We performed a comparison between Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches and HPE 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 fibre ports that are 10 Gb capacity helped with the travel of a lot of regular as well as video data. Fibre can handle a lot more virtual data than copper twisted-pair, so we got a lot more data and a lot more traffic signals back through the fibre ports, faster, than with copper."
"The new web graphical interface is much better than before. We now have easy access to the command lines. They're all functional."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches' best features are it's easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, with services coming through one vendor."
"The solution has a very good web interface. It makes it easy to manage everything."
"We are able to customize this solution based on the customer's requirements."
"Enables direct access to clusters."
"The product is stable. It does have only one power supply. They don't have a redundant power supply."
"This is a dependable switch which will help you sleep at night."
"These switches are very stable, to date I have not experienced any issues."
"The solution is very stable and easy to use."
"The solution is scalable."
"The scalability is very good."
"I like that HPE's management functions are GUI-based, so it doesn't rely on command lines."
"The most valuable feature is the IRF."
"The solution is very, very stable."
"The main features of the solution I have found to be the interface and unique features other solutions do not have. Additionally, they have a lifetime warranty on the hardware."
"OmniSwitch Ethernet Switches would be improved if cloud-based technology was provided in the Gulf region."
"There needs to be better integration with the interface."
"technical support response time is sometimes very slow."
"I could see them possibly creating a more intuitive software. It's very user-friendly, but there are some things that aren't very intuitive when programming the switches."
"The product would be better if it were completely compatible with other switching products."
"I find the CLI hard to use. I wish we could do more in the GUI interface."
"In future versions, I would like to see improvements in networking speed."
"The network connection should be improved."
"It's gone up in price in the last 12 months."
". There is room for improvement in pricing. One box shouldn't require additional installations. We need a package deal with licenses that are usable for different tasks. Right now, we need a license for every additional feature, which adds up."
"The solution could improve by having more integration options."
"There is some improvement needed for the power supply of the solution."
"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."
"It is not very stable."
"Authentication and other security features are not easily satisfied using the lower-end switches."
"The solution is very comparable to Huawei, however, it could be more scalable. Huawei is easier to scale."
