We performed a comparison between D-Link Ethernet Switches and MikroTik Routers and 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 solution is scalable."
"The initial setup was very easy and user-friendly."
"D-Link has a graphical interface that is easy to use. It is simple enough that our junior technicians can configure the switches."
"D-Link has a good VPN feature and quality of service."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"These switches are simple and easy to configure."
"The main selling point for me was the pricing. Moreover, the performance is good. I haven't had any issues so far."
"These switches are very easy to install because there is no configuration."
"This solution is easy to configure and it's very flexible."
"The cost and versatility are the solution's most valuable features. You can do anything with them if you know how to. The solution has a whole portfolio of routing features available."
"I have found one of the most valuable features to be the hotspot network."
"The deployment process of MikroTik routers and switches is very convenient since it is not command-driven and comes with a graphical user interface, making it much easier to operate."
"We have not had any downtime with it. It has been a solid performer that way."
"I like the routing features."
"The most valuable feature is the price because it's highly cost-effective concerning the functionalities provided within the box. The solution is stable. The solution is scalable. The initial setup is straightforward. I would recommend the solution because it provides value for money."
"It's very user-friendly."
"The technical support needs a lot of improvement."
"They need to enhance stability."
"In a future release, the solution could improve by being more secure and allowing the configuration of each port."
"The solution needs to improve layer 2 switches."
"The D-Link Ethernet Switches have to be replaced because they are difficult to manage and security is poor. They should add centralized manageability to make the solution better, it will allow administrators to better know what is happening on the network."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"Its security features need improvement."
"It should be more stable, and it should have good integration with the cloud. It should support configuration, supervision, and control through the cloud."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"Troubleshooting can be complex."
"Sometimes, when I need to reboot or change software, MikroTik crashes."
"MikroTik Routers and Switches need a firewall policy to secure the network. I also want Mikrotic to add load balancing to the firewall policy, as it's currently hard to do in Mikrotik devices."
"The updates as well as the patches could be improved. I believe it would be beneficial to automate the process of router patching to avoid the need for manual checks. With automated patching, as long as the router is connected to the internet, it can automatically perform necessary updates. Failing to patch the router can leave me vulnerable to potential security threats."
"We'd like for them to improve the UI and improve on speed."
"The initial setup can be a bit difficult. The configuration can take a lot of time."
"I would like to have the option of having multiple logins."
