Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use.""The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system.""It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices.""In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich.""The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis.""The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs.""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 artificial intelligence feature is very good."

"The setup was easy.""The security is a valuable feature.""I found that It's really good when comparing it to any other product or it is much better in terms of features that the customer requires.""The most valuable features are the roaming profile, the mesh, and the performance.""The most valuable features of this solution are its speed, reliability, and integration with the firewall.""At the moment, particularly with the COVID-19 situation, the most valuable feature is probably the IPsec VPN, which is easy to implement with Fortinet.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the management.""The Fortinet FortiWLM system can be controlled through the cloud controller, which is convenient when the solution is not installed in our environment, as it allows us to manage the entire WiFi or access points and provides more adaptability."

More Fortinet FortiWLM Pros →

"The technical support for the solution is very helpful.""The configuration is simple and the reports can be automated.""The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs.​""The features that I like the most are the visibility and the firewall, which is very good.""It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product.""Built-in guest analytics and advanced guest portal features allow our customers to create a guest experience which is typically only available with complex and expensive third-party software.""The most valuable feature is the seamless connection between the end-user on the wireless side.""Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."

Cons
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement.""They should include SD-WAN features to it.""The solution is expensive.""The pricing should be made cheaper.""Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage.""Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems.""The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location.""Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."

More Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points Cons →

"One of the main features that I see as lacking in any of the Fortinet products is the reporting. If you want to have proper, end-to-end reporting, you must purchase the FortiAnalyzer... If Fortinet could offer some better, built-in reporting, that would be a point of improvement.""Technical support is very poor. We are not satisfied with the technical support because there is not any direct person from Fortinet for any troubleshooting, which we expected.""In the next release, they could improve by adding a controller-less server, or architecture that is provided in other solutions, such as Aruba. This would be a great benefit for customers.""There is very little publicly available information about Virtual Cell and Single Channel Architecture. Promotion of the overall technology is limited as well. Being more vocal about a product that has many advantages would go a long way to eliminating a lot of the confusion and negative perception about Virtual Cell and Single Channel Architecture.""Areas for improvement would be the compatibility with Apple products and cross-platform integration.""Cost is something that could be improved, but you have to pay for what you get.""The range needs some improvement and also the stability.""The guest management features need to be improved by adding automation."

More Fortinet FortiWLM Cons →

"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly.""The ​RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved.​""The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call.""My only complaint about this product is its availability. Not many people can stock it and ordering from overseas is a challenge.""Needs greater simplicity in the management portal. Currently, the Mojo portal presents different “apps” to configure the devices, create splash pages, configure security settings, and monitor the network. This can be confusing, although Mojo has made great strides in combining these into “Aware”.""The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex.""The setup was complex.""They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay maybe 1000 SEK per year, per access point."
  • "Juniper Wireless AP's price is a little more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
  • "The pricing is something Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) can work on. The pricing is very high compared to the competition."
  • "The pricing is too high."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "I rate Juniper Mist's pricing a ten out of ten since it is expensive."
  • "I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
  • "The pricing is fair."

  • "Licensing has become easier. There is no longer a per-AP license needed on the controller."
  • "If a customer already is a FortiGate customer, the cost to go to the FortiAP is incredibly affordable, because you already have the controller."
  • "For indoor access points, there is a one-time cost, upfront, whereas outdoor access points have an annual fee."
  • "Fortinet would do something with their pricing model to attract smaller business users and eliminate the mandatory service contracts."
  • "There is a perpetual license required for this solution and the price could be reduced."
  • "Support contracts typically cost approximately $100.00 per year."
  • "To save yourself from increased setup and maintenance costs, I highly recommend undertaking a proper site survey from the beginning."
  • "Licensing costs are reasonable. There are so many different types of licenses with Fortinet, but the licensing and the 24/7/365 support are so reasonable that I automatically include it with every transaction. I never line item it without it. There are no additional costs."

  • "Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
  • "Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
  • "They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
  • "There are other solutions, like Ubiquiti, that have lowered their prices, which sometimes makes the argument to go with them. However, we do not bake in the WiFi for other vendors into our managed services, because they do not meet our standard offering."
  • "The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at. In some cases, with some of the big names, this product was even close to half the price."
  • "The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
  • "In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
  • "We have a term that is renewed every three years."
