We performed a comparison between H3C Ethernet Switches and HPE 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 best feature of H3C Ethernet Switches is their reliability."
"A good high-performance solution."
"To date, it has proven to be highly reliable. We have encountered no issues or challenges with it thus far."
"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."
"H3C Ethernet Switches is a cheap solution."
"We get a lifetime warranty for the solution so whenever the switches get faulty, you can get a replacement."
"The technical support for this solution has improved from what it was."
"We can easily replace components without incurring significant costs in an error or failure."
"The most valuable feature is that they all have PoE. It's one of the most important things that we need in the EdgeSwitch."
"The most valuable feature in HPE Ethernet Switches is programmability and analytics."
"The simplicity of the commands is most valuable. The commands are the same for several devices."
"The most valuable feature is the IRF."
"The solution is highly stable."
"GUI needs to merge with CLI."
"H3C Ethernet Switches could improve by widening their product range."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"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."
"Lacks decent cloud management."
"There should be more public tools for configuration and comparing products."
"I would also like to see a more centralized private management console for the series of devices. Most solutions are adopting centralized cloud-based management, but my client base believes cloud solutions are too insecure. You've got a few dozen switches, so it would be nice to have the ability to manage them on a "single pane of glass.""
"They should release more updates for the solution."
"I would like to see the initial setup become easier."
"VLAN can be improved, but I have to check that with the company expert. I have different switch models, but they don't have all the same interface. I don't know whether lower-level switches don't have the same interface as the better quality ones. I might have two different model types."
"Authentication and other security features are not easily satisfied using the lower-end switches."
"They should continue to work on new features."
"The tool should be more stable."
"The technical support does not match up to the standard of Cisco."
