We performed a comparison between Arista Networks Platform and Huawei 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."Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"We find the CloudVision switching feature of this solution really useful."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"It is very stable. It has good hardware and very stable code. It provides good value for its price. They are a very lean type of organization, so they are very responsive, and they're able to focus more on their platform versus having multiple products out there."
"The solution is scalable."
"It provides telemetry and visibility for many metrics that are not supported by most of the other vendors. Out of the box, no third party solutions are needed."
"I like the spine as a leaf model and low latency. The hardware is robust and meets expected latency in all environments, mainly if you belong to the media or trading industry. For multicast-based solutions, Arista is number one."
"The user-friendly policy manager lets us apply different controls for various user groups easily."
"The most valuable aspect of Huawei Ethernet Switches is their excellent scalability."
"Huawei switches come in small, medium, and large capacities and can be used for monitoring and switching."
"Huawei Ethernet Switches are very stable."
"If you're a small one-on-one organization, then cost-effective-wise, I would recommend it."
"It is easy to understand all the features of Huawei Switches."
"We use Huawei Ethernet Switches for business networks and connectivity."
"Huawei Ethernet switches are easy to use and can be managed using either the GUI or via the command-line."
"The most valuable feature is the audit systems. I also like that it can synchronize on the alternate configuration of products together at the same time."
"The solution is a bit pricey."
"The solution needs to improve their product range."
"The solution needs to accommodate new features."
"Something that you will often hear about Arista products is that the price is a bit too high and, like with Cisco, we sometimes have problems with our customers because of its pricing."
"The overall price of the Arista Networks Platform is expensive. It should be reduced."
"The CVP management platform needs to be improved."
"A smoother transition between ISPs during failover would improve the user experience by reducing unnecessary notifications and interruptions."
"My company does face issues in terms of interoperability when it comes to the product, making it an area that needs to be fixed."
"The graphical user interface could be much better."
"The licensing cost attached to the solution is atrocious, so from an improvement perspective, it should be made cheaper."
"The documentation needs to be better."
"In the future, incorporating AI features into Ethernet switches, particularly in the controller base, would be beneficial."
"The only thing that could be better is the security module."
"Dashboard could 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."
"Connectivity is an area that needs improvement in the solution. Interconnectivity with third-party versions or Cisco Meraki should be made available to users in future releases of the solution."
