We performed a comparison between Cisco Ethernet Switches and Nokia Ethernet Service Switch 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."Cisco Ethernet Switches are scalable, much more than Jupiter."
"The solution is basically issue-free."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the performance of the product."
"Cisco Ethernet Switches are rugged, secure, and scalable. It provides smart devices and reliable switches."
"I know this solution for many years. I know the GUI and commands, and they are useful for me. I have all the functions that I want."
"As I am Cisco certified, I like the way that I can program them."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco Ethernet Switches is its hardware."
"The hardware is rugged. We use it for the basic configuration."
"On several occasions we encountered major issues with the solution and have found the Nokia technical support to be quite supportive."
"The most valuable features are user functionality and interoperability."
"The highest value lies in aggregating the data to improve both traffic management and device utilization, emphasizing the importance of engagement and liability."
"The performance and reliability are the solution's most valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the product's availability."
"We'd like the pricing to be lowered."
"One area for improvement could be integrating a single dashboard for both wired and wireless networks."
"In terms of features, all features are there. I can't find anything new that needs to be added. Its price, however, is a bit higher than other brands and can be improved."
"You have to be Cisco-certified to work on Cisco products, so we can't get into Cisco to do even basic configurations."
"The licensing needs to be improved."
"Their firmware could be better secured against vulnerabilities or other exploits. Also, only selected catalyst switches are allowed to onboard to Cisco SD Access technology."
"We've had hardware problems like SSDs, ports, networking, things like that."
"There's are other products that are better for network programmability. Cisco isn't as programmable as some preferred vendors. For example, on iOS 6 products, you have to commit the change directly on the running configuration. If you have a generic product you can do this, so it can improve in programmability."
"I would suggest improvements regarding enhancing support response times and implementing user interface modifications for quicker and more user-friendly interactions."
"I would like to see more collaboration with advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) vendors, such as Itron."
"The segment routing could be improved, and they could also transfer a lot of legacy to the cloud domain."
