We performed a comparison between Huawei Ethernet Switches 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."Pricing-wise, Huawei is quite good."
"The CLI syntax."
"If you're a small one-on-one organization, then cost-effective-wise, I would recommend it."
"The most valuable features are that it is easy to use, easy to configure, it's priced well, and the operating system is easy to understand."
"Huawei switches come in small, medium, and large capacities and can be used for monitoring and switching."
"It is pretty straightforward to set up."
"The tool's valuable features are easy to deploy and troubleshoot with available documentation. They are cost-effective and can reduce operational expenses. Huawei Ethernet Switches have built-in AI features for monitoring and analytics. These are the tool's solutions, not third-party integrations."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches come with native ACs."
"One of the nicest things about Juniper switches is they work well with other vendor products. When you have to go into a situation where other vendor switches are present, you can make it work."
"There is no end to the ability to scale Juniper."
"Juniper Switches' best feature is its flexibility."
"I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10 for scalability."
"The solution has a high level of network functionality."
"The Virtual Chassis, because you have a centralized administration of a set of switches which makes the operation more efficient."
"The GUI interface distinguishes it from other vendors and makes it easy to operate."
"The scalability is excellent. It's one of the aspects of the solution that is quite good."
"The performance has been slow at times."
"It is not easy to use if you need to monitor, patch or update. It needs to be configured by a network specialist because it doesn't have an overall central monitoring tool or anything like that. I'd say no ease of use."
"I would like to see more training opportunities available."
"The stability could be improved."
"The solution can improve by adding virtualized switch functionality."
"Integration could be improved. The price could also be lower."
"The configuration is very difficult even for someone who is already familiar with the configuration process."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are scalable but can be improved."
"Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches lack to offer the latest management tools."
"One potential drawback of the Juniper EX Series has been that those without experience using a command-line interface (CLI) may find it intimidating. However, Junos is working on improving this by offering tools, such as Juniper Mist with Wired Assurance and Apstra. Additionally, the graphical user interface (GUI) could be improved as it has been considered lackluster across the board in Junos."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"Has a steep learning curve."
"The only issue that we have with Juniper Ethernet Switches is the firmware because it is not stable."
"They could improve the code, as there are some issues with it."
"They could provide better security tools."
"We are undergoing a migration to software-defined networking. Different vendors have to integrate with each other and we are not seeing this type of capability within Juniper. We are getting left behind in this technology trend by staying with this solution. Juniper is also losing a bit of market share because of this."
