Find out in this report how the two Wireless LAN solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"With Mist, every Wednesday they roll out new features."
"The solution is very secure."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"The most useful feature of Juniper Wireless AP is the reporting Marvis."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is Marvis, the AI-driven network management system."
"In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"The feature that I love the most is being able to broadcast different SSIDs with different protocol requirements. "
"The wireless controller and access points are valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it can work with many devices. It supports everything that we need it to."
"The main features of Aruba Wireless in my country is its popularity, long hardware warranty when compared to other solutions, and it integrates well with our network access control solution."
"With Aruba Wireless Controller, all our access points are connected to one controller. Through that controller, we can actually handle each access point; we can disconnect or connect that access point, and then we can tell, or see, or allow how many users are, or should be, connected through that access point."
"Its graphical user interface is designed to be user-friendly, making work more efficient."
"The product has been pretty stable...The product is scalable."
"The most valuable features of Aruba Wireless are the seamless feature and the concurrent user."
"It is a stable and secure platform."
"They all have controllers built in, and we manage them all with a web-based management tool."
"It offers features that are essential for an efficient and high-performance wireless LAN deployment, where capacity, coverage, and quality are optimized, and frequency bands are selected based on the specific needs of the network."
"The after-sales services are helpful."
"What I like best about Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is that it's easy to configure, has no licensing hassle, and is a controller-based solution."
"Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is easy to deploy. The implementation can take two weeks to four months."
"The web-based administration is what I find most beneficial."
"It provides good support remotely, and it's very easy to configure."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"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 AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"The ARM functionality does not always seem to perform how I would like. In some cases, I have had to manually assign channels to avoid channel confusion."
"The logging is hard to read when troubleshooting issues."
"What I would like to have with these kinds of devices is the most enhanced security. For example, if I could apply security from wireless devices, that would be great. I would also like more enhanced reports on user adoption, who is getting what bandwidth."
"We would like to declare a specific number of devices that an employee or a user can use to access their Wi-Fi."
"Better integration with equipment from other vendors would ease the deployment process in some cases."
"The coverage, concurrent user life, and visualization are the most valuable features of these solutions."
"The vendor should include multiple additional protocols"
"There has been a recent decrease in the level of support."
"What could be improved in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is its efficiency in large areas because we noticed that there's a need to increase the APs in large rooms or spaces for the Wi-Fi to be more efficient. Another area for improvement in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is bandwidth management. This is a feature that Meraki has that allows you to control user bandwidth, so my company has a pilot project to test Meraki Wireless LAN. Bandwidth control is an additional feature I'd like to see in Cambium Networks Wireless LAN as that would make the solution better."
"Not a lot of technical engineers are familiar with Cambium Networks Wireless LAN. They are familiar with implementing and using other solutions such as Aruba. Therefore, Cambium Networks needs to be more visible in the marketplace."
"We would like this product to have more information data sheets available. At present we cannot easily access details around the full capability of a piece of equipment."
"The product pricing needs improvement."
"I believe there's room for improvement in the configuration options for point-to-point setups directly from the cloud management interface. Currently, the process feels a bit clunky—you monitor the unit in the cloud but need to make configuration changes by editing a text file, then downloading it back to the unit. This method can be error-prone, as even a small mistake in the text file could disrupt the unit's configuration."
"The capacity and coverage could be improved."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"If they could include some sort of web filtering, in-built antivirus, anti-malware, and data stream scanning in the next release."
