We performed a comparison between Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches and D-Link 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 solution is reliable."
"Cisco Linksys is scalable. You can use it as an extender, too."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is it is easy to manage."
"I would recommend Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches to other organizations."
"The most valuable feature is that we can configure the security to suit our needs."
"It is very stable. Performance is very good."
"it's a stable solution. We have not experienced any bugs or issues. Many data centers and enterprise data centers prefer Cisco to any other product because they are very stable."
"The installation process is straightforward."
"The tool's fault frequency is very less."
"The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly."
"D-Link has a good VPN feature and quality of service."
"The solution is scalable."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The product is simple to manage."
"D-Link has a graphical interface that is easy to use. It is simple enough that our junior technicians can configure the switches."
"We use the solution for the network and ethernet connection."
"Linksys support is subpar."
"It should be cheaper. We need a better price from Cisco. Its initial setup and support should also be improved."
"The installation could be simplified."
"It's an old tool that needs to be more competitive with other solutions that are available on the market such as HP, or Dell."
"It would be ideal if they could do more configurations and offer more flexibility. Right now, it's not flexible at all."
"The licensing could be simplified."
"Another area of improvement is scalability."
"It would be ideal if, for private users that are not companies, the solution could be made even cheaper."
"The technical support needs a lot of improvement."
"I'd like to see a central management system included as part of their license, not as a separate purchase. Currently, we have to manage switches independently. A central portal for managing all switches and providing visibility would be great."
"Its security features need improvement."
"This solution is not good for distribution at the core."
"The D-Link Ethernet Switches have to be replaced because they are difficult to manage and security is poor. They should add centralized manageability to make the solution better, it will allow administrators to better know what is happening on the network."
"In a future release, the solution could improve by being more secure and allowing the configuration of each port."
"The solution needs to improve layer 2 switches."
"They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America."
