We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Huawei 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 scalable."
"The solution is very stable."
"The user-friendly policy manager lets us apply different controls for various user groups easily."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"They support open standard features."
"Arista Networks Platform offers straightforward deployment, and has good features. Support for the platform is also good."
"What we like most is its performance to price ratio."
"I like the spine as a leaf model and low latency. The hardware is robust and meets expected latency in all environments, mainly if you belong to the media or trading industry. For multicast-based solutions, Arista is number one."
"The tool’s pricing is reasonable. It has a high throughput capacity."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are very stable."
"The affordability of this solution has been most useful."
"They last quite a while."
"One scenario where Huawei Ethernet Switches improved network efficiency was last year when a customer needed switches with 10 gigabits, which are not very common in the market. Huawei provided this kind of switch, enabling the customer to upgrade their network from 1 gigabit to 10 gigabit speeds across all devices."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its network monitoring system."
"This product is competitive technically with the best products in the class."
"It is easy to understand all the features of Huawei Switches."
"I want the solution to include a unified controller."
"The solution is a bit pricey."
"They need to enhance their code and their EOS. They need to improve some security features, and there are quite a number of bugs in their system. So, they need to work on that piece. In the next release, we need to have a modular feature. Instead of providing an integrated solution, they should go for something modular. They need to come up with modular highly scalable models. Even at the chassis layer, I want to see some improvement."
"The community is good but is not good enough. It still needs to grow more."
"A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"Its price can be better."
"The solution needs to improve their product range."
"The documentation needs to be better."
"Devices should have the ability to configure more easily."
"The configuration could be improved and deployment should be easier."
"The graphical user interface could be much better."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement. It could be more stable as well."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches have not automated its firmware."
"There are some support issues."
"Huawei has a lot of issues; it's not in sync properly. For instance, if the ONT is down, there's another problem with another ONT that is not functioning correctly. Even after configuring the siding, I cannot reach some other side, and I don't know why it's happening."
