Chose HPE Networking Comware / FlexFabric Switches
Aruba line cannot compete with the HPE FlexFabric, we got nowhere close to the performance when using the Aruba and the Aruba had a couple fan failures.

Chose HPE Networking Comware / FlexFabric Switches
Compared to Cisco, HPE was easier to get support contracts and customer service was far more helpful. Aruba is part of HP but the Aruba line cannot stack up to the Flexfabric in a high-performance data center environment.

Compared to the competition, FlexFabric products are easy to describe to the customer and post-sales management is simple.

It is very easy to configure and we never had an issue with the device in the 3 years we had it. I configured it once and just let it do its things. Could not be happier with that.

Return on Investment
  • It's a robust and rugged eco system so ROI is much higher than any other product.
  • To compete the competition, still much more to do.
