"The solution is less expensive than other options.""Remote access to the router is a huge time saver.""The ePoE+ is great."

More Luxul Switches Pros →

Cons
"Their pricing could be a bit cheaper, as Huawei switches offer better pricing.""The interface could be improved.""The solution as a whole has hardware quality issues.""Extreme Networks does not have any entry-level products. This is a problem for them because Aruba has an Instant On series, which is new and cost-effective. Cisco also has the 1000 series, and other brands offer entry-level products.""ExtremeSwitching switches are not prevalent in the industry, so it's harder to go online and research how to deploy their APs or switches. There is a broader user community for Cisco and Juniper because they've been around for a while and everybody has a bit of knowledge they can publish online.""It could be cheaper in general.""Their support could definitely be better.""I believe they should be more aggressive in terms of pricing."

More ExtremeSwitching Cons →

"Documentation and access to it could be greatly improved.""You do need to be an IT person in order to handle the initial setup. An AV person would struggle a bit.""The documentation could be improved; it's quite basic."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "On pricing, ExtremeSwitches are going to beat most of the major competition."

  • "There is a cost for ExtremeSwitching and if you want the support and maintenance, there are additional costs. My clients typically pay for the support and maintenance annually."
