Considered Both Products	HPE Juniper Access Points CS Chris Sexton Network Admin Chose HPE Juniper Access Points I initially selected HPE Juniper Access Points on the recommendation of a vendor I trust. I previewed the Mist console and liked what I saw. On subsequent purchases, it was a no brainer to stick with them because it has worked out so well. My only concern is how much things … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Technician Chose HPE Juniper Access Points Less down time and easier interface Incentivized Helpful? RE Robbie Evans Assistant IT Director Chose HPE Juniper Access Points Mist has more features than meraki in regards to wireless management. Adding devices is still simple and licensing is much easier to undertsf Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Administrator Chose HPE Juniper Access Points I've used a variety of other APs and WLAN systems. Juniper provides an outstanding product and their support is top notch. The Mist portal is intuitive for most admins that have an intermediate understanding of WLANs. The product is very reliable, and they provide value in … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Director Chose HPE Juniper Access Points We deploy HPE Juniper Access Points in the busy busy busy areas. The Ruckus devices are just in for the long haul because that's what we had to start with. As they die off we would go HPE Juniper Access Points. Incentivized Helpful? JB Jonathan Butler Systems Administrator Chose HPE Juniper Access Points Meraki and Juniper both utilize cloud-based controllers. This enables easier configuration without requiring local controller hardware. Both Meraki and Juniper utilize AI to help manage their devices and make adjustments to keep the system running at optimal performance. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose HPE Juniper Access Points I say Meraki UI's is more friendly. Also, their layer 7 visibility is a lot better. You can get more details about the devices on Meraki's UI vs MIST UI. Meraki is more expensive though. Omada is entry for SMB. Its a nice system but buggy. I would not go back to Omada for our … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose HPE Juniper Access Points I prefer Juniper. Configuring the extreme environment was odd and clunky. Three years after we deployed Extreme I got informed the virtual controller we were using was end of life. The APs were still good, just the controller was end of life. I had to deploy a new virtual … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose HPE Juniper Access Points Much easier to manage them and configure them. When we used Aruba central to manage the newer AP's, it seemed a little clunky and didn't always like the placement or what port it was connected to. Troubleshooting Juniper AP's is much easier with Mist over using Aruba Central. … Incentivized Helpful? Caleb Whorton Technology Director Chose HPE Juniper Access Points Juniper and the Mist console are far superior to access points and admin consoles I have worked with in the past. You can utilize the Mist effectively even if you don't have a background in networking or a lot of experience early on without a real learning curve. So far, they … Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	Juniper Networks The Mist portal-controlled Juniper APs are great in an environment where clients are relatively stationary. Coverage is fantastic, and throughput is really good. I would be more concerned about placing these in a distribution-type warehouse where clients frequently roam between APs. While I've not had any issues, I could see where some APs might become sticky due to the cloud-controlled nature. In my experience, a local controller would be better suited to environments like that. I'm also concerned that support and quality may suffer due to the HPE merger.

Pros	Juniper Networks Juniper AP45 coverage is great. We have one deployed in a sub-optimal manner (too high, too much space for a single AP), and we still have great coverage. The APs are easy to configure via the Mist Portal. You can create sitewide templates, as well as templates for subsets of APs. The APs are reliable. We don't have much trouble out of them. I can count on 1 hand how many times I've had to reboot one in the past year. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Juniper Networks I wish there was a mobile app that allows configuration and health status checks The MIST UI could use some improvements - some things take more than 1 click to access Marvis doesn't impress me. I ask it questions and sometimes it doesn't respond or understand Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Juniper Networks We used a reseller to help set up and initially manage the Juniper APs. Templates are set up and deployed to sites, and at first, it may seem complicated, with a slight learning curve. Once created and deployed, the overall management and usability are great. In summary, the initial setup takes some advanced knowledge of the Cloud Dashboard setup with templates. After that, it's easy to use and manage moving forward.

Alternatives Considered	Juniper Networks I prefer Juniper. Configuring the extreme environment was odd and clunky. Three years after we deployed Extreme I got informed the virtual controller we were using was end of life. The APs were still good, just the controller was end of life. I had to deploy a new virtual controller and reconfigure everything. I won't have this problem with Mist's cloud controller Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Juniper Networks Honestly, the best thing I can say is users had no idea we changed the network. We went from a network with little to no problems to a new network with no problems. When we deployed the new Access Points, users just connected and went about their day.
