Experience seamless connectivity with top-notch roaming capabilities
The Aruba Wireless solution has excellent roaming capabilities, ensuring seamless connectivity. Once installed, Aruba Wireless works robustly without overheating issues. This is particularly effective compared to other products I've used, like FortiMonitor and FortiAPs, which sometimes heat up. I am very satisfied with the roaming feature, as it ensures connectivity when moving from one location to another. The product's stability, after setting it up, adds to its value.

Offers great control and visibility to users, along with availability on the cloud
The other solutions did not offer the visibility that Mojo Networks offered. During the rolling out of the installation process, you have to go through the on-premises model to be able to make some changes. If somebody needs to make necessary changes, you must go to the on-premises model with the initial product. With the cloud solution, you don't have to go for the on-premises model, as you can make the changes over the cloud. The stability offered by Mojo Networks is better than the other products available in the market since, with other tools, you need to keep restarting them frequently, and it may be required once or twice a day, especially if it is used as an enterprise solution or in an enterprise environment, where the traffic is too high, causing the build-up of a lot of cache memory, fill-ups, and SRAM, a reason why one will have to restart such products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Aruba Wireless offers a good user experience."
"​Stability and its ability to handle more devices has been an improvement for our organization.​"
"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."
"Basic initial setup is very easy when it comes to a new user on-premise.​"
"I really like the user interface."
"Aruba Wireless is stable."
"The functionality is very high and we can properly meet the clients' requirements."
"We were able to increase capacity very easily."
"Their Cognitive WiFi analytics (Mojo Aware) is the biggest feature on their dashboard. It helps us know where the problem, so we don't have to spend time with the customer diagnosing it."
"Initial setup was straightforward."
"The fact that they are autonomous and can function even without access to the management panel is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The initial setup was easy."
"We can see what the network is being used for or where problems may be."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"We just plugged it in and it worked. That just doesn't happen. We plugged it in and it worked and all 100 kids got on the test and started testing."
"The most important feature is ease of use. We can simply take an access point and plug it in, then it is automatically configured for us."
 

Cons

"The vendor should include multiple additional protocols"
"The bad things about the product are the price, the information about the product, and the time it takes to deliver the product."
"Lacks a heat map analysis and a cloud-based wireless controller."
"The access points could be cheaper. While the technical specifications are satisfactory, the access points are expensive."
"I had some problems with Wi-Fi coverage in the workshop, which required purchasing more devices."
"Because it's cloud-based, it takes time for the floor maps and the heat map to load."
"There is a lot of information for users about the product, but it needs to be better organized so that solutions are easier to find."
"Customer service really needs to be improved. If the customer support was better, I would recommend it to others more than I do now. Considering that you have to pay yearly for support, I expect a higher level of support."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"The user interface needs improvement. It could be a little bit more user-friendly."
"Compared to other OEMs, Mojo Networks or Arista faces a little bit of coverage issues. So, if we put the same dBm, the power of the other OEMs indicates much more extensive coverage compared to Mojo or Arista."
"The user interface could use improvement, and Mojo is working on it. The features and functions are in two different places, and they are in the process of moving them into one place."
"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."
"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."
"The implementation could be simplified. Right now it's a bit complex."
"Something that could be improved is the ability to easily and quickly see what speed someone is on and if there are any issues on the network. We are using the older software technology, so maybe their newest version is able to do that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Aruba is less expensive than Cisco."
"Aruba is comparable to competing solutions when it comes to price."
"Licensing is a one time purchase (only the cloud license has to be renewed, which is worth trying out).​"
"The price is low. There is an additional cost for maintenance."
"Aruba Wireless is very attractive cost-wise."
"In terms of pricing, the pricing for Aruba Wireless is not bad for large-sized companies, but for medium-sized companies, it's on the higher end, but because Aruba has a good company image, medium-sized companies still go with Aruba Wireless."
"The system was very good, but we needed to upgrade in order to adapt for our needs, and doing so with Aruba would have been more expensive. ​"
"The price of Aruba Wireless is higher than other products, but you'll get stability, performance, and functionality out of it. On a scale of one to five, I'm rating the price of Aruba Wireless a three."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
"There are other solutions, like Ubiquiti, that have lowered their prices, which sometimes makes the argument to go with them. However, we do not bake in the WiFi for other vendors into our managed services, because they do not meet our standard offering."
"We have a term that is renewed every three years."
"The pricing was a good value and substantially less than some of the other products that we looked at. In some cases, with some of the big names, this product was even close to half the price."
"Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
"They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
"The price of the solution is too high for our country."
