Subject: Cisco vs. HP Switches
We are looking at four new 24 port switches for our network. We have Cisco
and HP as our final contenders. Both the HP Procurve and the Cisco
Catalyst carry similar specs, but the HP is about 20% of the cost of the
Cisco. Can someone give me a REAL reason why the Cisco Catalyst would be a
better choice. Our network is all 10/100 for now and we won't need Gigabit
for at least a couple of years. We need these switches to be in 24 port
configurations as the company is going to split in two in a couple of months
and move half of the operations to another building, so we need to be able
to split the network as needed. I know this is a Cisco group, which is why
I am asking it here, because I want a BIASED opinion of why Cisco would be
better in this situation. Thank you all for your suggestions.
