We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches and Arista Networks Platform 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."Enables direct access to clusters."
"The solution has a very good web interface. It makes it easy to manage everything."
"This is a dependable switch which will help you sleep at night."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches' best features are it's easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, with services coming through one vendor."
"The new web graphical interface is much better than before. We now have easy access to the command lines. They're all functional."
"It's easy to extend the stack, We don't use the smaller switches, but it's going well for the rest."
"The fibre ports that are 10 Gb capacity helped with the travel of a lot of regular as well as video data. Fibre can handle a lot more virtual data than copper twisted-pair, so we got a lot more data and a lot more traffic signals back through the fibre ports, faster, than with copper."
"We are able to customize this solution based on the customer's requirements."
"We find the CloudVision switching feature of this solution really useful."
"Arista Networks Platform has a feature that helps with monitoring and management."
"Arista Networks Platform offers straightforward deployment, and has good features. Support for the platform is also good."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"The user-friendly policy manager lets us apply different controls for various user groups easily."
"The solution is scalable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The configuration capabilities were good."
"The network connection should be improved."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"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 product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"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."
"Arista Networks Platform should focus on improving the compatibility or integration with Cisco solutions."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
"The solution is quite expensive. One of the negative aspects of it is the pricing."
"I want the solution to include a unified controller."
"They should have a more stable code."
"The stability of this solution needs to be improved as part of the next upgrade."
"The solution needs to accommodate new features."
