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."Easy to integrate with any of the other hardware platforms."
"The good thing about the StrataDNX is that the Broadcom family is very interchangeable, so they work well with different optical transceivers."
"I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10 for scalability."
"We have multiple cases of the customers trying to upgrade their network from Cisco, Aruba and Huawei to Juniper. They do this basically because they want to modernise their network and have an increased capacity. This shift improves their functionality because the Juniper Ethernet switches are more advanced. We provide them with assistance to configure switches, access points and Wi-Fi."
"The solution is scalable. It supports my five-year expansion plan. I could expand without a problem."
"The solution has a high level of network functionality."
"The most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches are the simple configuration and ruggedness."
"I like the VLAN capabilities, and the Junos interface is easy to use."
"The solution is easy to use and has good integration."
"Juniper Switches' best feature is its flexibility."
"The number of surfaces that can be handled by the chipset could be increased."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"One potential drawback of the Juniper EX Series has been that those without experience using a command-line interface (CLI) may find it intimidating. However, Junos is working on improving this by offering tools, such as Juniper Mist with Wired Assurance and Apstra. Additionally, the graphical user interface (GUI) could be improved as it has been considered lackluster across the board in Junos."
"Their web GUI interface needs to be a lot better, especially when compared to HP. The command line is good, but you have to know how to get around it. The GUI is clunky and very slow."
"You need to make a few local configurations to work with the solution. We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
"I have found the scalability could be improved in the version I was using."
"They could improve the code, as there are some issues with it."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"The operating system could be better."
"EX switches take too long to boot when we restart them for maintenance. We need to minimize downtime. Another issue is the command line interface. Juniper's commands are different from other switches, so it's hard to remember them."
