Arista Networks Platform Pros review quotes

The most valuable aspect of Arista Networks products is their ease of configuration, especially when compared to Cisco products. When we implement advanced features for data centers such as BGP EVPN and VXLAN, Arista's configuration process is similar to that of Cisco's process, but at the same time it is simply much easier, clearer, and more understandable.

The best part is the single operating system that they have. Regardless of your model, it's the same operating system functioning across the board, which means you don't have to worry about backward compatibilities between your older switches and the new ones that you deploy.

Something that you will often hear about Arista products is that the price is a bit too high and, like with Cisco, we sometimes have problems with our customers because of its pricing.

My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed.

The intent-based networking management, together with the provider of these solutions that are already free, would be beneficial.

A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions.

The product fails to offer functions related to cloud orchestration, making it in areas where improvements are required.

They need to enhance their code and their EOS. They need to improve some security features, and there are quite a number of bugs in their system. So, they need to work on that piece. In the next release, we need to have a modular feature. Instead of providing an integrated solution, they should go for something modular. They need to come up with modular highly scalable models. Even at the chassis layer, I want to see some improvement.
