Cost-effective performance enhanced by security features with easy configurations

Greatly simplifies troubleshooting; remote access to the router is a huge time saver
The solution has a problem with documentation. Luxul doesn't want to give the documentation to any Joe Bloggs, but even as a dealer going to the Luxul portal, there are no documents. I can always call technical support and ask them if I forget something and I'll get the support, but I shouldn't need to do that. Anything can be improved and unfortunately a good switch is not cheap but there's no choice if you need a special router.

"All of my customers, including residential and commercial clients, are extremely happy with these switches."
"The ePoE+ is great."
"Remote access to the router is a huge time saver."
"It's a rock-solid connectivity and a rock-solid Wi-Fi coverage, which is what my customers love."
"The solution is excellent for audio-video and multi-casting."
"The solution is less expensive than other options."
 

Cons

"We would always prefer if the solution were cheaper."
"One of the problems with Huawei is that when you receive a product quote from one of the vendors, you cannot get prices from the other ones because they register your request with Huawei."
"The tech support is not very good. It's a bit hard to get tech support for Huawei products."
"The solution's marketing could be better. It spends money on marketing but doesn't highlight the most important features. Sometimes, it provides too much information, which can confuse customers."
"The solution needs to be more user-friendly."
"I do not recommend this solution on the basis of scalability, monitoring and security."
"Huawei has a lot of issues; it's not in sync properly. For instance, if the ONT is down, there's another problem with another ONT that is not functioning correctly. Even after configuring the siding, I cannot reach some other side, and I don't know why it's happening."
"The tool's support is not good, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The documentation could be improved; it's quite basic."
"You do need to be an IT person in order to handle the initial setup. An AV person would struggle a bit."
"Documentation and access to it could be greatly improved."
"The solution has a problem with documentation. Luxul doesn't want to give the documentation to any Joe Bloggs, but even as a dealer going to the Luxul portal, there are no documents."
"While the solution is good for the light commercial market or for the residential market, it's not ideal for the commercial market, for example, a big enterprise or data center."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The switch came as part of a package bundle that includes internet service."
"Huawei comes with a lot of features out of the box that you have to pay extra for with other products. They do charge extra in the licensing for certain additional features."
"This is an affordable solution."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are very competitively priced, almost 4 out of 10.However, the low price point may sometimes raise concerns about quality for some companies."
"Huawei has the same licensing model as Cisco, so both are working on the subscription model."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are cheaper than other competitors."
"The exact pricing varies based on how many units you purchase."
"The pricing is good. Still, I can choose a cheaper solution that offers a good value."
"The price completely depends on the environment. There are no additional fees."
