"The performance has been good."
"The most valuable feature is that it has better throughput than its competitors."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"The security features could be better."
"The solution could improve reliability and it needs more functions."
"Finding market expertise is hard."
"Juniper have addressed issues with the MX204, but it still has a limited number of interfaces. Ideally, it should support up to twenty or twenty-four interfaces to better serve smaller service providers. Additionally, the MX304 doesn't support subscriber management, also known as BNG, which I believe should be included."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"The solution could improve by providing better training to allow more sales of the solution in the market."
"Better documentation to assist with implementation would be helpful."
"The integration could be better."
"MikroTik needs to add some features like IPS, mail security, or antivirus, et cetera."
"Stuff that I'd like to be improved is really just training and documentation because I think the feature set is full. Another improvement I'd suggest is that their new, bigger releases should be a bit more stable."
"It happens that you may find your network is down, if you reboot the switch, they come up. However, sometimes, they reset themselves. That's a big issue."
"The packet filtering, user log data, and user access log could all be improved."
"The user interface could improve and they should allow a license for IBS."
"There has to be more development in the OS. It's complex for this switch as compared to others like Cisco. For NetGear and Cisco, it's easy to adapt the VLAN concept but it should be simplified for MikroTik."
"Improvements are needed with respect to some of the security, especially for VPN links between vendors other than Cisco."
"Technical support could be better."
