Extreme Wireless Access Points vs. Mojo Networks

The Extreme access point solution has been used in the cooperative scenario with VLANs for employees in access through 802.1x authentication and also for guests through the captive portal that allows access of people for a limited time and prior registration. The equipment has great performance and connection speed and supports a high density of users connected at the same time without lag and crashes. The management of this equipment is being carried out through software with cloud management and is accessed by our infrastructure team to configure and monitor alerts.

With the range of models that are available, you can deploy the Mojo solution in any size environment; no matter the venue. We have deployed the solution in small and large college dorms, fitness facilities, and smart home apartments, with no issues. I have never had an issue deploying the Mojos in any of these environments.

• Extremely easy to provision new devices, once the profiles are set up, due to centralized management
• Very quick provisioning of new devices, due to centralized management and predefined profiles

• Advanced guest wifi capabilities that integrate with our REWARDS platform.
• Enterprise-wide configurations with minimal effort.
• Creative team of engineers to customize aspects of the solution to our unique needs.

• In my experience, licensing has become a nightmare. Licensing must be tied to a device, they also won't let you activate used units from other companies if they are donated or purchased third-party.
• Customer service is outsourced overseas.
• In my experience, technicians are incentivized to close tickets quickly - whether the issue has been fixed or not - which can be frustrating to work with.

• For some reason they user VLAN 0 as the native VLAN. I am used to VLAN 1 being the native VLAN for all solutions I work with. I had to retrain my mind to understand that Mojo uses VLAN 0. It may be a minor detail, but it would be nice if they have VLAN 1 as the native, like other vendors.
• It would be nice to be able to create a predictive survey report using the web GUI.

It has worked for us as advertised with little technical issues. The system has been stable with no major downtime.

Support was always responsive and willing to help, but at times did not know when to call it and send a replacement to stop the bleeding. I respect that fact that they wanted to get the solution working, and the wanting to learn more and understand, but at times you cant do that at the expense of the customer.

The times I have needed to contact support, they were excellent. Making sure that the solution was operating at the level of what was expected, and taking the time to explain any features that I may have had a question about. They are customer-focused and strive to satisfy the customer every time.

The Aerohive wireless devices are comparable to Cisco's wireless solution, in regard to performance, features, and management. But the cost of utilizing Cisco Wireless Access Points versus using the Aerohive access points is staggering. Since our wireless access points do not maintain a constant heavy load, we chose a more cost effective solution and have not had many issues with them.

Easier configuration and advanced security features.

• Less downtime to our business units that use Aerohive
• Radios are very compatible with most wireless devices out today
• I spend less time managing Aerohive than any other wireless product

Incentivized

• Our total cost for providing guest wifi dropped significantly from a prior solution even while adding much needed security features.
