Huawei Ethernet Switches Reviews

The solution is an IoT router but we primarily use it as the layer for industrial switches for CCTV video transmission.

The solution is very inexpensive. The documentation is very good. 

Technical support is also very good.

They have the ability, since they have a very big R&D team, to create an upgrade for any feature or patch very easily.

Troubleshooting documentation should be improved.

The interoperability of the devices, in general, on the Huawei switches is not good and is known to be not good. Maybe they can improve this a bit.

In terms of being able to patch quickly, if you have both a quality device, a quality switch that has a specific capability, Huawei won't necessarily have the same capability until a patch is created for it. 

I've been using the solution for approximately one year.

I'm satisfied with the stability of their equipment. There are no crashes, unexpected events, outages, or reboots.

We've never tried to scale the solution, so I can't speak to how scalable it is. We do have a client with 1,000-5,000 employees.

We've been satisfied with the level of technical support we've received from the solution. We've used technical support a lot, and it's one of the main advantages of the solution overall.

The initial setup is straightforward. It's very easy. Initially, the implementation took longer than we thought. We set it up over a period of two or three weeks.

We deployed the solution ourselves.

We use the on-premises deployment model.

When compared to Cisco switches, the Huawei switches are a bit lower in quality. They have similar properties that the Cisco switches have. Often Huawei brings in the features to match the competition later, and, in general, the overall quality a bit lower. Sometimes, because of this, you might have some unexpected results. The documentation is generally good, but troubleshooting documents for some unusual bugs or glitches are never created.

I generally recommend Huawei switches because although they are lower quality, they are cheaper than other switches. If you compare the price to quality ratio, it's pretty good, which is why we bought them.

Initially, many users are tempted by the idea of getting something that's that cheap. I recommend users to explore and investigate how they will use the switches and what they will purchase. Huawei is both good and not good. It depends on how you look at. If you really want to go with Huawei, then just be aware that Huawei has interoperability problems with many other vendors. In this case, I'd recommend going with all Huawei products to avoid issues.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

We use the on-premises model for our internet company. We only use it for that situation.

The velocity of the process is the most valuable feature. 

Integration could be improved. The price could also be lower.

The solution is stable.

Huawei Switches are scalable. We have ten people that work on this solution, including engineers and other personnel.

Their technical support is very good, although I haven't been in touch with them directly yet.

The initial setup was straightforward. It took us one month to deploy this ourselves.

We have a one-year license. There are no additional costs besides the licensing fee.

The stability is good. I also find value in the recollecting the materials.

I would rate the switches as eight out of ten. Not a ten mainly because of the price.

We provide Huawei Ethernet Switches as a solution our customers based on their project requirements; we prefer this solution over Aruba due to its affordability. But Huawei Ethernet Switches have almost equivalent features to their Aruba counterparts. Huawei can be considered as a tier-1 switches provider. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches has multiple security features but the campus switches feature is vital. For some projects of our company, Huawei Ethernet Switches are more affordable than Aruba solutions. But for layer 3 or high-level switches, in some cases the Aruba switches are cost-effective, thus the price depends upon the project, configuration and the design. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches also have effective network switching features. 

I have been working with Huawei Ethernet Switches. 

Our company works with Huawei Ethernet Switches, which are mostly for enterprise-level businesses or hospitals, to be specific. The product can be easily scaled by integrating additional hardware or extending the licenses. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches can be easily configured and deployed. The configuration of the solution takes around a few hours but the total deployment may take longer. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches are available at a competitive market price. Competitor solutions from Cisco, Aruba and Juniper almost have a similar price point to Huawei Ethernet Switches. 

Our organization's system integrators analyze the main features of Huawei Ethernet Switches and competitor solutions and implement the ideal one for the client. The vendors also interact with our company's customers to convince them about the product through a pros-and-cons analysis. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches were successful in improving network efficiency for the clients of our organization. The solution matched our clients' requirements across the new sites and projects. 

Presently, the solution doesn't offer any AI integrations with the product hardware. I would recommend Huawei Ethernet Switches to others. I would overall rate the product an eight out of ten. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches are functional. It has a good response to resolve issues. 

I have issues with the support's communication language. The tool's UI can be better. 

I have been working with the solution for more than three years. 

Huawei Ethernet Switches' installation is simple for someone with the required skill and knowledge. The tool will be up and running within an hour. 

I rate the product an eight out of ten.
