"Both Juniper and Cisco switches are interoperable."
"The Juniper Ethernet switch feature I find the most valuable is reliability."
"You willuse almost every feature on every switch to some degree because the utility is valuable."
"The most valuable feature is that Juniper is multiple kernels, so there's isolation, which means you won't get a process that runs away, creating problems across the whole platform."
"The most valuable feature is switching on our network."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"Juniper switches are very good with MPLS."
"The solution is stable and scalable."
"It has good integration with HPE Primera. They have smart zoning in which the administration is very easy. You don't have to do anything. Zoning and other things are done automatically if you just enable the smart zoning. That's one very good thing in HP."
"The switches last for a very long time."
"I have not had any issues with our Brocade switches."
"The reliability of Brocade is the most valuable feature. The solution has been up and running for over ten years without any fail, fixes required, or breakdowns. It is a very strong piece of equipment."
"Linksys Switches are stable."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is it is easy to manage."
"The product is great for networking."
"The most valuable feature is that we can configure the security to suit our needs."
"For a home or small business, the solution offers a very good web interface."
"The most valuable features are virtualization and micro-segmentation."
"My work is able to continue because the switches are reliable."
"Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is stable."
"The management tools are limited in their abilities, and suffer from upgrade problems."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches' operating systems get corrupted when the power fails. They have to improve this issue. I may have to use a newer version."
"In an upcoming release, Juniper Ethernet Switches could improve by having more microservices."
"The initial setup for Juniper switches is complex. Juniper has a new program that solves that problem a little bit, but it is expensive, so I don't use it. It is Juniper Mesh, Juniper Wire, or something like that where you plug in a switch, and it goes out to their cloud, finds a config, and brings it down. So, you can do everything cloud-based, but there is a fee for that. It is expensive, so I've never used it. If we were starting, we would try to do something like that. It is more for a large enterprise for managing hundreds of switches versus what we're doing. They should make its price more cost-effective or include it for new or smaller companies."
"The price is in the intermediate range. It is not overly expensive, but also not cheap. It could stand improvement."
"We are not very pleased with their performance."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"The stability could be better. We find, for example, Cisco, to be more stable."
"Brocade Ethernet Switches need a better interface and centralized management."
"The solution could be more secure."
"These switches are no longer supported."
"It should be simpler. There are still some things that can be simpler in the Brocade switches."
"We are expecting one software that can run across all of Cisco hardware, software, and Cisco Switch router, similar to what Juniper has."
"It would be ideal if, for private users that are not companies, the solution could be made even cheaper."
"Linksys support is subpar."
"The user interface needs a lot of improvement."
"Their performance should be improved."
"We haven't had any issues with the solution."
"Integration with other networks is possible, but you have to configure it."
"Technical documents and other configuration-related information should be more freely available online."
