We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros

Cons
"One of the issues that we have been faced with here in Brazil is that we don't have any list times for delivery.""It would be ideal if the solution was less expensive.""I would like to see a version available with eight or sixteen ports."

More Arista Campus LAN Switches Cons →

"Procurve would work better if it had more options like the web environment.""There is one proprietary function they lack, and I can't remember what it was called, but it monitors the ports, and then every 10 seconds if the port is down, it can divert the traffic somewhere else.""The dashboards could be improved to be more interesting.""These switches can be made more stable and robust.""The CLI is a bit confusing. It is not the easiest to manage, especially if you come from a Cisco environment.""If you make a change and you disconnect yourself from the switch, you will create an issue.""The only things that might need improvement would be the administrative tools and the graphical interface. The GUI could be improved on the administrative interface, for example.""HPE ProCurve's web interface is old, and I have to log in on each device separately, making them the product's shortcomings that need improvement."
