Chose HP ProCurve Switches (discontinued)
HPE Networking Switches are basically on the same level as the Cisco Catalyst Switches, although I find the HPE Switches to be much easier to setup and configure. Most Netgear and D-Link switches are unmanaged, so those won't work for our organization, plus the HPE Networking …
Chose HP ProCurve Switches (discontinued)
I also use some Cisco and Dell switches, amongst others. I've found them all to be much the same when you get to certain feature sets (and prices), but I do find myself preferring the HPEs overall. They just seem more reasonably priced, easier to setup, and with a bigger choice …
Chose HP ProCurve Switches (discontinued)
We have used some NetVanta switches as rack top switches in our main data center simply for the price point when transitioning to newer technology. Unfortunately they are not quite as reliable as the HPE switches. We have had to replace the NetVanta switches more often though …

HP switches are more affordable than other products and hold up just as well if not better.

HP is a Great balance of everything you need, from cost, quality, and manageability. I have worked with Cisco, Dell, and Ubiquiti, as well as many other brands. Each come with their own Pros and Cons, but are all good products. In the end, I go with HP because the product has …

HPE Networking Switches are great for most any scenario. They are great with low network load and also high network load. They are not exactly the cheapest solution, so they aren't suited for budget conscious users. They are made to work 24/7 with no interruptions, and they have lived up to that promise for us.

Pros
Discontinued Products
  • Well priced. There's something for all budgets.
  • Choice of managed and unmanaged models. Not all of our customers require (or want to pay for) managed switches, but many do.
  • Tons of features on the higher end models.

Cons
Discontinued Products
  • The Enterprise management software always seemed less intuitive than the default software.
  • More of the parts could be supported across a wider variety of models.
  • Add-on modules should be cheaper than buying a new switch with modules already installed. So they could really do to serve their customers better with pricing options.

HP is a Great balance of everything you need, from cost, quality, and manageability. I have worked with Cisco, Dell, and Ubiquiti, as well as many other brands. Each come with their own Pros and Cons, but are all good products. In the end, I go with HP because the product has never done me wrong. Perception is everything. Downtime makes people question the credibility of the IT managing the systems. HP has never put me in a bad spot where the quality of IT is questioned.
