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."Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution has good load latency. They're the market leader in this aspect right now."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"Arista Networks Platform offers straightforward deployment, and has good features. Support for the platform is also good."
"The most valuable aspect of Arista Networks products is their ease of configuration, especially when compared to Cisco products. When we implement advanced features for data centers such as BGP EVPN and VXLAN, Arista's configuration process is similar to that of Cisco's process, but at the same time it is simply much easier, clearer, and more understandable."
"It's an extremely reliable platform for the network switches we use."
"The solution is scalable."
"We find the CloudVision switching feature of this solution really useful."
"The most valuable feature is the audit systems. I also like that it can synchronize on the alternate configuration of products together at the same time."
"The most valuable features are that it is easy to use, easy to configure, it's priced well, and the operating system is easy to understand."
"The functionality is basically the same as Cisco."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches come with native ACs."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches also have effective network switching features."
"Pricing-wise, Huawei is quite good."
"It is a stable product. I rate it a nine out of ten...It is a scalable solution."
"The required functionalities align with telecom requirements and have improved from a capacity perspective."
"They should have a more stable code."
"A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
"An area for improvement in Arista Networks Platform is its integration, e.g. it needs to have more integration with its new products. Incorporating more security and cloud is also another area for improvement in the platform."
"The solution needs to accommodate new features."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"Something that you will often hear about Arista products is that the price is a bit too high and, like with Cisco, we sometimes have problems with our customers because of its pricing."
"The intent-based networking management, together with the provider of these solutions that are already free, would be beneficial."
"The configuration could be improved and deployment should be easier."
"The stability could be improved."
"I had issues with patching the IOS. But right now I think Huawei has improved very much in the advanced technology and is more stable now. I think patch and bug fixes should be announced on a scheduled basis."
"The tool is not very robust in harsh environments. Issues with cooling and power can cause these switches to fail, which concerns customers. They work well in data centers but might be problematic in places without cooling or heat."
"The product's stability has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."
"I would like the tool to improve its operational efficiency, speed, security features, and functionalities."
"Dashboard could be improved."
"The graphical user interface could be much better."
