"It's easy to extend the stack, We don't use the smaller switches, but it's going well for the rest."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the combination of value for money. They're extremely cost effective, yet they provide you with an extensive feature set of things you can do across the board. Also, they're pretty reliable, as far as equipment goes."
"The pricing is very reasonable. It's not too expensive."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"We're very happy with what we are getting out of the solution in general. The features are good. They're comparable to other brands such as Cisco and HP."

"The product is very reliable."
"The solution offers very good multi-routing."
"The product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"The network connection should be improved."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"I could see them possibly creating a more intuitive software. It's very user-friendly, but there are some things that aren't very intuitive when programming the switches."
"The Soft-GRE support needs to be improved."
"I would like to have some additional filtering options added in the future."
"The solution does suffer from freezing and corruption issues."
"We'd like for them to improve the UI and improve on speed."
"The interface for management could be improved."
"I would appreciate enhancements to impose more restrictions on VPN connections."
"The initial setup could be easier."
"It could be more scalable. Product awareness could also be better. There's a lack of awareness when it comes to MikroTik. People only know about Cisco and others, and they won't rely on MikroTik. This is primarily because of hardware limitations. While this product is good economically, it's unsuitable for high-end projects. In the next release, I want this product to be more compatible."
