We performed a comparison between Huawei Ethernet 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 most valuable feature is the audit systems. I also like that it can synchronize on the alternate configuration of products together at the same time."
"They have the ability, since they have a very big R&D team, to create an upgrade for any feature or patch very easily."
"The CLI syntax."
"The functionality is basically the same as Cisco."
"They're straightforward to set up."
"The most valuable aspect of Huawei Ethernet Switches is their excellent scalability."
"The solution is stable and the performance is good."
"Scalability isn't an issue."
"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."
"We have not had any downtime with it. It has been a solid performer that way."
"The setup is easy."
"The product is simple to use."
"We have found this solution is quite robust and there are a lot of features in a small device."
"It's pretty stable."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the combination of value for money. They're extremely cost effective, yet they provide you with an extensive feature set of things you can do across the board. Also, they're pretty reliable, as far as equipment goes."
"Devices should have the ability to configure more easily."
"One of the problems with Huawei is that when you receive a product quote from one of the vendors, you cannot get prices from the other ones because they register your request with Huawei."
"The solution should make the text report more accessible."
"The durability of the device can be improved."
"There needs to be more documentation. If they opened up a bit and shared more information and maybe allowed for YouTube videos about their products and how to work them, it would benefit the users quite a bit."
"Deploying Huawei Ethernet Switches in an organization offers advantages, especially if the decision is made early in the process and the company opts for a single-vendor approach. This simplifies implementation and customization, often resulting in lower prices and tailored solutions from Huawei. However, excessive customization can lead to support issues and challenges in knowledge transfer during employee turnover."
"Huawei Switch can make further advancements, as the current CLI lacks functionality. The majority of tasks are performed through the CLI, making it difficult for those without technical expertise to work with. They should enhance the CLI of the access switches to make them more user-friendly. The GUI of the Ethernet Switches should also be improved to allow non-technical users to perform technical tasks with ease. Additionally, the documentation of the solution could improve."
"The company needs to provide more on hand training on the product."
"The solution is a complicated device."
"The user interface is not very good."
"There are limitations to how many users you have simultaneously."
"There needs to be better support for this solution in India. We have no local support."
"The product's setup process could be easier."
"Improvements could be made in terms of SD-WAN capabilities and zero-touch provisioning."
"The solution's website isn't that good. When I go to it, I can't find what I'm looking for. However, if I go to a third party's website, I can easily find the information."
"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."
