We performed a comparison between HPE Ethernet Switches and MikroTik Routers and 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."It's fairly lightweight, they don't require a lot of maintenance."
"The initial setup is straightforward. The steps are simple, and you can always contact support if needed. Overall, it's easy."
"I have found the most valuable feature is stability."
"Stable and scalable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"It's stable and performing well."
"Switching to HPE Ethernet Switches greatly improved our network. We used to have both Cisco and HPE Ethernet Switches. Our network performance has increased by 300 percent."
"The solution is very stable and easy to use."
"The flexible IP firewall and IP network address translation make it very easy to give access to internal services."
"It is a stable solution. I have been using the solution for a while, and I don't face any outages or trouble while using the solution."
"We make use of a script that will automatically re-route traffic when connections are slow."
"The tool's most valuable features are flexibility and configuration. It can be used in large setups."
"MikroTik offers full enterprise capabilities at a very reasonable price."
"The pricing is very reasonable. It's not too expensive."
"This equipment is resilient and available at a good price."
"It has a lot of features. I haven't explored them all yet."
"There is some improvement needed for the power supply of the solution."
"A lower price would be an improvement because we always want to reduce our costs."
"If there is any fluctuation in power then we will face an outage with our POE switches, so this is something that should be improved."
"Sometimes, we encounter the need for new technologies, especially when we require higher bandwidth. If we can't find what we need with HPE Ethernet Switches, we explore options from other vendors like Cisco."
"The solution's throughput should be increased because we often get stuck when it comes to IPTV streaming."
"I would also like to see a more centralized private management console for the series of devices. Most solutions are adopting centralized cloud-based management, but my client base believes cloud solutions are too insecure. You've got a few dozen switches, so it would be nice to have the ability to manage them on a "single pane of glass.""
"It would be better if they improve the implementation of SD-WAN."
"The product could always use better technical support."
"The solution does suffer from freezing and corruption issues."
"The solution needs to offer better documentation."
"The user interface is not very good."
"The product's setup process could be easier."
"I would like to see some content filtering with MikroTik Routers and Switches."
"It would be very good if these products are accessible via different kinds of shells and GUI. It will make these solutions very usable."
"They need to create a license for IBS. I have a lot of clients that have spam on their networks."
"There are limitations to how many users you have simultaneously."
