Cons

"Huawei Ethernet Switches are scalable but can be improved.""The performance has been slow at times.""I would like to see more training opportunities available.""The GUI could be improved.

If they opened up a bit and shared more information and maybe allowed for YouTube videos about their products and how to work them, it would benefit the users quite a bit."
