“Older Juniper EX Switches Show Reliability, Ease of Configuration, and Attractive Price Point”
We are still running a variety of older Juniper EX switches and they continue to perform well for us. We have a simple network with multiple vLans, but nothing fancy.

“Yes, they are cheaper than Cisco but in some key ways, you get what you pay for..”
Although Juniper in general are cheaper than Cisco, there are unfortunately situations where this can show. Unstable to cold boots (can lose information quite easily), EX2300 model has a power button that if held for too long, will factory reset the config, EX2200 is more stable (from my experience) than 2300 but is soon becoming end of support.
Juniper Support are very responsive, quick to assist and dedicated resolve, which is a nice benefit.

OS Upgrades and Third-Party Compatibility Present Significant Challenges
My experience with the product has been highly satisfactory, mainly because these switches stand out for their reliability and performance at the core level. However, due to their proprietary operating system (Junos), we have occasionally experienced problems updating them, as it is a difficult operating system to manage in case of unforeseen events. - IT Network adminGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source
Durability And Features Stand Out In EX Switches Despite Noise.
