We use HPE ProCurve as an access layer device in our office environment. It aggregates end-user connections, making it effective for small to medium-sized setups. For example, in an office with 30 to 40 users needing wired network connections, the ProCurve offers a cost-effective solution that meets basic networking needs without the complexity or cost associated with more advanced devices.
We wanted a faster and more reliable network. While Cisco might have some advantages in complex switch management, HPE, and specifically ProCurve, offered easier configuration, deployment, and overall performance. At the time we switched to ProCurve, segmentation was critical for us. It was easy to configure VLANs for network isolation and was straightforward with ProCurve. It has supported our network expansion.
HPE ProCurve is primarily used for access suites. I have my end devices connected to my access point, including printers and IP phones. It is also used for distribution.
We use the solution for networking access. We need to connect, for example, every user in the building to the network. Generally, the users are not using more cables. They are just using Wi-Fi. We connect the users via Wi-Fi to the network of the company, and we also have this network access control which is one appliance that can verify the current situation of the endpoints. For example, if the device has the correct credentials to access the networking, if the device, for example, has the latest Windows updates, the latest antivirus updates, you can create your own routes to let the device in and access the network, or deny it, or put it in quarantine. You'll be able to access some remediation networks.

The HPE ProCurve, we've used mostly with businesses, either enterprise networks and/or some manufacturing. We've worked and used the solution in a core setup and edge switches.

My customers are using HPE ProCurve for their network layer two and three connectivity. Each of their buildings has approximately 55 switches, including the core switches in operation.
We are a system integrator and we periodically sell web fabric to our customers. This is one of the solutions that we provide. This solution is normally implemented with rack mount servers and other equipment such as HPE StoreOnce.
Normally, I use it for the core environment and the solution switches. I have these two environments, the core, and the switches. Sometimes they have other or alternative environments. It's a solution environment for the back office. That's how I use it.

We primarily use the solution to deliver the network to the users. We typically use the bigger switches. The switches we are using are used to foster the backbone routing and route out the firewall and the servers.

We use HPE ProCurve in our institute for networking.
We primarily use the solution for switching only on the LAN. That's it.
My customers are using HPE ProCurve for their network layer two and three connectivity. Each of their buildings has approximately 55 switches, including the core switches in operation.
The solution is a network switch, this is what it is used for by my customers.
We use this switch as part of our network infrastructure and we also implement it for our clients.
We were in the hospital IT sector.
We are in the healthcare industry. Most of our switches are modular because we need a lot of ports in one location.
The solution is primarily used as more access for users and as more access for layer switches.
The primary use case of this solution is for switching. We also use it for an iSCSI device to support storage and networking.
We are a system integrator and we periodically sell web fabric to our customers. This is one of the solutions that we provide. This solution is normally implemented with rack mount servers and other equipment such as HPE StoreOnce.
The primary use case of this solution is as a switch and we are working on link aggregation switches at the moment.
