"The solution is pretty generic and easy to use."
"In terms of the most valuable features, I like the integration with the fabric. The network fabric completely integrates with wireless as well."
"It provides seamless connectivity if you move around."
"The solution is easy to use and manage. Overall it is very simple to understand and users do not know it is a cloud solution."
"ExtremeWireless provides us with enterprise-level authentication methods at an excellent cost. It supports all the latest authentication methods. Another advantage is the built-in DHCP server. We don't need third-party DHCP servers to get the IPF."
"It's cloud-based and very easy to deploy."
"The stability of the solution has been fine."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"ExtremeWireless is a powerful solution with good integration. It works perfectly for us."
"A good management tool that can be managed through the cloud or firewall."
"Unlike the Cisco solution that needs a dedicated wireless controller outside of a firewall, SonicWall has everything in one box. Fortinet is close to it."
"The platform's most valuable feature is the ability to provide cloud access to configure and manage devices."
"If you want to do more specific stuff, it's a bit limited."
"Enrolling into the tool is a tedious process."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."

"The product should include adaptive Wi-Fi to show a more accurate location."

"ExtremeWireless support isn't very good."
"The current product line is very high-level and is well suited for enterprise-level organizations, but they need a more cost-effective solution for smaller businesses."
"The main area for improvement is the company's local visibility."
"The ExtremeWireless WiNG Access Point on-premise is not as good as the cloud and many of my customers are switching. It is easier for my clients to manage everything from the cloud. I currently use a model of the controller that does not support any cloud functionality."
"In the next release, I would like to see more security features."
"The reports could prove in ExtremeWireless. However, we are in the early stages of use and we might be able to configure them better."
"It is a subscription model, so it is maybe a bit pricey."
"We have a lot of overlapping wireless networks with a lot of cheap equipment that does not run on any rules or regulations. The best way to improve the wireless network, like in SonicWaves, is to defeat these networks by isolating, preventing them, or overcoming their wireless signal. We try to do that, but I live near an airport, and the AirPortRadar glitches my wireless network every nine seconds."
"The product's pricing is high and could be improved."
"Integrating with the firewall and management console was a little complex."
