Executive SummaryUpdated on Oct 31, 2024

Ubiquiti WLAN and Mojo Networks compete in the WLAN market. Ubiquiti has an advantage in cost-effectiveness, ease of deployment, and hybrid environment handling, while Mojo stands out with advanced security features and analytics.

Features: Ubiquiti WLAN is known for its ease of deployment, providing a simple management interface, and offering robust network management capabilities. It efficiently handles hybrid environments, providing straightforward installation and strong performance. Mojo Networks offers advanced security features such as WIPS technology, a cloud-based architecture saving on hardware costs, and cognitive WiFi analytics that enhance network visibility and security.

Room for Improvement: Ubiquiti WLAN could refine its signal strength, troubleshooting tools, and support responsiveness. Users note intrusive updates and potential for cloud controller improvement. Mojo Networks can improve the simplicity of its management portal and support responsiveness. Consolidating platforms and enhancing application security features would also be beneficial.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Ubiquiti WLAN offers predominantly on-premises solutions and also supports cloud requirements, praised for easy deployment yet needing more responsive support. Mojo Networks, with its hybrid cloud approach, is appreciated for community support and documentation but faces challenges with technical support and implementation complexity.

Pricing and ROI: Ubiquiti is recognized for cost-effectiveness with no ongoing license fees, strong ROI for small to medium deployments. Mojo Networks, although more expensive, provides good value for its advanced features. Mojo's recurring cloud service license presents higher recurring costs but offers a lower upfront cost compared to leading brands, giving good ROI for security-focused enterprises.

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.

CEO at Forward Thinking Network Consultancy Ltd

Useful for network management and far more competitive than the other leading American brands

As an importer and distributor, we don't spend any time installing Ubiquiti WLAN products ourselves. We only resell the products to installers and don't do any installations directly. From my knowledge, though, the installation process is extremely straightforward. We get very few technical questions from our customers who do the installations. Based on our experience as distributors, I can say that virtually every installation we deal with now is centered around the UniFi Gateway. Although we don't handle installations directly, more companies rely on Ubiquiti gateways instead of standard options like FortiGate switches as routers. With the new UDM Pro Max product, Ubiquiti WLAN has covered the whole spectrum from home installations to the largest possible enterprise installations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Security is top-notch with WIPS (Wireless Intrusion Prevention System)."

"It has given us a huge leg-up when competing with other managed service providers who use different vendors because of the visibility it gives us to customers' traffic for troubleshooting purposes."

"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 security is a valuable feature."

"The cloud-based architecture of the controller is valuable because it obviously saves on my hardware costs."

"Built-in guest analytics and advanced guest portal features allow our customers to create a guest experience which is typically only available with complex and expensive third-party software."

"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."

"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."

More Mojo Networks pros

"It is similar to the switches, where it is one of those things where it just works. They are very reliable."

"The initial setup process was relatively straightforward, with only minor challenges typically caused by user errors, such as password mismatches."

"would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. It is very scalable."

"For me, the ease of configuration is a valuable feature."

"The solution is not complex to deploy."

"The most beneficial thing about Ubiquiti is that it is simple to deploy."

"Ubiquiti WLAN's best feature is the free controller system software."

"Ubiquiti WLAN is a reliable, stable, and robust solution."

More Ubiquiti WLAN pros

Cons

"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 distribution can be improved, particularly in this part of the world."

"The renewal costs that come with it are very expensive."

"The solution is a bit pricier than Cisco."

"The setup was complex."

"The customer service and support took a lot of time to come on the troubleshooting call."

"The RF signalling and data analytics parts should be improved."

"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."

More Mojo Networks cons

"The support needs improvement. The official support is kind of complex. It's not that straightforward compared to Cisco and Aruba."

"When they release new products, you should know if there backward compatibility, or do you have to replace the entire forklift, It is useful to understand their strategy and where they are headed."

"If they can integrate or release a single platform because, currently, there are two different platforms for switches and routers. So, maintaining just one unified platform, like, for example, unifying the models or brands, and avoiding separate platforms for edge switches, edge routers, and other Ubiquiti products, would simplify the integration and implementation process."

"There is room for improvement in providing the flexibility to change the default management VLAN from VLAN one to another for enhanced security."

"I think the main area for improvement with Ubiquiti WLAN is that they need to be far more specific in explaining the advantages of one product versus another. They have many access points - over 30. We often get questions about the right product for specific circumstances, and it's difficult to answer them clearly."

"I have found they need to work on the stability of the solution."

"Ubiquiti WLAN is not a cheap solution."

"The solution is stable but could improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"Since they have only the cloud and on-premises platform, the price looks good compared to the other OEMs like Cisco and Ruckus. For one of the Wi-Fi 6 access points for five years, they might be charging 20,000 to 25,000 INR."

"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."

"The cost is a one-time fee."

"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."

"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."

"The price of the solution is too high for our country."

"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."

More Mojo Networks pricing and cost advice

"Ubiquiti WLAN is fairly well priced and available as a one-time purchase."

"Ubiquiti WLAN is less expensive than Ruckus, but its price could be improved to make it more affordable and accessible."

"When comparing the price of Ubiquiti WLAN to Aruba the price is reasonable."

"Ubiquiti WLAN is cheap. It can work without licensing."

"The software to control it is free. The license is when we buy the Cloud Key."

"This solution is reasonably priced."

"The tool's price is good and falls somewhere in the middle."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
