D-Link Ethernet Switches Reviews

The solution is user-friendly. 

D-Link Ethernet Switches' switching capacity is low. The solution should improve stability and not support Cisco or Juniper networks. 

I have been using the product for seven years. 

I haven't contacted technical support yet. 

I have used Huawei before D-Link Ethernet Switches.

The tool's deployment is easy and takes five minutes to complete. 

D-Link Ethernet Switches are cheap products for homes and small offices. 

I rate the overall product a six out of ten. 

D-Link Ethernet Switches are used for connecting LAN devices for conductivity. In our organization, we have each LAN having approximately 20 PCs attached.

The D-Link Ethernet Switches have to be replaced because they are difficult to manage and security is poor. They should add centralized manageability to make the solution better, it will allow administrators to better know what is happening on the network.

I have been using D-Link Ethernet Switches for approximately 15 years.

The stability of D-Link Ethernet Switches has decreased over 10 years. There can be some hanging and restarting issues.

D-Link Ethernet Switches are a scalable solution. 

We have approximately 500 to 600 users using the solution. The users are from all engineering departments, including the administration department.

After using D-Link Ethernet Switches for a substantial amount of time we had to replace the power supply unit and if they were not able to be replaced we throw out the unit. However, we did not contact the support.

The initial setup of D-Link Ethernet Switches is very easy.

I rate the setup of D-Link Ethernet Switches a five out of five.

The price of D-Link Ethernet Switches is in the 4,000 to 5,000 rupees or 65 to 100 USD range. The price of the solution is not expensive.

I rate the price of D-Link Ethernet Switches a three out of five.

I am looking for another solution to better protect us against both security and DDoS attacks. Huawei and Cisco devices are better.

I rate D-Link Ethernet Switches a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for the network and ethernet connection.

The solution's web filtering feature could be improved.

We have been using D-Link Ethernet Switches for more than ten years.

Brand new D-Link Ethernet Switches are very stable, but the performance eventually depreciates with time.

I rate D-Link Ethernet Switches a nine out of ten for stability.

D-Link Ethernet Switches is a scalable solution. The solution is deployed in our branch, which has five to eight users.

The solution's initial setup is very easy.

Deploying the solution is just a plug-and-play procedure, and it doesn't take much time. We do on-site installation for the solution. I deployed my technical team to install the solution on the remote site.

The solution's pricing is reasonable. There's no subscription when it comes to switches, so we're not paying for a subscription.

Only one person is needed for the solution's deployment and maintenance.

I would recommend the solution to other users.

Overall, I rate D-Link Ethernet Switches a nine out of ten.

We use the solution to simplify ease of use. It includes both managed and unmanaged switches. It simplifies interface configuration and setup.

I deployed the switches about two years ago for a client to network segmentation, including VLANs and other features. The clients are still using it, but there are complaints about its current features.

D-Link has a good VPN feature and quality of service. It has a great GUI. You can easily see how our network is handling traffic and other metrics. This makes network management much easier.

The solution could be cheaper.

I have been using D-Link Ethernet Switches as an integrator for 17 years. I've used it for various installations.

The product is stable. I've never experienced any freeze.

I rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten.

The solution scales well. My last deployment had 50 users using this solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. It has good documentation that is easy to read and understand. To deploy, we have to configure the solution.

The product is cheaper than Cisco.

I rate the solution’s pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.

I recommend this solution.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for networking purposes.

The solution's most valuable features are routing, VLAN configuration, and affordable pricing.

The solution’s security features need improvement. There should be more parameters for enhanced cybersecurity, including traffic inspection, SSL offloading, etc.

We have been using the solution for two years.

It is a stable solution.

We have deployed the solution for 100 users. It is scalable, and we might consider increasing the usage.

It is a simple solution. Thus, we can address and resolve the technical issues ourselves. For queries, we refer to online support portals, including blogs and websites.

The solution’s initial setup process is straightforward. It has a simpler user interface that makes the process easier. Although, it requires assistance from a professional if you don’t have prior experience working with it. In the case of a proper network design, deployment takes a day. However, it largely depends on network size. It took a week for us to complete it.

We deployed the solution in-house with the help of a network engineer who could execute it fast enough.

The solution's cost is affordable.

The solution is suitable for small and medium enterprises. It is scalable, user-friendly, and has enough functionality and fair pricing. I rate it an eight out of ten.

I'm both using the solution and offing it to clients. We're using it as a hub. We use it in the main office area. 

The solution is industry-standard for the most part. 

Connecting with smart ports is easy. It's plug-and-play. There is no configuration necessary. 

It is stable. 

We can't use it in a manufacturing context as there is no in-built fan that can handle the heat.

They need to make a product that would support the industrial side. We need them to support a minimum of 350 watts. 

We need them to meet our industry standard, which they do not do.

They need to enhance stability. 

I've used the solution for about ten years. 

The solution is mostly stable. I'd rate it six out of ten. It's okay. Everything is available in a smaller size, so you have to prepare the rack size. It would help if they gave us the proper mounting for this particular device. Only one CPU size is available. We need more power supply.

The solution can scale. I would rate its ability to scale seven out of ten.

We have different clients across the globe using the solution. They are enterprise-level companies. 

Technical support is pretty good. They aren't too bad.

The pricing is pretty good. It's not overly expensive. We find it affordable. We pay around $150. That's a one-time payment. There are no other additional costs. 

We are customers and end-users. 

We'd like to have some smart switches and a good management port with a different control panel. 

I'd rate the solution six out of ten. 

These switches are simple and easy to configure.

They could be more stable. They were not as resistant as Cisco. After some time, some of them failed. This could be because we import quite a lot of products from different horizons, so there is no guarantee of quality. In Africa, these products don't always directly come from the manufacturer. We get these products from the Middle East or Asia. Therefore, you cannot be sure that the quality is exactly similar to what you have in Europe or America.

We used these switches for a couple of years. 

We had small switches, and they didn't give us much trouble. After some time, some of them failed, but this could be because we import quite a lot of products from different places, so there is no guarantee of quality.

We had 50 users of this solution.

We don't always have a direct representative of these brands in Africa. We have a few companies that import the equipment and sell them, but we don't have the same kind of technical support that you get in Europe, America, or Asia. We rely more on our own technical staff when there are problems.  When we cannot solve a problem, we have to put them aside and buy new equipment.

We are now using Cisco switches. We used the small models of D-Link Ethernet Switches, but they were replaced with Cisco switches. D-Link Ethernet Switches are not as sophisticated and resistant as Cisco switches.

They are easy to install. It takes less than 20 minutes.

They were cheap. We were not paying for any license.

I would recommend these switches. We choose solutions based on what we have in the market. We don't focus on any specific brand. It depends on factors like the funds available, the trend in the market, and the availability of the product. We don't always have Cisco available in this market, and when that's the case, we may go for some other brand. This is mainly due to the situation of our own computer equipment market. It has been quite some time since I last saw D-Link in the market because we have not been buying switches.

I would rate D-Link Ethernet Switches a seven out of ten.

I am a network administrator and D-Link Ethernet Switches make up part of the network that I manage. These switches connect the workstations to the servers and then through the firewall to the internet.

These switches are very easy to install because there is no configuration. Rather, they are just plug-and-play.

D-Link switches are not as robust as Cisco.

I would like an option to create different networks within the switch.

I have been working with D-Link Ethernet switches since 2014.

We have not had any trouble with stability. We moved offices two years ago and went to bigger cabinets with more switches, and there haven't been any problems.

This solution is pretty flexible. It has room for growth.

I have never had a problem that required calling technical support. I have had some of these same switches for more than five years without trouble. If I did have an issue now then I would just replace them because they are not expensive.

I used to work a lot with Cisco routers and switches but have not used them since 2011. In comparing them, Cisco routers are more expensive but they are also more robust.

Feature-wise, for the same level of switch model, I don't think that there is much of a difference other than Cisco being more expensive.

The initial setup is very easy and I've had no issues with it at all. Once all of the cables were in place and we turned it on, it worked right away. I had one core switch, to which all of the other switches and the firewall were connected.

I did the deployment myself. All of the configurations were done on the firewall side, which is the hardest part. With a small office like we have, it is not complicated.

The D-Link Switches are cheaper than Cisco.

This is a product that I would recommend without any reservation. That said, there are some improvements that can be made.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
