We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches and HPE 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."OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches' best features are it's easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, with services coming through one vendor."
"We are able to customize this solution based on the customer's requirements."
"This is a dependable switch which will help you sleep at night."
"It's easy to extend the stack, We don't use the smaller switches, but it's going well for the rest."
"The fibre ports that are 10 Gb capacity helped with the travel of a lot of regular as well as video data. Fibre can handle a lot more virtual data than copper twisted-pair, so we got a lot more data and a lot more traffic signals back through the fibre ports, faster, than with copper."
"The solution has a very good web interface. It makes it easy to manage everything."
"The product is stable. It does have only one power supply. They don't have a redundant power supply."
"The new web graphical interface is much better than before. We now have easy access to the command lines. They're all functional."
"HPE Ethernet Switches are easy to configure."
"The performance is great."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The simplicity of the commands is most valuable. The commands are the same for several devices."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's stable. We never have any issues."
"These switches are very stable, to date I have not experienced any issues."
"We get a lifetime warranty for the solution so whenever the switches get faulty, you can get a replacement."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"The network connection should be improved."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"I could see them possibly creating a more intuitive software. It's very user-friendly, but there are some things that aren't very intuitive when programming the switches."
"The product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"The pricing could be better."
"It would be helpful to have training available for this solution."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"The product could always use better technical support."
"There is some improvement needed for the power supply of the solution."
"We haven't had any issues with this switch in the past 10 years. That's the reason we're still keeping them alive."
"The next release would benefit from adding a central management that could be deployable on premise and allow you to see the layout of topology."
"I would also like to see a more centralized private management console for the series of devices. Most solutions are adopting centralized cloud-based management, but my client base believes cloud solutions are too insecure. You've got a few dozen switches, so it would be nice to have the ability to manage them on a "single pane of glass.""
