188 Arista Networks Testimonials

"We are effectively running the Arista switches as the core networking switches and so far we have had no issues around the latency or reliability. The cost per port is around a quarter of what anybody else could match, even with educational discounts, and we are using only 26 of the 48 ports giving us plenty of scope to grow."

"The Arista team is always open to new ideas and exploring new ways of distributing market data and supporting our customers with the latest in financial trading and Ethernet technologies. Working together, we will create a completely new class and category of product for the financial industry."

"Arista’s EOS, coupled with LANZ allow for unprecedented integration with application latency analysis platforms such as our TipOff precision instrumentation suite, providing customers with a holistic and complete view of end to end latency dynamics within their trading applications."

"Working with a multitude of new tapeless digital video formats means moving, copying and processing terra bytes of data on a daily basis. Successfully implementing 10GbE from Arista within the BBC Bristol Production Village provides the necessary foundation to deliver efficiency savings and cutting edge performance enabling BBC Bristol to meet it's broadcasting commitments."

"The Switch SuperNAP is the highest power density data center in the world, we partner with Arista to deliver high density networking solutions with many of our joint customers who are using Arista switching and the Super NAP's power efficiency/density to run some of the largest Hadoop clusters, largest concurrent streaming media delivery, and most cost effective public clouds."

"The Arista 7500 is off the charts on packet processing performance, low power consumption and completeness of vision - this new platform establishes the Arista portfolio as one of the strongest in the data center networking space. This announcement will shock the industry as Arista introduces a massively powerful Ethernet switching platform and moves from a product to a portfolio company. It clearly now has the resources to be a viable challenger to incumbents in the switching space."

“We had already upgraded our old Medialaan studios in Vilvoorde to a hybrid IP and SDI infrastructure to support SMPTE 2110, but the new facility at Mediaplein was effectively a blank slate which allowed us the luxury of being able to specify exactly what we wanted for our IP connectivity from the ground up.”

“We turned to technologies that can be scaled easily and provide high reliability and survival time, taking into account the service scope and requirements. In addition to the needs of existing systems, services and users, we also considered the rapidly increasing data center demand and traffic volumes.”

“We looked at a bunch of solutions. I was blown away by the price point, features and functionality we were going to get with Arista cloud-managed WiFi. Other wireless solutions didn’t have all the functionality; they did a part of what we were going to address with Arista, but at a higher cost.”

"We ran virtualised instances of the switches to speed up the development process. We could also take it on a laptop to show customers – EOS offered a full API which allows us to build a lot of features into our software stack that ultimately reduce the number of people involved and time taken to deliver the service.”

“Each remote camera outputs between 2 to 8 Gbps of data and with 75 cameras active, the underlying IP network was having serious issues that were leading to latency and dropouts, We previously had technical discussions with Arista ahead of this project and it was decided that we would bring them in overnight to replace the switches.”

“We looked at almost every vendor you can think of and tested performance, expandability, features and, of course, looked at the future roadmap. Based on months of testing and evaluation, it was clear to us that Arista offered the best fit for our needs and a path to grow in line with the needs of the university.”

“After a tender, a thorough examination with Arista’s local team and discussions with Arista customers in Israel, we chose Arista solutions as our way of transitioning to modern communication equipment and supporting our bandwidth growth while also integrating up-to-date analytics capabilities, strengthening visibility, and implementing mechanisms of deductive reasoning. We opted for Arista because of its combination of technological capabilities and the quality of its solution.”

“The Arista approach was so flexible, If you consider, we started with just two leafs per datacentre and campus and, two years later, we now have a spine and 6 leafs per datacentre. In effect, we expanded our core by three times the capacity in just two years without any problems. That’s the real benefit, you can adapt quickly, when you need it – and that’s really cool.”

“It is definitely easier to script something now, before we had to consider like three different types of switch operating systems all from the same vendor - but with different command sets and config commands. But now, it’s way simpler to create something and roll it out in the whole environment with just one config that is valid for every device.”
