We performed a comparison between H3C 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."Offering a five-year warranty, compared to competitors' one-year warranties, is a unique advantage of H3C switches."
"The best feature of H3C Ethernet Switches is their reliability."
"H3C Ethernet Switches have a fast delivery time."
"H3C Ethernet Switches is a cheap solution."
"A good high-performance solution."
"To date, it has proven to be highly reliable. We have encountered no issues or challenges with it thus far."
"We can configure the switch stack on the internet. Other vendors do not offer this facility. It is fast and easy to manage."
"The technical support for this solution has improved from what it was."
"These are the basic access layer switches used for connectivity among users, and they are cost-effective."
"I have found the most valuable feature is stability."
"I like that HPE's management functions are GUI-based, so it doesn't rely on command lines."
"The solution is very stable and easy to use."
"I'm a power user, so reliability is crucial. The HPE equipment hasn't failed on me, unlike some other brands like Huawei, which I find more sensitive."
"The solution is very, very stable."
"The most valuable product is the unmanaged HP switch."
"The only improvement needed is the significantly better lead time for delivery compared to other American products. In terms of technology, there isn't much difference, especially since X3 is a subsidiary of XP, and they use the same technology. However, the delivery time is notably better."
"H3C Ethernet Switches could improve by widening their product range."
"Lacks decent cloud management."
"To enhance H3C switches for the next release, improving the user interface is crucial."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"There should be more public tools for configuration and comparing products."
"GUI needs to merge with CLI."
"The installation can be quite complex. However, that may not be the fault of HP and is rather more related to the way our infrastructure is arranged."
"The solution lacks certain protocols and has a limited warranty."
"The solution could improve by having more integration options."
"It's gone up in price in the last 12 months."
"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 next release would benefit from adding a central management that could be deployable on premise and allow you to see the layout of topology."
"The management of the tool must be improved."
"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."
