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."They're straightforward to set up."
"Huawei switches come in small, medium, and large capacities and can be used for monitoring and switching."
"One scenario where Huawei Ethernet Switches improved network efficiency was last year when a customer needed switches with 10 gigabits, which are not very common in the market. Huawei provided this kind of switch, enabling the customer to upgrade their network from 1 gigabit to 10 gigabit speeds across all devices."
"The functionality is basically the same as Cisco."
"I use it on a daily basis and I find it to be quite stable."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its very simple configuration."
"Pricing-wise, Huawei is quite good."
"The Huawei switches are stable, easy to set up, and cheap."
"The pricing is very reasonable. It's not too expensive."
"MikroTik Routers and Switches are stable"
"We have use cases like providing power over ethernet, as an access controller for Wi-Fi, and normal networking."
"They are stable."
"The routing is nice and straightforward."
"The solution offers very good multi-routing."
"The features of the equipment fit all the needs of the customers."
"I like MikroTik's GUI. It's completely handy and easy to handle because of its GUI. Despite other brands like Cisco urging me to switch, I didn't because they don't have a GUI. This is the most comfortable thing in my project that anyone can use easily. It's effortless to maintain MikroTik routers because both screens make it very easy in GUI mode. You can easily interact with your hardware."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement. It could be more stable as well."
"The configuration could be improved and deployment should be easier."
"The interoperability of the devices, in general, on the Huawei switches is not good and is known to be not good. Maybe they can improve this a bit."
"The product's stability has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"We would like to see additional backup solutions, since we have several degrees of backup."
"There are some support issues."
"The stability can be improved."
"The performance has been slow at times."
"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."
"In the Israeli market, we are in need of Hebrew support."
"Wireless throughput has not kept up with the competition."
"They lack the extended warranty for the equipment. They only provide a warranty for one year as compared to the other vendors who offer a warranty for three years, five years, and lifetime, etc."
"A central management platform would be great."
"The batch management could be improved."
"The product's setup process could be easier."
"The initial setup could be easier."
