See why Cisco users are switching to Juniper Apstra
Juniper Apstra vs. Cisco ACI
Make the complicated simple.
Streamline operations
With ACI, routine tasks take too long and supporting new business requirements is too hard. Juniper Apstra delivers a far simpler operational experience, with intuitive workflows, comprehensive built-in automation, and continuous validation.
Eliminate the fear of upgrading
Cisco ACI’s upgrade process is complex and risky, and some teams who go it alone can end up making errors that result in costly downtime and a lot of backtracking. Juniper Apstra includes pre-validation, one-click rollback, and simplified migration.
See everything, all the time
Juniper Apstra gives you complete end-to-end visibility and real-time network telemetry —even in multivendor networks—without additional licensing. Juniper Apstra Cloud Services gives even deeper insights into traffic patterns and the behavior of applications and services, so you can diagnose problems faster.
Juniper Apstra vs. NX-OS
Think smarter, operate at scale.
Say goodbye to the CLI
Juniper Apstra translates your desired business outcomes into policies that are automatically implemented and enforced. A point-and-click interface minimizes learning curves and reliance on manual processes. No more typos taking down your network. No more relying on the one engineer who knows how everything works. No more “Sorry, we’re not agile enough.”
Get out-of-the-box, flexible automation
DIY network automation is hard to build and maintain. Juniper Apstra reliably and efficiently automates and validates the design, deployment, and operation of data center networks from Day 0 through Day 2+, so you can focus less on homegrown automation hacks and more on delivering proven digital transformation.
See everything, all the time
Juniper Apstra gives you complete end-to-end visibility and real-time network telemetry, along with pre-change analysis and continuous assurance—even in multivendor networks. Juniper Apstra Cloud Services helps you fix problems faster with deeper insights into traffic patterns and application behavior.
Juniper Apstra vs. NDFC
Get maximum control over multivendor fabrics.
Simplify workflows and validate continuously
Automate everyday tasks and push changes—even large-scale reconfigurations—with ease and confidence. Juniper Apstra pre-validates configurations and continuously validates operating state against your intent, identifying configuration drift in real time, and confirming that security policies are enforced as intended.
Understand config changes before you commit
Changes to the network should be safe, repeatable, and done correctly the first time around. Juniper Apstra’s pre-change analysis means you’ll never have to guess how changing a device configuration will affect the network, or whether you’ll be out of compliance.
See everything, all the time
Juniper Apstra’s real-time telemetry elevates your network visibility—even in multivendor environments, and without extra licensing. Juniper Apstra Cloud Services delivers advanced insights into traffic patterns and application behavior, empowering faster problem diagnosis and resolution.
