Overall Satisfaction with HPE Networking Switches

We have a few HPE Networking Switches deployed across our organization. They are used as the backbone switches in our main network. They are an more of an enterprise level switch for high traffic load, which is the reason we chose to use them at the points with the highest average load.

Pros

  • Easy to configure
  • Easy to manage
  • Fast network switching

Cons

  • Not always fully intuitive
  • SSH support
  • SNMP support
  • VLAN support
  • Quick setup process
  • Not budget friendly
  • Easy to manage
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 Switches are much faster for packet switching.

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.
