Comparison Results: Aruba Switches comes out on top in this comparison. It is easy to deploy and, according to reviews, it is a more powerful and robust solution than Juniper Ethernet Switches.
"I like the number of available throughputs and its ability to have different speeds of ethernet cards or fiber-optic SFPs. It's a core switch, and you can configure it as per your requirements. All the configuration details are well documented on the HP website or Aruba website, and one can easily refer to those and find all the relevant commands from the documentation itself. It's also easy to maintain this solution. It's also cheaper than competing products."
"The most valuable feature of Aruba Switches is its performance."
"Aruba Switches are definitely stable."
"It is slightly more price effective than Juniper and it has a slightly larger range."
"Aruba access points have a good transfer rate."
"It is very easy to set up."
"The most valuable aspect for our organization is the CX. It's wonderful."
"There is a limited lifetime warranty with the switches, so if we have any problems, the switch is replaced very quickly."
"The most valuable feature is that the CLI is the same on all of the Juniper devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls."
"It has features that allow us to go back to previous configurations."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"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."
"There is no end to the ability to scale Juniper."
"One of the nicest things about Juniper switches is they work well with other vendor products. When you have to go into a situation where other vendor switches are present, you can make it work."
"It's pretty good as compared to other vendors."
"You willuse almost every feature on every switch to some degree because the utility is valuable."
"I would like to see the data center area improving by some added features in the future."
"The customer service could be a bit quicker and the employees could be more professional."
"I would like to see something like a Cisco Prime, an application controlling the entire system, switches, and access points."
"Aruba Switches could improve the monitoring and increase the scope of their online portal to cover cloud and on-premise deployments."
"This product could be improved with additional security features."
"If we compare Aruba and Cisco at the data center layer, Cisco has its Nexus switch. Aruba provides the new 10000 series, but it does not compare with the Nexus switch."
"I'm not sure if they have the core switch series as well."
"We don't have visibility in Aruba Switches and we are thinking of switching to Fortiswitch because it has visibility."
"The management tools are limited in their abilities, and suffer from upgrade problems."
"Their web GUI interface needs to be a lot better, especially when compared to HP. The command line is good, but you have to know how to get around it. The GUI is clunky and very slow."
"It was very difficult to get technical support, here in Egypt. There is no local support available."
"Jupiter Switches' configuration is a little difficult to understand."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"The stability of this solution should be improved."
"The price is in the intermediate range. It is not overly expensive, but also not cheap. It could stand improvement."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' operating systems get corrupted when the power fails. They have to improve this issue. I may have to use a newer version."
