We performed a comparison between 3Com H3C 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."The reliability of the solution has been the best feature."
"The hardware side is a very big advantage. We use it 24/7 and we haven't had any problems so far with the switches."
"They're straightforward and stable."
"They are easy to use, they are cheaper, and it's a trusted brand."
"The installation is quite straightforward."
"They are very good at providing the bandwidth for multi-tenants and multi-dwelling units. We're managing WiFi hotspots for hundreds of locations, and the speed and performance are quite there. They also have very cheap 10G products that come with really good and flexible software. They are way cheaper than the top brands, and they're able to deliver the same performance and capabilities."
"We have use cases like providing power over ethernet, as an access controller for Wi-Fi, and normal networking."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is its bandwidth management ability."
"This equipment is resilient and available at a good price."
"This is a good solution."
"The most valuable feature is the price because it's highly cost-effective concerning the functionalities provided within the box. The solution is stable. The solution is scalable. The initial setup is straightforward. I would recommend the solution because it provides value for money."
"Load balancing is one of the valuable features of the solution...In short, MikroTik provides a very user-friendly GUI option."
"When we try to do configuration changes sometimes it malfunctions."
"I think there's nothing that needs to be improved because the company is no longer in existence."
"The technical support services need improvement in terms of communication."
"The configuration of 3Com H3C Switches could be better."
"The cost and the integration with other solutions could be better."
"The solution needs to improve its security firewalls and mirror that of, for example, Sophos, or FortiGate."
"As far as improvements, there are basically only two things I would suggest. First, I think they should provide extensive training for the new releases of products, especially in the LTE space. Second, they could spend more time ensuring that their OS releases are more stable, rather than waiting for things to fall apart on the customer's premises before they make the necessary changes."
"The queuing functionality needs improvement. The initial setup could be simplified."
"The solution needs to be more robust. In case of power fluctuations, MikroTik routers are more vulnerable to malfunctioning."
"I would like to have some additional filtering options added in the future."
"The CPU load is too high. This causes the Internet to lag."
"The initial setup can be a bit difficult. The configuration can take a lot of time."
"A central management platform would be great."
