We performed a comparison between HPE Ethernet Switches and Juniper EX Series 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.
"The most valuable feature in HPE Ethernet Switches is programmability and analytics."
"HPE Ethernet Switches are scalable, and their software is also quite sturdy."
"I value that there is a clear place to find a MAC table with HPE Ethernet Switches."
"These switches are very stable, to date I have not experienced any issues."
"The solution offers lifetime warranties."
"The HPE Ethernet switches have very low latency."
"he stability is very good on this solution. There have been no bugs, glitches or crashes."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"The feature I like the most is the ability to reword changes before committing to the change. We can always reword changes in 10 minutes if they don't work."
"The thing that sets Juniper apart from most switches is that when you're in the command line and you make a configuration change, you just write the command and then say "commit confirmed minutes". For example, I'm configuring a switch here in my office, which is five miles away, and I say, "commit confirmed 5". If I can't get back to the interface within five minutes to be able to make sure the switch came up, it rolls back to the previous configuration. This way I do not get locked out, or the switch doesn't get messed up because of the incorrect configuration. That's an automatic feature, which is pretty slick. I haven't seen that feature with other vendors that I've worked with. That's probably my most favorite feature."
"Junos OS is extremely flexible and easy to pick up."
"The most valuable feature is switching on our network."
"The solution has a high level of network functionality."
"The performance is very good."
"The most valuable feature is that the CLI is the same on all of the Juniper devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The product could always use better technical support."
"The solution lacks certain protocols and has a limited warranty."
"We haven't had any issues with this switch in the past 10 years. That's the reason we're still keeping them alive."
"We would always be happier if the price were reduced."
"I would like to see the initial setup become easier."
"They should continue to work on new features."
"There is some improvement needed for the power supply of the solution."
"Authentication and other security features are not easily satisfied using the lower-end switches."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' tech support is hard to reach and slow."
"I have found the scalability could be improved in the version I was using."
"The protocols can be tunneled, but on a global basis, not on an interface, and this is a feature that should be added."
"The durability of the devices could be better."
"Juniper EX Series could improve the process and ease of updating the software. It is a difficult process."
"The only issue that we have with Juniper Ethernet Switches is the firmware because it is not stable."
"The price is in the intermediate range. It is not overly expensive, but also not cheap. It could stand improvement."
"You need to make a few local configurations to work with the solution. We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
