We performed a comparison between HPE 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."These switches are very stable, to date I have not experienced any issues."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"I value that there is a clear place to find a MAC table with HPE Ethernet Switches."
"It is a scalable solution."
"We use HPE Ethernet Switches to provide solutions for the hotel, their guests, and IPTV."
"The solution is very stable and easy to use."
"What I like the most is the management system integrated with the HP system."
"It's fairly lightweight, they don't require a lot of maintenance."
"Junos OS is extremely flexible and easy to pick up."
"Juniper Switches' best feature is its flexibility."
"The scalability is excellent. It's one of the aspects of the solution that is quite good."
"The Juniper Ethernet switch feature I find the most valuable is reliability."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten."
"Juniper is the best when it comes to the core layer."
"I like the VLAN capabilities, and the Junos interface is easy to use."
"Configuration can be complex."
"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."
"The ability to stack, as well as a unified operating system, would be extremely beneficial."
"The security of the solution always has room for improvement."
"It would be ideal if the product offered more security."
"VLAN can be improved, but I have to check that with the company expert. I have different switch models, but they don't have all the same interface. I don't know whether lower-level switches don't have the same interface as the better quality ones. I might have two different model types."
"Technical support needs improvement, as the response time could be better."
"We have some problems with the performance of our HPE Ethernet Switches because they are old."
"The management tools are limited in their abilities, and suffer from upgrade problems."
"The price is in the intermediate range. It is not overly expensive, but also not cheap. It could stand improvement."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' tech support is hard to reach and slow."
"Their web GUI interface needs to be a lot better, especially when compared to HP. The command line is good, but you have to know how to get around it. The GUI is clunky and very slow."
"The only issue that we have with Juniper Ethernet Switches is the firmware because it is not stable."
"Wireless and monitoring definitely could be improved."
"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."
"All Juniper documentation is terrible."
