"Mist AI and Cloud have definitely improved the functioning of our organization. The access to the Internet, including its speed and reliability, has significantly improved."
"There are several valuable features. One of them is Cibas, and another one is Marvis."
"The Marvis feature of Mist AI, an artificial intelligence tool, is very useful."
"Regarding features, the solution seems to be very intuitive."
"Has an extremely good feature set."
"The cost is the most valuable aspect of this solution."

"I have a very good experience with the solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"The price could be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support and installation."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"The reporting tool in Cisco Wireless could improve. If I am trying to receive information about a client or user, it's cumbersome to retrieve the information on the controller system. If I'm trying to find out where a client's been, it's cumbersome. You need another tool for Historical logs, but it should be all in one."
"The classic Cisco wireless interface is difficult for users to learn."
"Cisco Wireless does not have a dashboard that would make it easier for people to manage the solution, such as Cisco Meraki where you are able to monitor the network through the dashboard and everything is visible making it easier."
"There should be an option for a wireless bridge that can be used to join two access points."
"The interface could be better."
"Older versions are complex to configure and implement."
"The solution could be cheaper and have a better web interface."
"No product can be a ten out of ten and there are some security issues."
"Mist AI and Cloud should improve its integrations."
"There is no local support for Mist in Brazil."
"There are some technical issues that may require attention"
"There seems to be different versions of standards used in the wireless access points. In the future, it would be helpful if the solution could come up with some kind of universal standard for all devices and all access points."
"Mist AI and Cloud should be marketed more and focus on making partners in the industry."
"Regarding opportunities for improvement in Mist, it is notable for its robust cloud portal and integration of artificial intelligence into various services, creating a highly efficient environment for work. However, a drawback lies in the cost associated with its WiFi offerings. With a pricing range of twelve hundred to fifteen hundred dollars for a single Access Point, exclusive of the subscription, it is acknowledged as a relatively expensive solution in the realm of WiFi services. Despite this drawback, the positive attributes of Mist make it a noteworthy option."
"Configuration could be improved."
"Sometimes it takes a lot of time for the access point to connect with the cloud."
