"The solution has good load latency. They're the market leader in this aspect right now."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It provides telemetry and visibility for many metrics that are not supported by most of the other vendors. Out of the box, no third party solutions are needed."
"Arista Networks Platform has a feature that helps with monitoring and management."
"We're very happy with what we are getting out of the solution in general. The features are good. They're comparable to other brands such as Cisco and HP."

"They need to enhance their code and their EOS. They need to improve some security features, and there are quite a number of bugs in their system. So, they need to work on that piece. In the next release, we need to have a modular feature. Instead of providing an integrated solution, they should go for something modular. They need to come up with modular highly scalable models. Even at the chassis layer, I want to see some improvement."
"It would be very good if these products are accessible via different kinds of shells and GUI. It will make these solutions very usable."
"I would like to have the option of having multiple logins."
"A central management platform would be great."
