We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches and HPE Ethernet 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 solution has a very good web interface. It makes it easy to manage everything."
"The fibre ports that are 10 Gb capacity helped with the travel of a lot of regular as well as video data. Fibre can handle a lot more virtual data than copper twisted-pair, so we got a lot more data and a lot more traffic signals back through the fibre ports, faster, than with copper."
"The new web graphical interface is much better than before. We now have easy access to the command lines. They're all functional."
"The product is stable. It does have only one power supply. They don't have a redundant power supply."
"This is a dependable switch which will help you sleep at night."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches' best features are it's easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, with services coming through one vendor."
"We are able to customize this solution based on the customer's requirements."
"Enables direct access to clusters."
"The most valuable feature is the IRF."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"The initial setup is straightforward. The steps are simple, and you can always contact support if needed. Overall, it's easy."
"It's fairly lightweight, they don't require a lot of maintenance."
"The solution can scale."
"The most valuable product is the unmanaged HP switch."
"The scalability is very good."
"The initial setup of this solution is easy."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"The network connection should be improved."
"The product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"I could see them possibly creating a more intuitive software. It's very user-friendly, but there are some things that aren't very intuitive when programming the switches."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"They should continue to work on new features."
"The VLAN tagging could be improved,"
"The technical support does not match up to the standard of Cisco."
"The security of the solution always has room for improvement."
"I would also like to see a more centralized private management console for the series of devices. Most solutions are adopting centralized cloud-based management, but my client base believes cloud solutions are too insecure. You've got a few dozen switches, so it would be nice to have the ability to manage them on a "single pane of glass.""
"The ability to stack, as well as a unified operating system, would be extremely beneficial."
"I would like to see more updates for the solution."
"This solution needs to support software-defined networking."
