Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch vs Lantronix XPress-Pro SW

Likelihood to Recommend

I like the performance of this platform around the establishment of digital operation space. It has enabled our IT team to build an interactive base that links our marketing team to our potential customers. The cost of creating the networking system is lower as compared to most upcoming platforms. I can totally recommend this product to any business organization for reliable networking systems. It has successfully connected our business to cloud networking services.

Lantronix is very well suited for a lean and mean type of setup where the network devices are monitored, but the location does not have onsite IT support because with the Lantronix the Network Administrator can access the devices without onsite assistance. Lantronix is not necessary for a location with an onsite Network Administrator, but it is nice to be able to console connect without leaving your office.

The only device that is similar to the Lantronix that I have used was a serial console device by WTI. The Lantronix is more intuitive, and as I have stated earlier in this review, has the environmental sensors built in. Other than those two minor details, there is virtually zero difference in the two products.
