    I’m wondering how many months/years it will take HP to destroy the Juniper brand…

      It’s not like juniper was faultless before this acquisition… but HPE will ruin in as soon as they get an understanding of what they’ve bought and the best way to cut opex costs while adding/increasing revenue in order to kill any good will with customers

        Aruba faired ok, no? as did Nimble. Granted i’ve not had any HPE contact for a few years now.

          We are an HP/E shop.
          Servers are not too outlandish in prices but I can’t compare it to anything outside of HP/E.

          I like that their service is pretty smooth.
          Pretty okayish to get to the firmware stuff for both Aruba and HPE products.

            Are they though? I don’t hear anyone talk about Aruba anymore. I’ve never even heard of Nimble.

          Broadcom is so good at it, they wrecked VMware years before even completing the acquisition.

      I don’t know how Juniper compares to Aruba but it’s been pretty good for me so far.
