We performed a comparison between Aruba Switches and H3C Ethernet 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."All of the networking products that we use are Aruba, so we use Aruba Central to manage them."
"a value-for-money product and comparatively a very reasonable price compared to competitors like SAP or IBM."
"Aruba offers better options when it comes to the area of scalability compared to what Cisco offers. Aruba has a better graphical user interface that helps users with the configuration part."
"Aruba Switches are definitely stable."
"The most valuable aspect for our organization is the CX. It's wonderful."
"The most valuable feature is the Aruba Smart Rate Port."
"The solution is very reliable. It's easy to use with other solutions."
"I like the number of available throughputs and its ability to have different speeds of ethernet cards or fiber-optic SFPs. It's a core switch, and you can configure it as per your requirements. All the configuration details are well documented on the HP website or Aruba website, and one can easily refer to those and find all the relevant commands from the documentation itself. It's also easy to maintain this solution. It's also cheaper than competing products."
"Offering a five-year warranty, compared to competitors' one-year warranties, is a unique advantage of H3C switches."
"H3C Ethernet Switches is a cheap solution."
"The best feature of H3C Ethernet Switches is their reliability."
"To date, it has proven to be highly reliable. We have encountered no issues or challenges with it thus far."
"We can configure the switch stack on the internet. Other vendors do not offer this facility. It is fast and easy to manage."
"A good high-performance solution."
"H3C Ethernet Switches have a fast delivery time."
"Aruba's website should be localized to support the Indonesian language. The content of their website and the help desk should be in the Indonesian language."
"It would be better and easier for us to buy if the price were reduced."
"It would be good if I could get a 24-port, 10 gig module."
"I would like to see something like a Cisco Prime, an application controlling the entire system, switches, and access points."
"I would like to see the data center area improving by some added features in the future."
"The command-line interface could be easier to use, perhaps having voice control."
"The templates to automate our switches need improvement."
"It takes a long time to import Aruba switches to Ecuador."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"There should be more public tools for configuration and comparing products."
"Lacks decent cloud management."
"To enhance H3C switches for the next release, improving the user interface is crucial."
"H3C Ethernet Switches could improve by widening their product range."
"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."
"GUI needs to merge with CLI."
