We performed a comparison between Aruba Instant On Access Points and Cambium Networks Wireless LAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."In terms of reporting, in terms of all the user reports, it's very rich."
"It provides private network access, helping us protect our company’s devices."
"The solution is very secure."
"The AI capabilities of Mist Wireless are superior to other OEMs."
"The artificial intelligence feature is very good."
"You can easily monitor, manage, and cover all your IT equipment."
"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 solution is stable."
"It's super user-friendly."
"Its technical support is excellent."
"The solution is scalable."
"The coverage Aruba provides across the physical area is much better. Most probably because of the new technology, the 4x4 antenna, and everything around it. It's just a much better, easier to use, and easier to manage product."
"The solution has fast deployment and easy setup. There is no security PIN for this account."
"I would rate the stability of this solution a ten out of ten."
"It's really easy to set up. And, you don't have to pay for the cloud solution. That's really interesting for our clients. And the other thing is, the roaming is also quite good."
"The product is scalable. It has 20 users."
"The after-sales services are helpful."
"It is a stable and secure platform."
"The product has valuable throughput capabilities. It also has an inbuilt spectrum analyzer for stable connectivity."
"Cambium Networks Wireless LAN is easy to deploy. The implementation can take two weeks to four months."
"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."
"It provides good support remotely, and it's very easy to configure."
"They all have controllers built in, and we manage them all with a web-based management tool."
"This solution is extremely user-friendly; it is very easy to configure and work with."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"The pricing is very high in the Indian market."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."
"The pricing should be made cheaper."
"The solution is expensive."
"Juniper Wireless Access Points (AP Series) could improve if the MIST platform had a built-in master key. This would be an advantage."
"When there are a lot of people connected, especially during video streaming demonstrations, the connection can get a bit choppy."
"I believe there's room for improvement in the validation process, especially for customers facing compliance issues when managing access points from the cloud. It would be beneficial if the access points could also be managed from an on-premises controller. Regarding additional features, customers express interest in enhancing the controller, specifically improving the capability to manage a higher number of access points from the same controller. This feature is crucial for better scalability. Another feature that customers would appreciate is the ability to increase the number of access points. However, the current process for obtaining this permission can be time-consuming, and customers would like to see improvements in this regard."
"When I first deployed the solution, I couldn't use a tagged VLAN for the management. It might already have been fixed in a recent firmware upgrade."
"I would like to see a feature that blocks, increases, or decreases bandwidth capacity for devices."
"It is suitable for smaller organizations, but it may not be the best choice for large enterprises."
"The limited functionality of the mobile app restricts its use primarily to small and medium-sized setups, making it less suitable for enterprise-level solutions."
"The product's machine or equipment can cater to around 20 connections and cannot go beyond 50 simultaneous connections, because of which I think the tool's scalability is limited."
"While it is mostly scalable, there are some limitations."
"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."
"The solution should be scalable, offering better pricing options as we optimize the network for coverage, capacity, and quality"
"The solution’s technical support could be faster."
"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."
"The problem with this radio wireless technology is that it cannot compete in terms of bandwidth with the fiber optics at this moment. That's the biggest weakness."
"Cambium Networks Wireless LAN should improve its pricing."
"The product pricing needs improvement."
