It's crucial. It's good to customize our information security how we like it and configure the solution to achieve the level of stability we need."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Networks Wireless WAN is that it is easy to configure. Additionally, with the same configuration with Cisco and Ruckus, we can receive 55 to 60 percent more out of Aruba Networks Wireless WAN."
"It's stable and reliable."
"From the performance perspective, I'm happy with the solution. Also, from the technical side, it seems to be pretty good."
"The most valuable feature is reliability."
"There is a clustering feature, so the APs immediately switch back to the next available controller. The users will not notice any impact and will feel connected to the network. They will not notice any disconnection."
"The product gives good stability and concurrency."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setup and deployment."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"What I found most valuable in Ubiquiti Wireless is that it's priced competitively, compared to other brands available in the market. From a price competitiveness standpoint, it's a product I would recommend. I also find Ubiquiti Wireless quite reliable, at least for me using it as a home access point, it seems to serve its purpose. I also like that with Ubiquiti Wireless, you can build a very modular network, so you could change out your router to use a Ubiquiti router if you want to. The solution also has gateway equipment and all, so I like the modular concept of Ubiquiti Wireless. Another feature I find valuable in the solution is monitoring. It is pretty good. For example, as a home user, I have the unified app on my computer, so I'm able to watch how my APs are performing."
"It's very easy to use. The hardware is very easy to use, compared to Microsoft. Microsoft is more complicated. It has software that is okay if you are familiar with it. In my opinion, Ubiquiti hardware is more heavy duty then Microsoft."
"One of the nice features is the backup version control."
"It offers fair pricing."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti Wireless is the ease of configuration."
"The failure rate is very low on these devices - I've had them installed for five years and have only lost one out of a hundred."
"Very simple, very basic setup for Ubiquiti Wireless. Its performance in a home or small business setting with fewer access points is fantastic."
"From the commercial-side the pricing side is fine but in other aspects, it could be lowered."
"It would be better for customers if Aruba provided more license options, like 5-year licenses"
"When it comes to configuring rules for file security tests, any issues that arise can be referred to as "glitches". Despite the extensive configurations required, the process itself is not overly complicated."
"The initial setup has a lot of options, which makes it very versatile yet very complicated to install. There should be two modes: a basic mode and then a more advanced mode to help make implementation easier. Most of the time, if it's a small installation, you don't need the complexity. You shouldn't need higher expertise in order to install a couple of access points in a single place."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing, it's quite a premium."
"The internet signal and the connection can be better."
"Device integration has room for improvement in Aruba Networks Wireless WAN."
"The price for the license could be a bit improved since it is the only area with an issue."
"The network setup could be a little easier and more straightforward."
"There's one feature missing and that is automatic channel assignment."
"Sometimes we have some micro breaks we do not know what causes them."
"They should make more advanced features for the power users. I am a technician and I am functional, but I do need some features that I find only in Microsoft."
"This solution should be more robust when it comes to connectivity and improve wireless technology."
"Its stability could be better."
"The product lacks to offer reliability to users."
"There is really nothing wrong with the product but there are ways the utility and features can be expanded to meet future demands."
