We performed a comparison between HPE Ethernet Switches and MikroTik Cloud Router Switch 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."It's straightforward to set up."
"What I like the most is the management system integrated with the HP system."
"Stable and scalable."
"The initial setup is straightforward. The steps are simple, and you can always contact support if needed. Overall, it's easy."
"HPE Ethernet Switches are easy to configure."
"The most valuable feature is that they all have PoE. It's one of the most important things that we need in the EdgeSwitch."
"The solution is very stable and easy to use."
"We can easily replace components without incurring significant costs in an error or failure."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is that it has better throughput than its competitors."
"This solution is very similar to the on-premises version making it easy to use for those who know the architect."
"I like that it's quite flexible and addresses different issues. It's quite easy to use, and the pricing is great. We find them to be very capable switches."
"The performance has been good."
"The tool has impacted our company's network costs and productivity in a perfect manner and percentage-wise, I can say it is 120 percent."
"It's a well-rounded solution for routing."
"It is user-friendly, reliable, and cheap."
"There is some improvement needed for the power supply of the solution."
"It's gone up in price in the last 12 months."
"The VLAN tagging could be improved,"
"If there is any fluctuation in power then we will face an outage with our POE switches, so this is something that should be improved."
"Some users might look for high-speed switching like Cisco or Nexus switches, which can handle larger volumes. HPE's current offerings aren't as robust in that area, but they could improve."
"Sometimes, we encounter the need for new technologies, especially when we require higher bandwidth. If we can't find what we need with HPE Ethernet Switches, we explore options from other vendors like Cisco."
"We would always be happier if the price were reduced."
"The quality of the service needs improvement."
"It would be even better with a centralized management platform."
"The user interface could improve and they should allow a license for IBS."
"MikroTik needs to add some features like IPS, mail security, or antivirus, et cetera."
"Antispam and antivirus features should be included in the future."
"There has to be more development in the OS. It's complex for this switch as compared to others like Cisco. For NetGear and Cisco, it's easy to adapt the VLAN concept but it should be simplified for MikroTik."
"Improvements are needed with respect to some of the security, especially for VPN links between vendors other than Cisco."
"The bulk efficiencies and the control of traffic could be a bit better."
"In medium to large sectors, there's a necessity for managing aspects like proxy firewalls."
