"The user-friendly policy manager lets us apply different controls for various user groups easily."
"What we like most is its performance to price ratio."
"The best feature of H3C Ethernet Switches is their reliability."
"A good high-performance solution."
"H3C Ethernet Switches have a fast delivery time."
"We can configure the switch stack on the internet. Other vendors do not offer this facility. It is fast and easy to manage."
"H3C Ethernet Switches is a cheap solution."
"To date, it has proven to be highly reliable. We have encountered no issues or challenges with it thus far."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
