Arista EOS Reviews & Product Details

What I really like about Arista EOS is how easy it is to use. The commands are simple and familiar, and it’s very efficient for managing network configurations. It’s also highly reliable and fast, with great support for automation, which helps reduce manual work. Plus, its flexibility to integrate with different tools and environments is a big advantage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I find challenging about Arista EOS is that it can have a bit of a learning curve for those who are new to it, especially if they’re coming from a different platform. Additionally, some advanced features may require more detailed documentation or support to fully understand how to implement them effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have to say that Arista EOS is extremely scalable. EOS help to provision and manage a large data center network with hundreds of thousands of nodes, making the task much easier. It freed our team from the countless hours on the mundane switch configurations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not good at the simple automation of network tasks, the scripting capabilities seemed somewhat restricted for large configuration updates. In more complex work scenarios or special topologies, I had to configure the switches manually with the help of the CLI, which potentially lead to mistakes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found it effective in automating some process and in integration with the other tools I am using. The strong suit of Arista EOS is definitely its programmability. This has helped in minimizing the manual effort in handling the network and in addition managing the network efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have faced diffiulty when organizing a growing network. As we’ve extended google with compute and storage nodes, runtime provisioning and configuration have become contradictory. I don’t get the impression that large scale deployments are dealt with in the way that the algorithm suggests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The switch has made it easier in the configuration and monitoring especially for large networks with different hardware. It is also worthy to note that the programmability of EOS enables me to automate some operation on the network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In cases of extended network issues or detailed performance analysis, I might have to resort to using third-party applications. Missed snapshots within EOS reduce the possibility of quickly and easily understanding the health of the network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is clean and simple to use, there is not a lot of fluff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Commands are still available even if they will not function. I found out the hard way that even though I put nat rules on a port and it accepted the command it didn't actually work when utilized. The hardware didn't support it and at no point was I warned it wouldn't work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
