We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Juniper EX Series 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.
"Arista Networks Platform offers straightforward deployment, and has good features. Support for the platform is also good."
"It's an extremely reliable platform for the network switches we use."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is very stable. It has good hardware and very stable code. It provides good value for its price. They are a very lean type of organization, so they are very responsive, and they're able to focus more on their platform versus having multiple products out there."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"The solution has good load latency. They're the market leader in this aspect right now."
"Arista Networks Platform has a feature that helps with monitoring and management."
"The solution is very stable."
"The feature I like the most is the ability to reword changes before committing to the change. We can always reword changes in 10 minutes if they don't work."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The solution has a high level of network functionality."
"It is a scalable solution."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"The solution is certainly scalable."
"This is a lower cost product with better features than the competition."
"The overall price of the Arista Networks Platform is expensive. It should be reduced."
"I want the solution to include a unified controller."
"The stability of this solution needs to be improved as part of the next upgrade."
"The solution needs to improve their product range."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"The intent-based networking management, together with the provider of these solutions that are already free, would be beneficial."
"A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions."
"The solution is a bit pricey."
"I would like the ability to operate with other operating systems."
"The initial setup for Juniper switches is complex. Juniper has a new program that solves that problem a little bit, but it is expensive, so I don't use it. It is Juniper Mesh, Juniper Wire, or something like that where you plug in a switch, and it goes out to their cloud, finds a config, and brings it down. So, you can do everything cloud-based, but there is a fee for that. It is expensive, so I've never used it. If we were starting, we would try to do something like that. It is more for a large enterprise for managing hundreds of switches versus what we're doing. They should make its price more cost-effective or include it for new or smaller companies."
"The difficulty of the installation of Juniper Ethernet Switches depends on the environment it is being implemented in. It is fairly straightforward in terms of being able to source the technical information as we need it. However, this process could improve."
"The only issue that we have with Juniper Ethernet Switches is the firmware because it is not stable."
"The initial setup of switches is not that simple."
"The updates are constantly breaking."
"We are not very pleased with their performance."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches could improve in the EX 2300 model because it does not support IPsec VPN. Only the models at 3400 or higher support it. Additionally, there is a need for support for Mac which is lacking. Some of their competitors, such as Cisco, support Mac."
