HPE Enterprise Routers Reviews

We use the solution for designing network connections for buildings, including routers, switches, wireless LANs, firewalls, etc.

They should provide additional technical support for obsolete equipment. Sometimes, I deal with projects that need reusing existing older equipment models. In this case, I require help from the solution's support team.

We have been using the solution for more than five years.

We need to configure hot standby routing protocols to maintain the solution's stability.

The solution has excellent scalability. We can easily upgrade it to different network systems, WAN service providers, or ISPs.

The solution's customer service could be better for older equipment models.

Neutral

The solution's initial setup is straightforward.

The solution is cost-effective compared to its competitors. I rate its pricing as an eight.

The solution is reasonably priced and easy to configure. By collaborating with Aruba, they have integrated more products to streamline the porting process. Our project team comprises two or three network engineers for regular maintenance and troubleshooting. The workload is not heavy. 

I rate the solution as an eight and recommend it to network engineers and solution providers.

I primarily use the solution for the routing capabilities. We use them alongside switches for a small businesses. It provides WiFi distribution for schools, universities, and smaller projects. It's used in the networking department as a standard switch. 

It's useful for WiFi distribution for small business connections. It's helpful for smaller projects. 

The solution offers good networking. 

The availability is very good. 

It is more durable than other products in the market.

The cost of ownership is very good, especially compared to Cisco, which has a high cost.

It's easy to set up.

The solution is expensive. 

I've been using the solution for around ten years or so. 

This is a stable, reliable product. I'd rate it nine out of ten in terms of stability. There are no bugs or glitches. 

The solution can scale well. I'd rate it nine out of ten. We can extend it easily.

We have about 20 clients using HP routers as an enterprise tool.

Technical support is responsive. They are helpful, and we are happy with the level of service.

I'm also familiar with Cisco, which has more features, yet is more expensive. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. It has a nice GUI interface that makes the process easy. 

The deployment time depends on the technical expertise of the user, and it also depends on the size of the project. 

We have four engineers that can handle deployment and maintenance in our organization. 

We are able to deploy the solution for clients. 

The license is expensive. Customers need to pay a yearly subscription fee. 

I'm not sure of the exact version number I'm using at this time. 

We're a reseller, We have a partnership with HP. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users.

U'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

We use the HPE routers to connect the branch offices to our central data center. We have more than 14,000 employees on our networks. 

HPE routers are easier to manage than any other router I've used. 

I'd like to see more security features, like support for different types of encryptions.

I've used HPE Enterprise routers for more than four years.

HPE routers are pretty reliable. 

HPE routers are scalable.

HPE technical support is decent, but we had issues getting help from their partners, including supply delays and slow response. However, direct support from HPE is fairly reliable. 

HPE routers are easy to set up, and the installation takes about four or five hours per router. 

We used a consultant. 

The ROI is relatively high. I estimate that the solution paid for itself in about 18 months. 

We paid around 120,000 rupees for one HPE router.

I rate HPE Enterprise Routers six out of 10. HPE routers are pretty stable, but Fortinet is another good option. They have much better security capabilities. The HPE routers are doing their job within our network setup, but we use Fortinet and Cisco for critical points.

We primarily use the solution for an access layer, all layer distribution. 

The deployment is easy.

The web-based management is great. 

Its ISR is good.

We found the product to be stable.

It has good scalability.

Its pricing is fair.

Technical support could be better. The response could be better and faster. The rest is fine. 

We've been using the solution for five to seven years. 

It's a stable solution. It's reliable and the performance is good. It doesn't crash or freeze and there are no bugs or glitches. 

The solution can easily be scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it can.

We have between 500 to 1000 people using the solution. Various departments use it. It's not just for our engineers.

Technical support is okay. It needs a bit of improvement, however, overall, it's good.

Positive

The solution is easy to deploy. It's not overly difficult or complex. 

We've had two to three developers that are able to handle the implementation process. It took two to three weeks to deploy.

We've seen an ROI and it's pretty good.

We find the pricing to be reasonable. HP is giving a limited lifetime warranty for hardware, which is good compared to other options. The licensing includes everything. You don't need to pay extra fees. 

We are an HPE partner.

I'd rate the solution a ten out of ten. We are quite happy with its capabilities overall.

We use this solution to build private clouds for the Slovak government. 

These routers help us to provide high availability to our clusters. This is helpful because we develop custom software that integrates with them.

The most valuable feature is stability.

The price is expensive and could be made more competitive.

Better management tools are needed.

The integration with other products should be improved.

We have been using HP Enterprise Routers for more than ten years.

The stability is okay. We haven't had any big issues with the network.

These routers scale enough for our purposes and we haven't had any problem. Our client has about 4,500 users.

We have also worked with enterprise routers from Cisco. Those are used almost exclusively by government departments because of the price. They are very expensive.

We also use Huawei routers for smaller solutions.

Our internal team provides first, second, and third-level support to our customers.

In this Slovak market, this is an expensive product.

Quality-wise, this product is somewhere between Huawei and Cisco. It is more stable the Huawei and cheaper than Cisco. It is a product that I recommend.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I don't personally use the solution, but for my customers who are enterprise companies we generally go with a modular version which is the HSR, MSR series. We use high-end enterprise routers and I work as an independent consultant for these companies.

The most valuable feature would be the support for cellular range for Wi-Fi technologies, there is extensive support available. We also have the option of writing a 4G or a 3G network. I heard they are coming out with 5G now, but that depends on Huawei rolling it out in India. Manageability of the routers is very good. 

Compatibility with other platforms could be improved. It's mostly around agreeing on security compatibility with other platforms, that's where we have to do a lot of integration.

The same applies for additional features with regard to compatibility and security. Going forward I'd like to see compatibility with an application firewall, and an anti-spam solution. 

I've been providing this solution to my customers for the past few years. 

It's a stable solution. 

It's a scalable solution. 

I'm very satisfied with the technical support we've received. 

Initial setup is straightforward. Deployment time really depends on the network condition at the time. With all the resources in place we'll put in a router and have it up and running in less than a day. Deployment time and number of staff involved really depends on the number of routers that you're trying to manage and on the client's site. 

Licensing costs really depend on the size of the company and their requirements so it's hard to provide an amount.

Cisco was a potential option that we evaluated. 

I would rate this product an eight out of 10. 

HPE Enterprise Routers in Brazil provides a stable network for projects and customer service, especially for data centers and disaster recovery. It also makes it easy to update the network technology and manage multiple deals, all without needing technical knowledge.

HPE Enterprise Routers are among the best, maybe even better than Cisco. 

They should work on lowering their prices in Brazil to stay competitive with rivals and offer customers more affordable options.

I have been using the solution for six years.

Technical support for HPE Enterprise Routers is excellent, with a great knowledge base. The team working with Versa Networks is highly skilled and provides valuable training materials. I would rate it a ten out of ten.

Positive

It is on the expensive side.
