We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
The most valuable feature is the standard routing protocol. The stability of Juniper is better than Cisco's. The flexibility of the MPLS configuration is very good. The solution is quite stable. We've found it to be very good. There aren't bugs, glitches, or crashes. Users are able to easily configure the whole solution via simple data. I think that the extensions are very valuable. The way you can test the configuration before applying that configuration permanently is very helpful. The rollback configuration is also very useful. On the SRX, the firewall is very easy to configure, especially when you want to filter out traffic. The most valuable feature is the capacity of the throughput for the firewall. | We make use of a script that will automatically re-route traffic when connections are slow. The solution offers very good multi-routing. We're very happy with what we are getting out of the solution in general. The features are good. They're comparable to other brands such as Cisco and HP. The best part about MikroTik Routers is the price. The flexible IP firewall and IP network address translation make it very easy to give access to internal services. We have found this solution is quite robust and there are a lot of features in a small device. The most valuable feature is controlling the bandwidth. The cost and versatility are the solution's most valuable features. You can do anything with them if you know how to. The solution has a whole portfolio of routing features available. |
Cons | |
Enhancing the capacity would be a welcome improvement. Better documentation to assist with implementation would be helpful. If you are setting up a site-to-site VPN between a Juniper and Cisco device then you may encounter some issues. The solution needs to offer SDN features. One thing that the product can do better is clustering. Rather than just having two of them, it would help if there was one cluster to extend to more notes in the cluster itself. In terms of improvement, I would like for it to effectively protect against the broadcast storms, multicast storms, and DDoS attacks. Most IT equipment now has graphical interfaces, and there is a need for the Juniper routers to have a more intuitive web interface. The price of this solution should be improved. | The manageability of the web-based UI needs to be improved. The solution needs to improve its security firewalls and mirror that of, for example, Sophos, or FortiGate. The solution's website isn't that good. When I go to it, I can't find what I'm looking for. However, if I go to a third party's website, I can easily find the information. The biggest thing that needs improvement is the support. I would like to see a cluster feature added, where multiple devices can be configured and managed as one. One is in a standby state while the other is active, and if one fails then the other takes over. In the Israeli market, we are in need of Hebrew support. The user interface allows you to do a lot of things, but it is not user-friendly. They could improve their product if they set, for instance, a controller for wireless LAN. That would allow them to really have something more than an access point. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
An additional license can be purchased for support of a next-generation firewall. | This product is cheaper than competing products by other vendors. There is no licensing fee in addition to the hardware, but we do pay an annual fee for support. In our last project, we used two hundred units and the price was approximately 500 Shekels ($140 USD). This product is a one-time purchase. More MikroTik Routers and Switches Pricing and Cost Advice » |
