"The documentation needs to be better.""There are some support issues.""It’s hard to get technical support.""The interoperability of the devices, in general, on the Huawei switches is not good and is known to be not good. Maybe they can improve this a bit.""The stability can be improved.""The technical support is technically savvy, but the communication via English is not so easy.""Huawei has a lot of issues; it's not in sync properly. For instance, if the ONT is down, there's another problem with another ONT that is not functioning correctly. Even after configuring the siding, I cannot reach some other side, and I don't know why it's happening.""The licensing cost attached to the solution is atrocious, so from an improvement perspective, it should be made cheaper."
