Cons
"There should be more public tools for configuration and comparing products.""H3C Ethernet Switches could improve by widening their product range.""GUI needs to merge with CLI.""The only improvement needed is the significantly better lead time for delivery compared to other American products. In terms of technology, there isn't much difference, especially since X3 is a subsidiary of XP, and they use the same technology. However, the delivery time is notably better.""The solution’s stability could be improved.""Lacks decent cloud management."

"We would like to have a greater level of automation using this solution. The customer support could also be faster.""The solution should make the text report more accessible.""I would like to see more training opportunities available.""The pricing could always be improved.""Huawei has a lot of issues; it's not in sync properly. For instance, if the ONT is down, there's another problem with another ONT that is not functioning correctly. Even after configuring the siding, I cannot reach some other side, and I don't know why it's happening.""There needs to be more documentation. If they opened up a bit and shared more information and maybe allowed for YouTube videos about their products and how to work them, it would benefit the users quite a bit.""The availability and the speed of the firmware updates are the only things wrong with Huawei. There are some vulnerabilities on the hardware.""Dashboard could be improved."
