Functions efficiently and is cheaper than what its competitors offer

In general, the product works fine and is efficient. It was mainly used by someone else in my company, and I just used to operate it The solution's most valuable feature is its stability because Arista falls in an industry that is very similar to Cisco. If the engineer knows Cisco's solution,…

A convenient interface that is easy to use, and the technical support is good

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The feature sets are pretty cool. They've got almost everything that the competition offers."

"QoS is the most valuable feature because our clients work with VOIP and Critical applications."

"The solution's most valuable feature is its stability because Arista falls in an industry that is very similar to Cisco."

"The CloudVision Portal allows us to centrally manage all of our Arista products."

"HPE ProCurve is very complex for junior engineers and beginners. You need a lot of experience in managing switches in order to use this switch."

"The solution is fast and inexpensive."

"One of the biggest things in HPE ProCurve that I like, though not necessarily a feature, is the HPE warranty because it's probably better than any of the other vendors that we deal with, as it has a lifetime replacement. Feature-wise, the web interface of HPE ProCurve is typically pretty good and I like that as well."

"It is easy to deploy."

"The network management solutions that they have is great."

"The user interface is the most valuable aspect of the solution for us."

"Its easy manageability is most valuable. It's easy to manage."

"Inter-VLAN is a great feature."

More HPE ProCurve pros

Cons

"It would be ideal if the solution was less expensive."

"One of the issues that we have been faced with here in Brazil is that we don't have any list times for delivery."

"I would like to see a version available with eight or sixteen ports."

"The complex setup phase is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"There should be faster interfaces on the switch, such as 25 gigabits."

"We do occasionally have issues with the solution and need to change out the switches sometimes. This can be due to the fan, but, in most cases, it's because the power supply was broken."

"HPE ProCurve's web interface is old, and I have to log in on each device separately, making them the product's shortcomings that need improvement."

"Since we transfer from one gigabit to ten gigabits of information, in a future release, it would benefit to have more high-speed ports."

"The only things that might need improvement would be the administrative tools and the graphical interface. The GUI could be improved on the administrative interface, for example."

"Procurve would work better if it had more options like the web environment."

"The product must provide something similar to Cisco’s command-line interface."

"The solution should offer different gigabit interfaces. Right now, they have ten gigabits. However, for our needs, we only need one gigabit. We don't need 24 or 48 ports. We only need eight to ten. HPE should introduce into their portfolio some smaller and more compact options."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is not that good, but our clients value the solution despite the price."

"The only licensing costs are for CloudVision, although the upfront price of the device is not cheap."

"The product has a good price compared to other solutions."

"You buy the switch and that's it."

"The price could be more competitive."

"The price of this product is cheap."

"We have an annual support subscription."

"There is no need to pay for the solution's license."
