Review on Extreme Networks by George Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great tool if what you're trying to do

I like how easy it is to use as well as configure. It's very intuitive for those who are not familiar with network security or configuration in general. The only thing i dislike about this product is there isn't really any support from extreme networks when you have issues. They don't seem to care much at all unless its something majorly wrong and then they will just give you some generic response. If your looking for an inexpensive way to secure your network without having to learn too many things, this would be perfect! We needed a simple solution to securing our internal network. This has been great so far and we've had no problems using it yet.

Pros
  • Easy interface
  • Comprehensive set up process that takes less than 5 minutes.
  • Very user friendly system which can teach new administrators quickly if necessary (i was able)
  • Good price point especially compared against similar products such s Juniper/Checkpoint solutions
Cons
  • Not enough preconfigured options; everything seemed pretty customizable
  • No real management web server built into software
