We performed a comparison between Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches and Ubiquiti UniFi 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."Juniper EX Series is part of the Junos operating system and has a candidate configuration feature, which means changes are not immediately applied. It has a consistent command structure across all platforms and can handle both layer-three routing and layer-two switching. Additionally, the Junos OS offers virtualization options and support for multi-chassis and fabric switching. Overall, the Juniper EX Series is a versatile and powerful solution."
"It has features that allow us to go back to previous configurations."
"The most valuable feature is switching on our network."
"The solution is scalable. It supports my five-year expansion plan. I could expand without a problem."
"The Virtual Chassis, because you have a centralized administration of a set of switches which makes the operation more efficient."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches are high-end solutions."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' most valuable feature is the Juniper-Mist cloud, which facilitates management of the switches and access points."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"The ability to manage firmware revisions."
"Good price point and very simple to use."
"The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward."
"It is a high-quality product, and it won't let you down."
"The switches' PoE capabilities have made device deployment very easy."
"For the world where you have to balance traffic and traffic loads and bandwidth, their GUI makes it really easy because the switches, though they are enterprise grade level two or level three switches, the GUI is designed so that it's easy to set up VLANs where you need to control your traffic so that your phones don't break up and get choppy because of other people loading the network down too heavily."
"The product is seamless and robust."
"The most valuable feature of Ubiquiti UniFi Switches is the graphic user interface for monitoring, where you can see the status of the device in real-time. I use those features across the campus. I use the APs as my beacons to tell me whether the area of the school of the network is down or not. Those will be the first to alert me that there is a problem with the network or a device. They provide me with more than only monitoring themselves, I use them in order to monitor all the devices."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches would be improved by upgrading the uplink port in EX2300 categories service from 10G to 25G."
"It was very difficult to get technical support, here in Egypt. There is no local support available."
"Juniper's support could be much better and faster."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches could improve in the EX 2300 model because it does not support IPsec VPN. Only the models at 3400 or higher support it. Additionally, there is a need for support for Mac which is lacking. Some of their competitors, such as Cisco, support Mac."
"The stability of this solution should be improved."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"Has a steep learning curve."
"The security features for the product should be more unified for the product regardless of the product model."
"The stability and installation could be improved."
"We need to upgrade everything too often."
"The management of this product needs to be improved."
"Some of the features needed to set up the solution are too complex. There's a lot of technical information that is required."
"New products don't integrate well with their management platform. Sometimes you have to go directly to the box or the switch to do the management."
"It would be nice if there was a way to label all of the ports on it so that I could include information about where the various connections go."
"The VPN technology in Ubiquiti products is really difficult for beginners who do not have the right skills."
"The documentation for command lines needs to be improved."
