CEO at Tekpulse Ltd | 4.0 | I've used NVIDIA Mellanox in our data center for high-speed automation and integration, but its lack of GUI and steep learning curve pose challenges. Deployment was smooth, and overall, I’d rate it an eight out of ten. |
Managing Partner & Technical Consultant at IT Expert | 4.0 | I primarily use NVIDIA Mellanox for AI data center infrastructure, focusing on networking. The standout feature is its no-drop traffic. While generally stable, some older bugs persist. Support could be improved, but performance and pricing remain competitive. |
