Cisco Ethernet Switches vs H3C Ethernet Switches vs Huawei Ethernet Switches comparison

"The initial setup was very easy."

"Cisco's support is number one in the world."

"I'm satisfied with Cisco switches. It's stable and beautiful."

"The command-line interface is easy to use."

"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ability to manage the switches and the ability to have a certain level of familiarity with setting up and configuring the switches."

"The tool is stable."

"The features that I have found most valuable with Cisco switches are that once you get your configuration you can rest assured that it will work. The OS is not going to be failing intermittently or anything like that. Once you get your configuration end-goal right, the firmware and the OS are usually very stable enough to work a long time without support. Support is needed once in a while. My experience is that the Cisco switches are usually rocket."

"Its performance and reliability are valuable."

"To date, it has proven to be highly reliable. We have encountered no issues or challenges with it thus far."

"The IMC feature is valuable."

"Network performance is very good, suggesting that stability has not been an issue."

"The best feature of H3C Ethernet Switches is their reliability."

"We can configure the switch stack on the internet. Other vendors do not offer this facility. It is fast and easy to manage."

"H3C Ethernet Switches have a fast delivery time."

"Offering a five-year warranty, compared to competitors' one-year warranties, is a unique advantage of H3C switches."

"H3C Ethernet Switches is a cheap solution."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"The required functionalities align with telecom requirements and have improved from a capacity perspective."

"The most valuable feature is the audit systems. I also like that it can synchronize on the alternate configuration of products together at the same time."

"When you buy a switch from Huawei, the switches come along with a lot of features that you do not need to pay extra money for."

"We have not encountered any issues in the locations where the product has been deployed. I am impressed with its performance and pricing."

"The most valuable features are that it is easy to use, easy to configure, it's priced well, and the operating system is easy to understand."

"The functionality is basically the same as Cisco."

"The HTTP features for security are very good. We use all of the regular features."

"The solution's pricing could be improved."

"The technical support has room for improvement."

"If Cisco Ethernet Switches can work both on-prem and in the cloud, it would be an advantage."

"We've had hardware problems like SSDs, ports, networking, things like that."

"We have experienced some issues with Cisco SG350 switches. We have not been able to use this switch at normal temperatures as it automatically reboots."

"We'd like the pricing to be lowered."

"One thing we did have to work around is, on the broadcast side, we're reliant on the PTP protocol, precision time protocol, and the Cisco switches in general, don't support that."

"Technical support in India needs to be improved."

"There is room for improvement in Wi-Fi solutions, which are not optimized."

"The only improvement needed is the significantly better lead time for delivery compared to other American products. In terms of technology, there isn't much difference, especially since X3 is a subsidiary of XP, and they use the same technology. However, the delivery time is notably better."

"To enhance H3C switches for the next release, improving the user interface is crucial."

"Lacks decent cloud management."

"There is room for improvement in Wi-Fi solutions, which are not optimized."

"H3C Ethernet Switches could improve by widening their product range."

"The solution’s stability could be improved."

"GUI needs to merge with CLI."

"Deploying Huawei Ethernet Switches in an organization offers advantages, especially if the decision is made early in the process and the company opts for a single-vendor approach. This simplifies implementation and customization, often resulting in lower prices and tailored solutions from Huawei. However, excessive customization can lead to support issues and challenges in knowledge transfer during employee turnover."

"We would like to see additional backup solutions, since we have several degrees of backup."

"The company needs to provide more on hand training on the product."

"Certain regulatory issues in a lot of countries cause limitations ."

"Dashboard could be improved."

"I would like the tool to improve its operational efficiency, speed, security features, and functionalities."

"One of the problems with Huawei is that when you receive a product quote from one of the vendors, you cannot get prices from the other ones because they register your request with Huawei."

"There are some support issues."

"Cisco Ethernet Switches are more expensive than Huawei Ethernet Switches."

"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."

"The solution is not too expensive."

"Not inexpensive. Price will vary widely depending on the chosen product and size of the deployment."

"The cost of the solution is by unit."

"It's a little expensive."

"When you compare with other products, they are more or less the same price."

"Its price is a bit higher than other brands. Indian customers are price-conscious. They should improve its price."

"H3C Ethernet Switches are reasonably priced."

"H3C Ethernet Switches is targeted for SMBs because it's cheaper compared to Huawei switches."

"H3C Ethernet Switches are priced at around $500 per unit, which is very cheap and one of the most competitive prices out there."

"The pricing is very affordable, making it a not-so-expensive choice. On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I would rate it a seven."

"The solution's pricing is in the middle, but you will be charged when you upgrade the tenant."

"Huawei provides much better performance for the same price, even when taking into account very aggressive commercial policies."

"The pricing is good. Still, I can choose a cheaper solution that offers a good value."

"The price of Huawei ethernet switches is cheap."

"The solution's price is reasonable compared to other products like Cisco."

"The price is one of the only issues I have regarding this solution."

"Compared to other brands, I think that the price is quite fair."

"I would say that the product is cost-effective."
