Chose Juniper EX Series Switches
Juniper is a pretty good competitor compared with these lines. It has the easiest CLI and they are very easy to manage. The most amazing thing about [the] Juniper EX line is [that] they are pretty stable as compared to the other vendors. Also [another] thing is that they have …

Chose Juniper EX Series Switches
In terms of performance and quality, Juniper EX switches are at the top of the line. I've been impressed with their uptime, features and quality. I find their CLI to be more difficult than Cisco or HPE Aruba, however like anything, one picks it up with time. Our network is in …

Chose Juniper EX Series Switches
Juniper EX Series Switches are more cost-effective than the others listed. The command line (JunOS) is easier to use and navigate. We are not on the hook for licensing each switch. We can choose a certain number of switches (models) from our fleet to cover for support and keep …

The rollback, commit and confirm are the biggest players in the game. Juniper is the only one who has those features, so I believe they have a leg up in the game. The CLI is one of the easiest to work with.

Juniper switches are more flexible than Cisco, as I mentioned before. The commit confirmed feature helps a lot. At the time of the purchase, they offered a significantly lower price and more features for the price than Cisco. Avaya/Nortel switches have such terrible interface …

Chose Juniper EX Series Switches
  • Cisco: expensive, cluttered list of models, expensive (and poor) support, OS is different across platforms, difficult to manage, no commit/confirm/rollback
  • Ubiquiti: inexpensive, basically no proper support (community support only)
  • Brocade: OS is Cisco-wannabe (with all of the …

Juniper is much better than Cisco. Especially when it comes to price for performance. I can do the same thing with a Juniper switch and a Cisco switch at the same power-level. It cost much less to run the Juniper switch. I also have the Mist dashboard which provides incredible …

Juniper EX Series Switches are great for all areas of the network. I use it for access layer, core, and top of rack. We are even buying some fanless EX4000s to use in mobile situations. If you have a switching need, an EX switch model has a solution. The only caveat to Juniper switches is, they are loud. If you keep them in a network closet then you'll have no problem. If they are in a cabinet by users, they may complain about the white noise.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • 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.

Has a learning curve for the commands when coming from other products but once you learn the structure it is very easy to use. Easy to see what is going on and run diagnostics on the equipment when needed.

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.

  • Bought EX2200 in 2016 and we dismissed them after 8 years without issue to new models (just replacing switch)
  • They are bigger than other brands like HPe so we replaced some racks
