Executive SummaryUpdated on Oct 31, 2024

Huawei Wireless and Juniper Mist Wireless Access Points compete in the wireless networking category. Huawei Wireless has an advantage in pricing, making it affordable for users seeking WiFi 6 systems, while Juniper Mist offers advanced AI-driven network management that appeals to businesses needing sophisticated network control.

Features: Huawei Wireless provides an affordable WiFi 6 system with efficient coverage and scalability, supporting seamless roaming and strong IoT integration. Juniper Mist is distinguished by its AI-driven network management, centralized management, and AI-based insights, catering to users who prioritize ease of troubleshooting and robust security features.

Room for Improvement: Huawei Wireless needs to enhance its cloud management, visibility controls, and technical support response times. Additionally, increasing third-party integration could be advantageous. Juniper Mist could improve its third-party integration, especially with non-Juniper products.

Umer Farooq - PeerSpot reviewer
Customizable and has many unique features, such as encryption, spatial streams, and smart antennas
The initial setup for Huawei Wireless is easy, so it's a nine out of ten for me. It takes six to eight weeks to deploy the product. Initially, as I'm in pre-sales, I generate RFPs and the response when a customer has issued a published tender. I'll check the requirement, and then I'll map it to the Huawei product. I'll then make the Statement of Compliance (SOC) and select the proper model. Next, I'll send the information and document to Huawei for technical vetting. After technical vetting, I'll request Huawei to share information on costs and other vetted documents I need to complete, and once completed, I'll submit the documents. It'll then take approximately ten to fifteen days. Deploying Huawei Wireless requires teamwork because the deployment process involves different people and teams, such as the project manager, post-deployment, and pre-sales teams, to deploy the product completely.

Gyan Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good performance, good solution and smooth implementation
I do have a suggestion: 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. If there are access points from other brands installed nearby; they can cause interference and disrupt the range of our Mist access points. So, the security features could be stronger, especially in terms of authentication. The connectivity is excellent, but security needs improvement. In future releases, integrating more AI features would be beneficial. If Mist had stronger AI features, it could provide better security against network threats and cyberattacks. So, this solution still needs to improve its AI capabilities. It would be great if the AI could improve the range of the access points, and auto-protect functionality should be there to avoid interference by other nearby access points and enhance threat detection. In the future, I'd like to see stronger threat detection features integrated with Mist, as well as better detection of nearby access points that might cause interference.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Right now, my company made a one-time purchase of Huawei Wireless. It depends, but in most of the projects where customers buy hardware with some software, it's a one-time purchase. Customers pay a yearly fee for other projects for support and additional software features, such as email protection firmware updates for cybersecurity. You'll also receive information about the latest attacks and get more protection if you pay an additional fee apart from the standard license fee. You'll also get an additional warranty for Huawei Wireless, a yearly contract."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive product. I'm rating it as one out of ten, price-wise."
"The price is good for the solution and there is a license required."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"Huawei Wireless is an expensive solution."
"It is not monthly. It is a kind of perpetual licensing. We pay once depending on the kind of services we need to deliver. There are no licensing fees."
"I rate Huawei Wireless' pricing a five out of ten."
"Its price is very good. This wireless system totally costs about 30,000 euros, and some of the other solutions cost about 45,000 euros. It is a difference of 15,000 euros, which is quite a lot of money."
More Huawei Wireless pricing and cost advice
"The solution is expensive."
"If a customer has a budget of around five lakhs in Indian currency, they can afford Juniper products."
"The pricing is fair."
"We pay maybe 1000 SEK per year, per access point."
"I rate Juniper Mist's pricing a ten out of ten since it is expensive."
"I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"Juniper Wireless AP's price is a little more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"The pricing is too high."
