We performed a comparison between Enterasys Ethernet Switches [EOL] and NETGEAR Switches based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Ubiquiti Networks and others in Ethernet Switches."This is a big telco switch with six slots."
"Enterasys Ethernet Switches are stable."
"The High Bandwidth AV-over-IP functionality of these switches has been fantastic, especially in leaf-and-spine. We've been able to build redundancy and they seem to outperform even the Cisco Catalyst, which is about twice as expensive as the M-series switches are."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use."
"The remote troubleshooting features provide a single pane of glass where I can see my all my clients' equipment. If they're reporting a problem, I can go to the Insight Pro interface online and I can bring up that client and I can see all their devices and the status of all their devices."
"The solution is reliable and it is easy to setup."
"The tool is stable."
"I'm satisfied with the stability of NETGEAR Switches."
"The remote troubleshooting is pretty easy. You can turn off a port that might have a network loop created, or where there might be a bad NIC card that is creating issues. Being able to turn off that port remotely is fantastic, instead of having to replace the whole switch. Remote management is really easy."
"We have one client that has three Insight switches and when we make a change to their network... we can make the configuration change and push it down to all three switches at once. We don't have to individually log on to each switch to make the change."
"Enterasys could provide better support, needs an improved user interface and improved performance."
"The initial setup could be made simpler."
"The web interface has been a little sketchy on occasion. Sometimes I have to reload the page to get things to show up properly, but the switch itself seems fine. The web user interface is a little wonky at times."
"The product's scalability has certain shortcomings that can be improved."
"The IGMP specifics of the web management console could use a bit of clarification."
"Centralized monitoring is there, but competitors like Cisco Prime are at a higher level of centralized monitoring."
"The ‘how-to’ guides could do with some improvements. We got in trouble following the stacking and Dante set-up guides. If these would have been accurate, we would not have lost three days."
"There are a lot of systems that are moving into different areas. There are a lot of cloud-based things happening. One nice feature that I've seen in other switches is artificial intelligence on the actual porting. They've got AI technology that will tell you when a port is down. They not only tell you when a port is down; they also tell you when a port is running slower. You can do a cable-fault check, or you can do other checks. It would be nice to have this information in NETGEAR. This feature might already be there in a new release of the NETGEAR's firmware, but I haven't seen it."
"Lacks switches with additional ports that provide room for new protocols of communications."
"There is a lack of documentation, and the documentation I have is unclear, so I have to rely on Google for information."
