We performed a comparison between Juniper EX Series 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."I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10 for scalability."
"The most valuable feature is that Juniper is multiple kernels, so there's isolation, which means you won't get a process that runs away, creating problems across the whole platform."
"The ease of management through the command line interface is very good."
"One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged."
"It is easy to configure, and there are three routing switches."
"The campus switches and access switches are the most valuable and simple to deploy for Virtual Chassis."
"It is a highly stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten."
"There is no end to the ability to scale Juniper."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"MikroTik Routers and Switches are stable"
"What I like best about MikroTik Routers and Switches is its easy handling. The product also has a significantly good interface."
"I like MikroTik's GUI. It's completely handy and easy to handle because of its GUI. Despite other brands like Cisco urging me to switch, I didn't because they don't have a GUI. This is the most comfortable thing in my project that anyone can use easily. It's effortless to maintain MikroTik routers because both screens make it very easy in GUI mode. You can easily interact with your hardware."
"This equipment is resilient and available at a good price."
"The flexible IP firewall and IP network address translation make it very easy to give access to internal services."
"I think they have very strong routers because they have multiple processors. I like its easy configuration with applications. For example, configuration with Linux, Iptables, and routing protocols."
"They use wireless and wired connections that include all of the features."
"The packet channelizing feature should be improved."
"The Virtual Chassis Fabric is kind of complicated to troubleshoot sometimes. On the MPLS side, they're good — they're fine for the pseudo-wires and stuff—but they need more work on the LAN. It is difficult to troubleshoot their LAN technologies like Virtual Chassis."
"Juniper EX Series could improve the process and ease of updating the software. It is a difficult process."
"It was very difficult to get technical support, here in Egypt. There is no local support available."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches lack to offer the latest management tools."
"The only issue that we have with Juniper Ethernet Switches is the firmware because it is not stable."
"The stability of this solution should be improved."
"I don't like the product's performance."
"The solution needs to offer better documentation."
"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."
"MikroTik does not have a wireless solution. If they created a high-performance wireless solution we would deploy it in our infrastructure."
"I would like to see some content filtering with MikroTik Routers and Switches."
"I would appreciate enhancements to impose more restrictions on VPN connections."
"They need to create a license for IBS. I have a lot of clients that have spam on their networks."
"The CPU load is too high. This causes the Internet to lag."
