We performed a comparison between HPE Ethernet Switches and Ubiquiti UniFi 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."HPE Ethernet Switches are easy to configure."
"The solution is scalable."
"I like that HPE's management functions are GUI-based, so it doesn't rely on command lines."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"They are affordable and very stable. They also have good performance."
"The technical support for this solution has improved from what it was."
"HPE Ethernet Switches have a lifetime warranty. I am using an old version of the solution, but I have heard the new models have incorporated a lot of new features, such as remote setup."
"The speed is very fast."
"It's very easy to deploy – much easier than MikroTik. It's very seamless and well-designed."
"The two most valuable features are the remote access user and the side-to-side connection."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches are stable and support Layer 3. They come with a user-friendly interface. If you're not familiar with the command-line interface or you wouldn't like to configure it by using the command line, they have a user-friendly interface that you can use. They also have good documentation about how to use these switches."
"The solution is very reliable and stable."
"We have integrated the tool for PoE switches and non-PoE switches. Its most valuable feature is SD-WAN. UniFi SD-WAN can access all statistics and performance data in one interface, enabling us to support clients across different locations remotely. Additionally, we can even restart devices remotely through the UniFi SD-WAN."
"I can see which ports are connected and which ones are disconnected."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is a stable solution."
"The ability to deploy quickly and then having one central location for all the settings are its most valuable aspects."
"The solution would be easier to set up if its GUI could improve or if it had a wizard."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"If there is any fluctuation in power then we will face an outage with our POE switches, so this is something that should be improved."
"VLAN can be improved, but I have to check that with the company expert. I have different switch models, but they don't have all the same interface. I don't know whether lower-level switches don't have the same interface as the better quality ones. I might have two different model types."
"The only improvement I can think of is that it could be better with less updates."
"They should have more control tools for controlling the bandwidth."
"We'd like better support for situations where we need troubleshooting."
"The scalability is limited."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches need to add DNS lookup features."
"This brand is not very popular in China."
"New products don't integrate well with their management platform. Sometimes you have to go directly to the box or the switch to do the management."
"There is room for improvement in terms fo customer service and support."
"It would be helpful to have better visibility into exactly what is going on in the network."
"The support is pretty much email-based and that's horrible for an enterprise product. I can't call anybody right away."
"Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is not a cheap solution."
"The management of this product needs to be improved."
