"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Mist is the Virtual Network Assistant, powered by artificial intelligence."
"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 stability of the solution is very good."
"The access it grants to wifi is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The central management of multiple devices is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"The installation is very simple. We've limited the security feature, which I found valuable, and that allows two separate networks, one for the company and one for a guest network. During installation, it is very easy at that point to divide it."
"The quick setup and automatic code embedded in one access point is really useful."
"The products offer a lot of flexibility. Almost everything can be configured. It works very well for providing remote services."
"The management features are valuable."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"Ubiquiti WLAN is stable."
"The product is simple to use in terms of GUI and dashboard."
"The solution works well and in the short time I have used it, I've enjoyed its capabilities."

"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"Improving third-party integration is key for Juniper Mist's next release."

"It would be helpful to have even stronger security features to help protect against interference from other nearby access points that aren't part of our network."
"Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points’ support services need improvement."
"It is a software characteristic, and it is during the reboot. During the startup of the AP, the AP tells you that you are using the wrong password. However, I have realized that this is not true."
"There is a problem in the preferred portal access points when I'm using the portal."
"Aruba Instant is a simple and scalable solution that works well, but the costs you incur from access points could be cheaper."
"The tool's support quality has changed since HPE acquired it. It is also impossible to tell the log dates."
"I think they're missing roadmaps to the partners and the customers. They're releasing the products, but there are no quick updates to the partners and the customers."
"In a corporate environment or a larger network, where more advanced filtering or MAC-based filtering is needed, I don't think the IAPs would be sufficient."
"The captive portal through Facebook doesn't work."
"There is an issue with flooding to the Aruba access point on the ports."
"When I started to upgrade, the controller for Unbuntu was really struggling to start up, however, that has since been solved."
"The solution needs to improve robustness, security, and stability."

"The product's area of concern revolves around its lack of support."
"Switching devices requires reconfiguration from scratch."
"They could enhance their products by integrating cloud access into each device."
"I have never used cloud solutions. My first approach would be something related to the cloud, and backups on the cloud, and maybe an easier way to connect to it because I have an on-premises environment."
"The product must provide better warranties."
