We performed a comparison between Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches and Juniper EX Series 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 pricing of the solution is very good. It works well within our network."
"My work is able to continue because the switches are reliable."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco routers is that they are robust."
"We have found the stability to be excellent."
"The most valuable features are uptime and stability."
"For a home or small business, the solution offers a very good web interface."
"It is easy to use and stable."
"The most valuable feature is performance."
"I like that it's fairly easy to implement these ethernet switches."
"In terms of performance, Juniper switches have a more user-friendly interface and more features than Cisco products."
"It's easy to use."
"This solution is impeccable."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The ease of management through the command line interface is very good."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"I like the simplicity of it."
"Cisco Linksys could be more secure. It could also add a controller to control all the devices, like the access points and so on."
"I would like to see more manageability. That's primarily the reason why Linksys switches don't work in the enterprise space. They don't have the management and capabilities of other switches."
"The problem with installation is not the installation process, but the building. Sometimes our building has a high ceiling, so installation is hard."
"We'd prefer if the product, in general, was easier to use. It can be a bit difficult."
"It would be nice if they can provide support for local authentication protocol, which is a security feature. It is not supported right now. They already support security features, so adding some local authentication features would be very nice. Currently, they only support external databases for the stuff for the authentication feature. If they could improve the existing feature or add a feature to support local databases, local username, password authentication, I think it would be very amazing."
"We are using an old version of this solution and it could be more stable."
"In the future, I would like to see more focus on software-defined networking solutions."
"Scalability is an area that can be improved."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches could improve in the EX 2300 model because it does not support IPsec VPN. Only the models at 3400 or higher support it. Additionally, there is a need for support for Mac which is lacking. Some of their competitors, such as Cisco, support Mac."
"We would like it if there was more security added in future releases."
"Some areas of technical support could be better."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see better integration with software-defined networking."
"Stability could be better, especially during a reboot. We have had some issues recently with the software getting corrupt on reboot, which causes a lot of downtime."
"The stability could be better. We find, for example, Cisco, to be more stable."
"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 technical support from Juniper Ethernet Switches could be better."
