Users have found HPE Aruba switches to be highly valuable for their office LAN setups, allowing them to connect various devices such as firewalls, desktops, servers, and phones. These switches offer a range of features, including VLAN and trunking capabilities, that provide efficient network segmentation and traffic management. One notable advantage is their support for SSH and SNMP access, enabling remote monitoring of networks. HPE Aruba Ethernet Switches are widely used across organizations' network infrastructures, facilitating connectivity for IP phones, WiFi access points, computers, and IoT devices. Users appreciate the ease of implementation and management, as well as the added value of a lifetime hardware warranty. Upgrading to Aruba Gigabit Switches like the 2930m, 3810, 5412, and 5406 models has proven reliable for interconnecting campuses and establishing connections with end-devices. The CLI's similarity to Cisco switches results in a smooth transition for users familiar with Cisco's interface. Additionally, users find ArubaOS to be an efficient operating system. With support for L3/L2 and routing protocols, these switches offer versatile solutions for different network roles.

We used to have a lot of Cisco switches which are great, but the support contracts and other expenses mount up quickly; one of the main reasons for switching to HP for networking was the cost, but the hardware and software have gotten so much better over the years. I can’t see us changing network hardware unless the price increases dramatically.

The HPE Aruba Switches are definitely easier to setup than Cisco Catalyst Switches. We prefer to have a managed interface, so the HPE Aruba Switches are a better option than most Netgear or D-Link switches. Compared to HPE Networking Switches, the Aruba models typically are cheaper and perform nearly as well.

Cost was a big factor in our organization selecting HPE Aruba Ethernet Switches compared to other options. Also, installation was fairly easy, although there were some challenges with initial learning of the command line.

Cisco Switches are build to last forever however they are more expensive to purchase. HP Switches work well the fans do go out from time to time which will cause the switch to fail. Aruba Switches are priced right and have software and hardware improvements over HP.

HPE switches are much more cost-effective than Cisco and others with a much more gentle learning curve. Aruba switches can be implemented by users with very little networking experience.
