We performed a comparison between Broadcom StrataDNX 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 good thing about the StrataDNX is that the Broadcom family is very interchangeable, so they work well with different optical transceivers."
"Easy to integrate with any of the other hardware platforms."
"You can scale the product as needed."
"It's fairly lightweight, they don't require a lot of maintenance."
"It is a stable product."
"The solution's interface is helpful, and you can see the traffic."
"The performance is great."
"HPE Ethernet Switches have a lifetime warranty. I am using an old version of the solution, but I have heard the new models have incorporated a lot of new features, such as remote setup."
"The most valuable feature in HPE Ethernet Switches is programmability and analytics."
"I have found the most valuable feature is stability."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"The number of surfaces that can be handled by the chipset could be increased."
"The VLAN tagging could be improved,"
"It would be helpful to have training available for this solution."
"They should continue to work on new features."
"Some users might look for high-speed switching like Cisco or Nexus switches, which can handle larger volumes. HPE's current offerings aren't as robust in that area, but they could improve."
"Sometimes, we encounter the need for new technologies, especially when we require higher bandwidth. If we can't find what we need with HPE Ethernet Switches, we explore options from other vendors like Cisco."
"The quality of the service needs improvement."
"I would also like to see a more centralized private management console for the series of devices. Most solutions are adopting centralized cloud-based management, but my client base believes cloud solutions are too insecure. You've got a few dozen switches, so it would be nice to have the ability to manage them on a "single pane of glass.""
"The pricing could be better."
