We performed a comparison between Cisco Linksys 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."The most valuable features are virtualization and micro-segmentation."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is stable."
"This solution is stable it runs without any interruptions."
"The deployment of the solution is quite fast."
"They are good for connecting users. These switches are very stable. We have been using them for three years, and we haven't had any problems."
"I like the firewall. It integrates with AWS. I can use the Cisco product on an AWS server."
"Linksys switches help us manage connected equipment because we can see the historical data on all devices connected to this switch."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. You can typically set them up in about 30 minutes."
"The radius and wireless features are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"It's very user-friendly."
"This solution is easy to configure and it's very flexible."
"The solution offers very good multi-routing."
"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."
"The flexible IP firewall and IP network address translation make it very easy to give access to internal services."
"I have found one of the most valuable features to be the hotspot network."
"Some experts say that the price may be lower or that the ethernet switches are complex to set up and manage, maybe because of limited port density, supports, and quality of service, like capabilities."
"We encounter a challenge in automating the product to reduce manual work."
"We'd prefer if the product, in general, was easier to use. It can be a bit difficult."
"Their performance should be improved."
"The licensing could be simplified."
"It would be ideal if, for private users that are not companies, the solution could be made even cheaper."
"Pricing is an area with a shortcoming since the solution is expensive."
"Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches could improve their price, it is high."
"It is slow, old and unfriendly."
"The interface for management could be improved."
"MikroTik does not have a wireless solution. If they created a high-performance wireless solution we would deploy it in our infrastructure."
"The manageability of the web-based UI needs to be improved."
"Better security is always better. If they can continue to improve in this area, that would be ideal."
"I don't like the product's performance."
"If the client wants bigger capacity, there may be some issues. That is, there may be issues with scalability."
"There is an area of improvement. The firewall features are self-contained, but features like email scanning and voice control should be improved. This is the best routing product."
