We performed a comparison between Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches and Meraki MS 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."It is easy to configure, and there are three routing switches."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches are high-end solutions."
"One of the nicest things about Juniper switches is they work well with other vendor products. When you have to go into a situation where other vendor switches are present, you can make it work."
"The most valuable feature is that the CLI is the same on all of the Juniper devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper Ethernet Switches is the public remote configuration option. If you make a mistake in the configuration you can roll it back to the previous configuration automatically after a set time frame increment, such as five or more minutes. In all the other competitors once you press to enter the new configuration is already written in. You cannot roll it back automatically."
"It's easy to use."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The security is good."
"The most valuable features of Meraki MS Switches are the GUI mode which is helpful for access and good dashboards."
"I like that I can patch and manage them remotely from the user portal."
"The most valuable feature is cloud management."
"Support has been very good."
"Easily installable, with good scalability, stability and technical support."
"The most beneficial features of Meraki MS Switches are the visibility and convenience they provide."
"I like the support, and basically, that's why I'm using Meraki by Cisco."
"I found the cloud-managed dashboard most valuable in Meraki MS Switches."
"The solution is a bit costly compared to other products."
"Has a steep learning curve."
"Juniper Ethernet Switches would be improved by upgrading the uplink port in EX2300 categories service from 10G to 25G."
"We are not very pleased with their performance."
"The packet channelizing feature should be improved."
"Its distribution channel and the ease of availability should be improved."
"The protocols can be tunneled, but on a global basis, not on an interface, and this is a feature that should be added."
"It would be nice to have a more available list of modules that you can get for this solution."
"We aren't missing any features."
"Meraki MS switches are great for pretty much all SMB networks and most enterprise networks. However, there are some higher-end functions that larger enterprise networks with full access, distribution, and core switch stack may find limiting."
"The throughputs, especially the throughput path, can be improved on the core switches. I think they should improve the throughput in the core switches to enable higher throughputs."
"The solution does not fit all use cases."
"The pain point for our customers is the pricing and it should be reduced to make it more competitive."
"Doesn't enable a local configuration without internet access."
"In this solution, you are lacking a feature that Cisco Classic has that allows you to save your configuration with a serial cable."
"The pricing can be made cheaper."
