We performed a comparison between Broadcom StrataDNX and Juniper EX Series 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."The good thing about the StrataDNX is that the Broadcom family is very interchangeable, so they work well with different optical transceivers."
"Easy to integrate with any of the other hardware platforms."
"Juniper supports all our connectivity infrastructure in our datacenter, supporting optimal availability and performance for services."
"The solution is stable and scalable."
"I like that it's fairly easy to implement these ethernet switches."
"The campus switches and access switches are the most valuable and simple to deploy for Virtual Chassis."
"This is a lower cost product with better features than the competition."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It's pretty good as compared to other vendors."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"The number of surfaces that can be handled by the chipset could be increased."
"I would like the ability to operate with other operating systems."
"Support could be improved."
"The updates are constantly breaking."
"There are multiple areas of improvement in Juniper EX series switches. In terms of speed and pricing, while Juniper provides good quality services, some clients still find the price very high compared to other competitors. Also there is a need for certain features to be enhanced like clear our configuration process which will help to make Juniper switches more stronger. However, there are also multiple challenges including understanding and configuration of certain aspects difficult without assistance. Despite these kinds of challenges, there have been multiple solutions and huge potential of improvement in Juniper."
"Juniper's support could be much better and faster."
"The difficulty of the installation of Juniper Ethernet Switches depends on the environment it is being implemented in. It is fairly straightforward in terms of being able to source the technical information as we need it. However, this process could improve."
"We are undergoing a migration to software-defined networking. Different vendors have to integrate with each other and we are not seeing this type of capability within Juniper. We are getting left behind in this technology trend by staying with this solution. Juniper is also losing a bit of market share because of this."
"Juniper needs to get their code up to par because it isn't stable enough for a leaf and spine design."
