Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches Reviews

We use the solution to access insights for network activities.

The solution provides advanced switching features like voice VLAN and QoS. It has flexible functionalities compared to other vendors. Also, it delivers a good performance.

They should provide net features similar to Cisco switches. Also, they should integrate VPN functionality with the solution.

We have been the solution for more than five years.

The solution is relatively stable.

The solution is scalable.

The solution's technical support team is responsive.

The solution's initial setup is straightforward. The deployment process for a new switch includes connecting and configuring it to the management port and other VLANs. Also, it depends on the specific requirements, including integrating VLAN for users, IPs, servers, authentication, etc. When the configuration is simple, it takes 30 minutes to complete. But when it involves configuring advanced features like QoS switches, it consumes more time. Also, the duration depends on the team of executives as well. If they have prior experience working with Juniper, it takes less time.

We don't need to pay for the solution's features. We pay for its support service.

We use Cisco at one of the locations. Juniper is stable comparatively. It has the best hardware built quality.

The solution is easy to use. I recommend it to others and rate it as a nine.

Our office utilizes Juniper EX Series as part of its infrastructure to provide LAN access for connecting various devices such as PCs, servers, workstations, access points, printers, access doors, and wireless access points.

The Juniper EX Series's most valuable feature is its robustness. Additionally, it is easy to use and great GUI.

Juniper EX Series could improve the process and ease of updating the software. It is a difficult process.

I have been using Juniper EX Series for approximately five years.

The solution is highly robust and stable. It has been in operation for years.

We have approximately 500 users using the solution.

Juniper EX Series is scalable.

I have contacted the support from Juniper EX Series once. The response time took longer than I expected. Their public community support is limited, it is not similar to the community support Cisco has.

I rate the support from the Juniper EX Series a seven out of ten.

Neutral

The Juniper EX Series's initial setup is easy and takes a few hours to complete.

The price of the Juniper EX Series is reasonable. Cisco is a lot more expensive.

If you are not implementing ACI or a similarly complex deployment, it may not be necessary to use this solution for LAN access. Similarly, if you require frequent upgrades, it may be more appropriate to consider alternatives such as Juniper solutions

This is an excellent solution to consider due to its stability, scalability, and user-friendly interfaces, with even more features than a Cisco solution. It is highly reliable and does not require significant troubleshooting efforts.

I rate the Juniper EX Series a seven out of ten.

We have large offices in New York, India, and in other countries where these switches have been installed for our access layer and core layer.

We have thousands of users. They all use the switches when connecting to LAN or Wi-Fi.

The feature I like the most is the ability to reword changes before committing to the change. We can always reword changes in 10 minutes if they don't work. 

The solution is very streamlined, and the performance is very good.

Support could be improved.

I have used this solution for about three years. 

The stability and uptime is really good. I have never faced any issues with stability.

The solution is scalable.

I have also worked with Meraki.

Setup isn't very complex. The documentation is really good, so it's easy to configure.

We have three network engineers who maintain the solution.

I would rate this solution as nine out of ten. 

For those who are using and investing too much in Cisco, my advice is that you can use Juniper for half of the cost and almost get the same result.

Juniper Ethernet Switches' best features are the high packer sorting and throughput, good uplink port capacity, and virtual setup.

Juniper Ethernet Switches would be improved by upgrading the uplink port in EX2300 categories service from 10G to 25G.

I've been dealing with Juniper Ethernet Switches for five years.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are very stable.

Juniper Ethernet Switches' architecture is very good for scaling.

Juniper's technical support is excellent.

Positive

Juniper Ethernet Switches are plug-and-play, so no setup is required.

Juniper Ethernet Switches' pricing is high, but that's reflected across the market.

I'd advise anyone implementing Juniper Ethernet Switches to go with Mist cloud so they can manage multiple locations from a single cloud account. I would give Juniper Ethernet Switches a rating of ten out of ten.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are used in data centers, corporate offices, branch offices, factory environments, and business ops part of the factory environments. 

Wherever there are wireless networks we use the Cisco Meraki's and Arubas. Wherever there are firewalls, we use the Check Points, Cisco ASAs, FortiGate, and Juniper.

One of the most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches is they are rugged.

I have been using Juniper Ethernet Switches for approximately 20 years.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are stable.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are scalable.

The technical support from Juniper Ethernet Switches could be better.

The installation of Juniper Ethernet Switches is straightforward because they have been in the industry for a long time. There are enough qualified resources available in order to go ahead and deploy them. Something is complex only when you don't have the skills required in order to execute the job. Otherwise, everything could be complex if you don't know the subject. The fact that it is easy is because there are enough trained resources available in order to execute the installation.

You require the Junos Management Platform in order to manage the switches and you need to purchase the Juniper Ethernet Switches.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Juniper Ethernet Switches a seven out of ten.

Juniper Switches' best feature is its flexibility.

Jupiter Switches' configuration is a little difficult to understand.

I've been using Juniper Switches for a year and a half.

Juniper Switches are stable.

Juniper Switches are scalable.

Juniper's technical support is good.

I would give Juniper Switches a score of eight out of ten.

I'm a network architect and user of this solution.

Provides a high level of network functionality through the front rail which is a great feature; it reduces our need for manpower and reduces the cost of cloud integration with ML2 plugins via SDN. They plan to implement additional cost-effective functionalities. It's an advanced solution. 

The packet channelizing feature is the main function that should be improved. Juniper is currently desegregated. I'd like to see a combined hub-and-spoke kind of functionality where the job is done through the configuration. 

I've been using this solution for two years. 

The stability is good. We're based in India with a population of 1.6 billion. Four or five states carry the workload and account for 20-30 million telco users. 

The solution is very easy to scale, it's a plug-in-place. 

The technical support responds promptly and we found that they put in the effort to resolve our issues.

The initial setup was complex. The deployment was carried out by a telecom provider on their data center, it's a telco cloud. Our support is 24/7 and we require two or three people for upkeep.

I rate this solution eight out of 10.

I am using Juniper Ethernet Switches for connecting all of our nodes. Mostly for edge connections.

The most valuable features of Juniper Ethernet Switches are the simple configuration and ruggedness.

Juniper Ethernet Switches' operating systems get corrupted when the power fails. They have to improve this issue. I may have to use a newer version.

In the next release of Juniper Ethernet Switches, they could provide SD-WAN compatibility.

I have been using Juniper Ethernet Switches for approximately eight years.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are stable.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are at their end of life. The scalability could improve.

We have approximately 36 Juniper Ethernet Switches and the cost of all of the switches was approximately 200 million rupees.
