The initial setup of Silver Peak VX is easy. The process took approximately one week. 

I rate the install setup of Silver Peak VX a nine out of ten.

The initial setup is very easy and not confusing. Once you have the EdgeConnect's serial number, integrating it with Orchestrate is easy. It automatically connects to the server gate.

The initial setup is simple. Companies buy it because it's simple to set up and configure.

The initial setup was quite easy. I would rate it a nine out of ten.

The initial setup of Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect is not straightforward. It took us approximately four hours to deploy.

Regarding the initial setup, once the training has been done and one is in the job of practice, then the solution is quite simple. We also have junior resources perfectly performing the initial setup of the devices during the network deployment.

On a scale of one to ten, where one being difficult setup and ten being easy setup, I rate the setup an eight.

The solution is deployed on the cloud. It is directly on the Aruba cloud.

Now I think that we have a very good process, and we are able to make a deployment in two to three hours.

Normally, one person on-site and one remote person for configuration are required during deployment.

The initial setup is simple.

The setup is really easy. Even without a demo, we can easily implement using the guide. 

The initial setup of Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect is straightforward. The full setup of one customer network on the 14 branches took us approximately 48 hours. This includes the installation of hardware, other solutions, and the installation switches on the branches

The product's installation is straightforward, and the GUI is easy to understand. We can deploy about ten sites within a day. The first step of deployment is information gathering. The next step is to come up with a design. After the design phase, we will preconfigure the tool and send it to the site, after which it is plug-and-play. 

You need experience to do the deployment. It is not complex. We did the deployment within a week. You have to deploy the product in both locations and configure it. 

The initial setup is straightforward, requiring two engineers for onsite and remote each. The deployment typically takes less than an hour. However, installing Cisco ENC devices, such as the 5403 or 5400, can be more challenging and require additional troubleshooting.

It's easy to deploy and easy to manage. They have fewer elements than all the other vendors. They have only two elements, their dashboard, and their appliance.

As an example, with the last five last branches, it was implemented in two days.

The initial setup and deployment are quite simple. You can just log in to the device and it will guide you. It will give you a deployment page, you can get your IPs, click Ok, and you're done. You don't need to invest much time. The deployment guide is there if you need it.

The platform is easy to install. It requires only one executive for maintenance.

Silver Peak VX is simple to set up because we have people trained with certification and do the implementation. Most projects take approximately one week, but it can depend on the complexity of the installation environment. If it is a more difficult project it could take up to a month to implement.

The process was very straightforward for the initial setup. It was so straightforward, even I could do one. And for executive management to be able to do an implementation is saying a lot.

The setup was very straightforward in that connecting the hardware is three wires - four wires if you include a power cable. So once you have the unit, what we term "rack and stack" and we would send pictures to the site and it didn't have to be an IT person to plug this in. We would show them that exactly this color cable goes in this slot, this color cable goes in that slot and then turn it on. And as soon as it's on, then we'll take it from there. And my team would finish the setups, but the site needed to have a public IP address, which was typically not an issue. And then once we configured the site and tested the traffic over it was almost plug and play. Very rarely did we have any special kinds of troubleshooting. If we were not told all of the IP address ranges that a site typically had, then that could have been an issue. But once you've learned that and you've written down the lessons learned for it, we never had that issue again because we would make sure that the sites would tell us every IP address range so that we would not miss any IP addresses that needed to go through the Silver Peak device.

It was very straightforward and we could start reporting on a site what their current bandwidth was, what their traffic speed was when they're getting a full 10 megabit per second or what was the degree of deduplication and traffic shaping that was being done. Sometimes I would talk to the application developers and say, look, your application is constantly doing this and sending huge amounts of data over the WAN; how about if you didn't do that and redo your application to be more efficient in the data transmissions. A lot of them did that and that to me was a kind of an offshoot benefit. It allows you to be able to look at inefficient applications that need to be written in a much more SDLC format.

The deployment would predominantly take roughly three to four days to bring a site online. That was once the equipment was on-site and we had a site contact who could unbox the machine, unbox the box, rack it and stack it and power it up and then we would get it configured and then it would be ready for traffic for testing. So I'd say it would take about a week.
