What do you like best about H3C?

Good pricing and easy to configure and good support. Really good cli which allows network admins to configure variety of routing and switching protocols Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H3C?

Gui can definitely improve but I didn't use it much as it has a really good CLI interface. The H3C s5800 switch that we used as core switch had some reliability issues which needed a periodic hard reboot, but we never had issues with the access layer switches. Response from H3C support could definitely improve Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H3C:

If you're looking for alternative switching solutions with reasonable pricing with good support then H3C would be a good option. CLI is really good too and easy to use if you're familiar with Cisco commands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H3C solving and how is that benefiting you?

Good pricing

Good alternative solutions for access layer switches

Support various routing and switching protocols to meet the requirements Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H3C?

H3C has been a big boost to my career. I see every vendor uses same commands but H3C is very different and friendly. I worked for different routers and firewalls. And my experience has been very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H3C?

Nothing really. There has been cases of bugs where support takes little longer to provide the patch Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H3C solving and how is that benefiting you?

I deal with with router, switches and firewalls... there has been all sort of stuff. Stp loops. Routing issue. But all comes to the knowledge of a particular person at the end Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H3C?

Cost-effective and provides many options to pick from the down menus of the commands. The output of the commands is with much greater details compared to other vendors, e.g. Cisco. Especially for sensor stats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H3C?

There are some hidden modes and hidden command consoles which if you ain't aware of, you'll have a tough time.

At the time when the company was still owned by HP. A big part of the documentation was in Chinese. Some of the nitty-gritty commands were hard to find without an extensive Google search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H3C solving and how is that benefiting you?

In general, very lightweight and much more efficient compared to other vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
