We performed a comparison between Broadcom StrataDNX and Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches 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."Easy to integrate with any of the other hardware platforms."
"The good thing about the StrataDNX is that the Broadcom family is very interchangeable, so they work well with different optical transceivers."
"The feature I like the most is the ability to reword changes before committing to the change. We can always reword changes in 10 minutes if they don't work."
"The ease of management through the command line interface is very good."
"The scalability is excellent. It's one of the aspects of the solution that is quite good."
"The most valuable feature is that the CLI is the same on all of the Juniper devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls."
"You willuse almost every feature on every switch to some degree because the utility is valuable."
"I like that it's fairly easy to implement these ethernet switches."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches are the simple configuration and ruggedness."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing model."
"The number of surfaces that can be handled by the chipset could be increased."
"Has a steep learning curve."
"Their web GUI interface needs to be a lot better, especially when compared to HP. The command line is good, but you have to know how to get around it. The GUI is clunky and very slow."
"The durability of the devices could be better."
"EX switches take too long to boot when we restart them for maintenance. We need to minimize downtime. Another issue is the command line interface. Juniper's commands are different from other switches, so it's hard to remember them."
"I would like the ability to operate with other operating systems."
"It would be nice to have a more available list of modules that you can get for this solution."
"There are multiple areas of improvement in Juniper EX series switches. In terms of speed and pricing, while Juniper provides good quality services, some clients still find the price very high compared to other competitors. Also there is a need for certain features to be enhanced like clear our configuration process which will help to make Juniper switches more stronger. However, there are also multiple challenges including understanding and configuration of certain aspects difficult without assistance. Despite these kinds of challenges, there have been multiple solutions and huge potential of improvement in Juniper."
"Juniper should improve the support services provided to users, as it is one of its areas with certain shortcomings."
