We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches and D-Link Ethernet Switches based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Ethernet Switches solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We are able to customize this solution based on the customer's requirements."
"Enables direct access to clusters."
"The new web graphical interface is much better than before. We now have easy access to the command lines. They're all functional."
"The solution has a very good web interface. It makes it easy to manage everything."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches' best features are it's easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, with services coming through one vendor."
"This is a dependable switch which will help you sleep at night."
"The fibre ports that are 10 Gb capacity helped with the travel of a lot of regular as well as video data. Fibre can handle a lot more virtual data than copper twisted-pair, so we got a lot more data and a lot more traffic signals back through the fibre ports, faster, than with copper."
"The product is stable. It does have only one power supply. They don't have a redundant power supply."
"The main selling point for me was the pricing. Moreover, the performance is good. I haven't had any issues so far."
"These switches are simple and easy to configure."
"D-Link has a graphical interface that is easy to use. It is simple enough that our junior technicians can configure the switches."
"Its integration is the most valuable."
"The initial setup of D-Link Ethernet Switches is very easy."
"The solution is easy to use."
"We use the solution for the network and ethernet connection."
"It is a stable solution."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"The network connection should be improved."
"I could see them possibly creating a more intuitive software. It's very user-friendly, but there are some things that aren't very intuitive when programming the switches."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"The product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"The solution needs better local support."
"The solution needs to improve layer 2 switches."
"They need to enhance stability."
"The D-Link Ethernet Switches have to be replaced because they are difficult to manage and security is poor. They should add centralized manageability to make the solution better, it will allow administrators to better know what is happening on the network."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
"I'd like to see a central management system included as part of their license, not as a separate purchase. Currently, we have to manage switches independently. A central portal for managing all switches and providing visibility would be great."
"The technical support needs a lot of improvement."
"It could be easier to scale on managed devices."
