We performed a comparison between Broadcom StrataDNX 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."Easy to integrate with any of the other hardware platforms."
"The good thing about the StrataDNX is that the Broadcom family is very interchangeable, so they work well with different optical transceivers."
"It has a lot of features. I haven't explored them all yet."
"This is a good solution."
"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."
"This solution is easy to configure and it's very flexible."
"I like the routing features."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"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."
"We've enjoyed the fact that it has very good performance."
"The number of surfaces that can be handled by the chipset could be increased."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"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."
"The solution needs to improve its security firewalls and mirror that of, for example, Sophos, or FortiGate."
"If the client wants bigger capacity, there may be some issues. That is, there may be issues with scalability."
"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."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"MikroTik Routers and Switches need a firewall policy to secure the network. I also want Mikrotic to add load balancing to the firewall policy, as it's currently hard to do in Mikrotik devices."
"In the Israeli market, we are in need of Hebrew support."
"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."
