We performed a comparison between Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches and MikroTik Cloud Router Switch 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."What matters most to me is the security of the product, and Cisco does a pretty good job."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It is very stable. Performance is very good."
"In a previous use case, we deployed Linksys Switches for blocking unwanted signals within a premises with the help of their clean air technology. This was one of the notable advantages of Linksys Switches over Cisco."
"I have found their security features the most valuable. These security features are supported on most of the other features. Similarly, the protocols and the standards are supported on other features, such as the stacking feature, the availability feature, internet channel, link application, and protocols. There are so many features on these features."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the support."
"The deployment of the solution is quite fast."
"The product offers a very professional experience."
"I like that it's quite flexible and addresses different issues. It's quite easy to use, and the pricing is great. We find them to be very capable switches."
"The beauty of MikroTik is that you have flexibility with the routing parts."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It is easy to set up."
"A valuable aspect is its user-friendly configuration, making it accessible even for individuals with basic technical knowledge."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"It is user-friendly, reliable, and cheap."
"The most valuable feature is that it has better throughput than its competitors."
"Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is an expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"We haven't had any issues with the solution."
"We'd prefer if the product, in general, was easier to use. It can be a bit difficult."
"You do need a bit of knowledge about the solution. There's a small learning curve involved when implementing the product."
"The initial setup was complex."
"It should be cheaper. We need a better price from Cisco. Its initial setup and support should also be improved."
"The solution's support can use improvement because they are not very good at following up."
"It's no longer stable, the Wi-Fi on this device is no longer stable."
"It happens that you may find your network is down, if you reboot the switch, they come up. However, sometimes, they reset themselves. That's a big issue."
"The user interface could improve and they should allow a license for IBS."
"MikroTik needs to add some features like IPS, mail security, or antivirus, et cetera."
"The port isolation and VLAN need to be improved."
"It would be even better with a centralized management platform."
"Antispam and antivirus features should be included in the future."
"The solution does not yet offer a SaaS version."
"There has to be more development in the OS. It's complex for this switch as compared to others like Cisco. For NetGear and Cisco, it's easy to adapt the VLAN concept but it should be simplified for MikroTik."
