HPE Ethernet Switches Reviews

Our primary use case is for layer three or four switches.

I have found the most valuable feature is stability.

I would like to see the initial setup become easier.

I have been using HPE Ethernet Switches for the past two or three years.

There is stability.

The management required we switch to HPE Ethernet Switches. There could be a variety of reasons why management makes the switch.

When you do the deployment you simply call and verify the device and serial number. Once this is done you can access the data.

The licensing cost is set up annually or every three years.

I would rate HPE Ethernet Switches an overall eight on a scale of one to ten.

The solution is great in the sense that it has all of the capabilities of all of the other switches and it is very competitive in the market.

The solution is very stable.

The speed is very fast.

It can scale as well as other switches on the market.

The pricing is very good. It's less expensive than, for example, Cisco.

The installation is very easy.

The solution could always improve its stability. It's pretty stable already, however.

The solution is very comparable to Huawei, however, it could be more scalable. Huawei is easier to scale.

I've been using the solution for several years at this point.

The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's very reliable in terms of the performance it offers us.

The solution can scale well. It's comparable to other switches on the market in terms of its scalability potential. If a company needs to expand it, it should be able to do so.

We have 200 users on the solution currently. We do plan to continue to use the product.

I've been in touch with technical support in the past and have found them to be very helpful and responsive. We're satisfied with the level of service we receive when we contact them.

I use a variety of different solutions. I work with Aruba Switches and Ubiquiti Switches as well as Cisco and Huawei Switches.

The process of installing the solution is not overly complex or difficult. It's very easy and extremely straightforward. A company won't struggle with the process at all.

The deployment is very fast. It doesn't take much time. Of course, different requirements mean that users need to take into account different configurations.

One of its greatest selling features is its price. It's very cheap - much cheaper than Cisco. That, coupled with its general comparable capabilities to other items on the market make it a very attractive option.

I'm not sure which version of the solution we are currently using.

When you compare it to other switches, there are no real big differences. It may have a few different specifications here or there, however, largely, it's comparable to everything else that is also on the market.

In general, on a scale from one to ten, I would rate the solution at an eight. I've been largely quite pleased with its overall capabilities so far.

I'd recommend the solution to other companies and users.

These are core switches, so they handle the bulk of our network traffic from servers to the endpoints as well as SAN traffic.

They switch. They are capable of much more sophistication than we are able to support.  The addition of Aruba looks promising.

Simplicity and warranty. We are a small shop, and being simple is best. These are basic managed switches and the lifetime warranty is great.

It would be nice to have a common OS across models so that they could be managed together. But that is more in line with higher production equipment.

We use HPE Ethernet Switches as a small business tool.

The most valuable feature in HPE Ethernet Switches is programmability and analytics.

The solution could improve by having more integration options.

I have been using HPE Ethernet Switches for approximately 10 years

The technical support is good.

I rate HPE Ethernet Switches a ten out of ten.

It's the only connection point we use to connect to our network. We really rely on it for that because we don't use anything else.

We use it to connect to our HP BladeSystem, which enables us to communicate. We're not a very big company, so this is really important to us.

Although it connects to our BladeSystem, we still have problems with the overall integration with the switches, BladeSystem, and 3PAR. So it's important to us that that integration is improved so that our entire infrastructure of HP solutions works together.

We've used it for three-four years now.

We haven't had deployment issues.

We haven't had problems with instability.

We have around 40 VLANs and two sites that are about 10 kilometers apart. That's a lot of volume across a long distance, and the switches have no problem with it.

Even with Level-1 service, they're very helpful.

It was complex, but HP did it for us.

HP did everything for us.

We were looking at not only the network piece, but all parts of our infrastructure, including solutions from Dell, IBM, and EMC.

Make sure you plan everything, deciding you want to manage and how the system should work. You want to be able to do just one config and forget about it.

We use this solution for connecting users and desktop PCs together in our local network.

A lower price would be an improvement because we always want to reduce our costs.

We have had no problems with respect to stability.

It is no problem to scale this solution.

We have approximately one hundred users at our main site and thirty users at the other site.

The technical support for this solution is fine.

The initial setup of this solution is easy.

We called a specialist to assist us with the deployment.

This is not an expensive solution.

We only use the basic features in this solution. It is just a small configuration that we work with.

Perfection does not exist and it's always possible to do more.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
