"Their WAN optimization in terms of wireless connectivity doesn't have a very good cellular capability."
"There are some functional limitations that could improve."
"The management menu should be simplified."
"The solution lacks sufficient security features."
"Aruba Orchestrator should implement dynamic certificate changes for security."
"The solution can be improved by lowering the cost and making it more user-friendly for first-time users."
"The initial setup is complex, depending on the overall planning for the entire environment."
"They could provide essential training to understand the product functionality."
