HP ProCurve Switches (discontinued) vs. IBM BNT

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.

• 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.

Incentivized

• 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.

We have not had any issues whatsoever with the overall support for our networks with HPE Networking

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.

• Quick setup process
