Juniper WLC Series Reviews

We primarily use the solution as a WiFi controller.

The solution is very stable.

There are good monitoring capabilities on offer.

We have found that the solution is quite scalable. 

The installation process is nice and easy.

Its cloud machine has AI and machine learning, and therefore, it can help ensure IT has good monitoring and quicker response time as well as good troubleshooting capabilities.

We would prefer it if the solution could be less expensive.

I've been dealing with the solution for eight years.

We have found the solution to be stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's very reliable. 

The solution is quite scalable. There are no limitations at all. 

We have five to ten different companies that use the solution and they are all different sizes. 

The customer service is okay. Mostly the client deals with it if they run into issues. 

The installation process is not overly difficult or very complex. It's nice and simple and we found it to be a straightforward process. It only took five minutes to get it up and running. I've very fast to set up.

I've handled the implementation myself. I didn't need a consultant or anyone else to assist me. 

The solution costs a bit too much. We would like it to be less.

Users need to pay a yearly licensing fee.

We are Juniper partners.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We've been very pleased with its capabilities so far. 

I would recommend it to others to use. The technology is fantastic.

The Scalability it has has to add up to 256 Wireless Access Points for future expansion.

Allows end users to roam the office and be productive wireless without being plugged into an Ethernet cable

Start with a small implementation and if it suits the needs for the business, then go for larger deployments.
