Considered Both Products	Juniper EX Series Switches Caleb Whorton Technology Director Chose Juniper EX Series Switches The Juniper EX Series Switches platform is far superior for me personally. The reliability has also been top notch - equal to Cisco in my experience and far superior to any of the other switches I've worked with.

Jonathan Bradshaw Network Engineer Chose Juniper EX Series Switches Similar cloud platform to manage switches and able to update everything there. Going from on-prem config back up to the cloud doesn’t work as well in either place. They want you to manage in the cloud only but no good way to push from on-premises to cloud and update that way.

User Testimonials
	Juniper EX Series Switches
Likelihood to Recommend	They work great as core switches, data center switches, top of rack switches. They can even serve as routers, their routing capability is great, except for where you need lots of routing processing power. I would not use many of them for branch office switches though, due to noise and slowness of bootup Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Configuration is light years beyond everyone else. The structure of the config file and the commit/confirm/rollback features are critical. Juniper Support is excellent and affordable. The variety of models is enough to cater to particular needs, but there is not a dizzying array of options like other vendors. JunOS operating system is the same across all platforms, greatly simplifying administration. Incentivized Randy Carpenter Vice President Read full review
Cons	Virtual chassis new switch has overwritten existing config if not performed in a particular way. Applying a configuration to a range of interfaces could be done in a better way. Applying firewall rules to multiple security zones could be done a little more efficiently. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Easy to use once you create your templates. Stacking is easy by creating a virtual chassis and everything shows up under one pane per switch. Showing LLDP or CDP on each port is really good so you can determine the device. Insights in to connectivity issues could be better and provide more info. Incentivized Jonathan Bradshaw Network Engineer Read full review
Support Rating	Many times when contacting Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches support, it seems that it is easiest for support to recommend a straight replacement (RMA) instead of taking time to walk through a solution on the faulty system. We find we get better help from a third-party consulting firm that has Juniper certified technicians or professionals on staff. They take the time to explain processes and workflow, which Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches support seems to shy away from. Incentivized CB Craig Brady Senior Systems Analyst Read full review
Alternatives Considered	The Juniper EX Series Switches platform is far superior for me personally. The reliability has also been top notch - equal to Cisco in my experience and far superior to any of the other switches I've worked with. I would call them equal to Cisco on reliability but they exceed Cisco in other metrics such as ease of use and design. Caleb Whorton Technology Director Read full review
Return on Investment	Price of Juniper for the performance is much better than the other leading vendor. I have had minimal problems which frees me to focus on other areas. Mist is intuitive and comes with free training. My Junior network admins were able to get up to speed quickly. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
