We performed a comparison between Juniper EX Series 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 easy to use."
"The ease of management through the command line interface is very good."
"The solution is certainly scalable."
"I like that it's fairly easy to implement these ethernet switches."
"The virtual Chassis feature for stacking is good in general, with high bandwidth for the link, which is good."
"It is very valuable for SRX devices and we have found it very easy to configure."
"The Juniper Ethernet switch feature I find the most valuable is reliability."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches are high-end solutions."
"It has a lot of features. I haven't explored them all yet."
"I like the routing features."
"It's pretty stable."
"We have use cases like providing power over ethernet, as an access controller for Wi-Fi, and normal networking."
"The solution offers very good multi-routing."
"The deployment process of MikroTik routers and switches is very convenient since it is not command-driven and comes with a graphical user interface, making it much easier to operate."
"One of the primary advantages is its competitive pricing in the market."
"The stability is good."
"The upgrading of the system should be simplified and made faster."
"The solution is a bit costly compared to other products."
"We need to start seeing some kind of AI to assist with some of what we really want to accomplish from a policy standpoint to achieve better efficiency."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"The protocols can be tunneled, but on a global basis, not on an interface, and this is a feature that should be added."
"The stability could be better. We find, for example, Cisco, to be more stable."
"The durability of the devices could be better."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches would be improved by upgrading the uplink port in EX2300 categories service from 10G to 25G."
"I would like to see a cluster feature added, where multiple devices can be configured and managed as one. One is in a standby state while the other is active, and if one fails then the other takes over."
"There are limitations to how many users you have simultaneously."
"The solution is a complicated device."
"The ports could be improved, as certain areas may need to be terminated with a greater number of Ethernet ports. We initially faced challenges that hindered our network usage, especially with third-party applications that were not certified or supported. It took some time to streamline and resolve these issues."
"The updates as well as the patches could be improved. I believe it would be beneficial to automate the process of router patching to avoid the need for manual checks. With automated patching, as long as the router is connected to the internet, it can automatically perform necessary updates. Failing to patch the router can leave me vulnerable to potential security threats."
"I would like to have some additional filtering options added in the future."
"Troubleshooting can be complex."
"MikroTik does not have a wireless solution. If they created a high-performance wireless solution we would deploy it in our infrastructure."
