Cons
"This solution is not good for distribution at the core.""The availability could be improved.""They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America.""They need to enhance stability.""The solution's web filtering feature could be improved.""In a future release, the solution could improve by being more secure and allowing the configuration of each port.""It could be easier to scale on managed devices.""The D-Link Ethernet Switches have to be replaced because they are difficult to manage and security is poor. They should add centralized manageability to make the solution better, it will allow administrators to better know what is happening on the network."

More D-Link Ethernet Switches Cons →

"We would like to see additional backup solutions, since we have several degrees of backup.""Huawei Switch can make further advancements, as the current CLI lacks functionality. The majority of tasks are performed through the CLI, making it difficult for those without technical expertise to work with. They should enhance the CLI of the access switches to make them more user-friendly. The GUI of the Ethernet Switches should also be improved to allow non-technical users to perform technical tasks with ease. Additionally, the documentation of the solution could improve.""It could potentially be difficult to get parts depending on where you live.""The technical support is a bit difficult to work with if you don't speak Mandarin.""The configuration could be improved and deployment should be easier.""The stability could be improved.""The durability of the device can be improved.""I have issues with the support's communication language. The tool's UI can be better."
