We performed a comparison between Cisco Prime and Juniper Mist Wired Assurance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Management Applications solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Cisco Prime is a good tool for inventory monitoring and wireless management."
"The VLAN mapping function has been most impactful in simplifying our network management tasks."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Cisco Prime allows us to do a lot of functions with the users and it is flexible."
"The dashboard is a valuable feature. It's very clear, and the metrics make it easy to see the current network situation."
"It helps us manage and monitor analytics and fix issues."
"The installation is easy."
"We use this solution to troubleshoot our wireless systems, specifically regarding signal strength."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist Wired Assurance is zero-touch provisioning for query edge switches. You can connect the switch directly to your edge locations and then directly onboard, similar to the Cisco Meraki solutions."
"The product greatly improved our organization in terms of making configuration, deployment, and firmware upgrades easy for multiple automated devices."
"Lacking in integration with a SIEM tool."
"I want the tool to improve data visibility."
"I would rate the scalability of Cisco Prime a six out of ten. To scale up from a hundred to a thousand devices, the platform needs to be rebuilt logically. This process might require a downtime window and may involve changing the hardware or upgrading to a larger appliance."
"Cisco Prime could improve the notifications in the system. Having more details about what is happening would be useful, such as traffic numbers or who is connected. We can see them through the firewall controller, but it would be better if you can see them from one place."
"The solution needs to include centralized management that aligns with the Greenfield network and its focus on real-time, scenario-based applications."
"The onboarding process could be improved and developed to enhance compatibility for non-Cisco devices."
"The solution is not easy to configure."
"Cisco can only be used for Cisco environments and is not compatible with other vendors."
"The configuration aspect of the solutions is relatively new, but I have had positive experiences. However, for more advanced tasks, such as VXLANs on the EX platform, Juniper Mist Wired Assurance may not be the best option due to certain limitations. Nonetheless, it does have a CLI override feature for specialized configurations that cannot be done through the GUI."
"The platform’s monitoring tool is not up to the mark. It is not proactive enough and lacks some capabilities. Additionally, they should work on providing integration with other vendors."
