We performed a comparison between D-Link 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."D-Link has a graphical interface that is easy to use. It is simple enough that our junior technicians can configure the switches."
"The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly."
"D-Link has a good VPN feature and quality of service."
"We use the solution for the network and ethernet connection."
"These switches are very easy to install because there is no configuration."
"I can't find anything wrong with our D-Link Ethernet Switches."
"The product is simple to manage."
"It is very stable and reliable."
"The performance is great."
"It's fairly lightweight, they don't require a lot of maintenance."
"I value that there is a clear place to find a MAC table with HPE Ethernet Switches."
"We were able to onboard HPE Ethernet Switches easily to the cloud. It was fast and took only five minutes to complete."
"The most valuable feature is that they all have PoE. It's one of the most important things that we need in the EdgeSwitch."
"The HPE Ethernet switches have very low latency."
"Switching to HPE Ethernet Switches greatly improved our network. We used to have both Cisco and HPE Ethernet Switches. Our network performance has increased by 300 percent."
"The most valuable feature in HPE Ethernet Switches is programmability and analytics."
"I'd like to see a central management system included as part of their license, not as a separate purchase. Currently, we have to manage switches independently. A central portal for managing all switches and providing visibility would be great."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
"I would like an option to create different networks within the switch."
"The solution's web filtering feature could be improved."
"In a future release, the solution could improve by being more secure and allowing the configuration of each port."
"It should be more stable, and it should have good integration with the cloud. It should support configuration, supervision, and control through the cloud."
"The solution needs better local support."
"They need to have some more high-end switches."
"It would be ideal if the product offered more security."
"They should have more control tools for controlling the bandwidth."
"We haven't had any issues with this switch in the past 10 years. That's the reason we're still keeping them alive."
"There is room for improvement in the update process, especially the web UI update process."
"The quality of the service needs improvement."
"It is not very stable."
"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."
"The next release would benefit from adding a central management that could be deployable on premise and allow you to see the layout of topology."
