We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Avaya Ethernet Switches [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, HPE Aruba Networking, Ubiquiti Networks and others in Ethernet Switches."It's an extremely reliable platform for the network switches we use."
"It is very stable. It has good hardware and very stable code. It provides good value for its price. They are a very lean type of organization, so they are very responsive, and they're able to focus more on their platform versus having multiple products out there."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"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."
"The most valuable features of the Arista Networks Platform are the EVPN and VXLAN. It has comprehensive features."
"The solution is very stable."
"They support open standard features."
"Arista Networks Platform is comfortable, easy to deploy, and easy to manage, with non-blocking technology. Additionally, it has a useful CloudVision platform and automation capabilities."
"The initial setup was straightforward. I installed it myself."
"This solution is very reliable and works well under harsh environmental circumstances."
"They should have a more stable code."
"The product fails to offer functions related to cloud orchestration, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"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 overall price of the Arista Networks Platform is expensive. It should be reduced."
"The solution needs to improve their product range."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
"I want the solution to include a unified controller."
"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 CLI syntax for this solution is different from other switches such as Cisco and Juniper, and it takes us a long time to integrate a new device and get it working properly."
"I think there is a need for more support of new generation technologies."
