We performed a comparison between Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches and NETGEAR Switches 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."The ease of management through the command line interface is very good."
"It is very valuable for SRX devices and we have found it very easy to configure."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The combination of hardware and software makes it a very good solution. It is a modern protocol that they have supported in the switches. The solution has good performance."
"It is stable."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches are high-end solutions."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' most valuable feature is the Juniper-Mist cloud, which facilitates management of the switches and access points."
"For what I used this switch for, it did well."
"It's nice, if there is an issue, to be able to go in through the remote. The fact that the remote doesn't require a static IP... is nice. They initiate the contact to the outside world, without requiring a static to get in."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The stability is good. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"NETGEAR Switches has valuable cybersecurity features."
"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."
"The tool is very easy to deploy as it is a very basic switch."
"With this, you literally just log in to a website, see all your clients, all your NETGEAR switches, and you can manage them all right there: the VLANs, powering on and off individual ports, rebooting the whole device, the firmware updates. Everything can be done remotely..."
"The security features for the product should be more unified for the product regardless of the product model."
"The stability could be better. We find, for example, Cisco, to be more stable."
"The operating system, Junos OS, often has bugs which forces rollbacks or additional upgrades to resolve."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"Wireless and monitoring definitely could be improved."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches would be improved by upgrading the uplink port in EX2300 categories service from 10G to 25G."
"The price is in the intermediate range. It is not overly expensive, but also not cheap. It could stand improvement."
"The initial setup of switches is not that simple."
"This product lacks a CLI interface."
"There is a lack of documentation, and the documentation I have is unclear, so I have to rely on Google for information."
"The product's stability has certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the response time for technical support."
"There are some design issues on which they really missed the boat. The problem has to do with rack mounting them because the lights and jacks should all be on the front, and the power on the back. The way they did it makes it really difficult to use them in a rack environment, because when the lights are on the opposite side of the jacks... you usually can't see the back side of a rack. You can't get back there to see, so it's just crazy."
"NETGEAR Switches could be more secure. Scalability could also be better. This infrastructure is a bit old, and we need something that will be more secure. Something that will introduce WLAN, and we will need the knowledge to go with that. Some of the switches were used for more than seven years. I think it was just their lifespan that was exhausted. But other than that, there haven't been any issues that required us to complain or get concerned."
"There's a lack of chips and, consequently, a lack of deliveries. They're out of stock at their European warehouse."
"One area that has room for improvement, and I know NETGEAR is working on it, is adding more features to the products lines in terms of what we can manage through the Insight portal... not all Layer 2 or Layer 3 settings are there yet."
