The installation process is easy.

You need to predict your scaling considerations at the outset. 

The product is expensive. 

I've been using the solution for five years. 

The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

The solution is scalable, however, you need to plan for future scaling at the outset, otherwise, you will be limited. 

We are quite satisfied with technical support. They are helpful and responsive. 

The initial setup is very straightforward and simple. It's not overly complex or difficult at all. 

We handled the implementation ourselves in-house.

The initial setup is not too complex. It's pretty straightforward. For setting up the access layer, it takes about half an hour, which isn't that long. However, for the correlator - and that includes designing and drawing the map of the network and tasks such as that, it takes a few days.

We're actually consulting and doing a project for a state company in Tehran, for more than 800 switches. We can assist clients in the implementation process if they would like s to.

The solution is quite expensive. There are less expensive options on the market. The pricing can be a pain point for some companies.

I work often with the 3,000 and 4,000 series versions. It's not necessarily the latest version all the time.

I'd recommend this solution to other organizations.

Overall, we've been quite satisfied with their level of service. I would rate them ten out of ten. They've worked perfectly over the years.

We are using this solution as a switch for networks.

Cisco Catalyst Switches are easy to use, simple to configure, and straightforward to upgrade. Additionally, CDN has been very helpful for separation.

The solution could improve by adding a user-friendly GUI. We use third-party applications for log monitoring that are expensive and if Cisco could provide log monitoring as part of this solution it would be beneficial.

I have been using this solution for approximately six years.

The solution is stable.

We have approximately 200 users using this solution in my organization.

We have not used the technical support from Cisco. However, we have used Cisco Forums where we can write a question and one of the technical engineers will respond.

The installation is not difficult, it comes with good documentation that can be followed.

We did the implementation of the solutions.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches a nine out of ten.

We use this solution as a networking switch for a data center.

Overall top of the line solution.

The solution could be easy to use, you need a certificate to use it.

I have been using this solution for approximately ten years.

The solution is highly stable.

The solution is not able to scale because you would need to purchase more hardware.

Everybody in my organization is using the solution.

We have not needed to contact technical support because we are using managed services which gives us support when needed.

The installation and implementation are not easy.

We are using managed services for the implementation of the solution.

A normal deployment can take from one to two months. However, this depends on the size of the site.

There is a license required for the use of this solution and we pay annually.

I have evaluated Meraki switches which is an easier version of Cisco Catalyst Switches.

This solution is the best in the market but there are some limitations. I am moving to the Meraki solution because it is easier to use.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches an eight out of ten.

My customers are using Cisco Catalyst Switches for communication in different areas in the enterprise. My customers who use this solution are medium sized companies.

I think this solution is very good. I manage other solutions, and compared with those, Cisco Catalyst Switches is very stable, configurable, and durable. It is also easy to manage.

This solution is cheaper than other solutions.

It would be good if Cisco Catalyst Switches could align maintenance with one version.

Also, the protocols for management should be better.

I have about five years of experience with this solution.

It is a stable solution.

Technical support is good.

Compared to the price of other solutions such as Huawei and HP, Cisco Catalyst Switches is a cheaper solution.

My customers have evaluated Huawei and HP.

In an upcoming release, adding SD-WAN capabilities would be a big advantage for our company.

I have been using this solution for approximately 10 years.

We have found the stability very good in this solution.

The scalability is good.

We have licenses to have 24/7 technical support from Cisco directly. We have been satisfied with the support we have been receiving.

The price of this solution is reasonable.

In the future, we are going to implement the 2960-X next-generation version instead of this legacy solution we are using now which will have some added benefits.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches an eight out of ten.

I use this solution for AV, Audio-Video applications, over IP solutions. It's to forward Audio-Video IP packets based on the ITMP protocol. I also needed a POE port to power the transmitters and receivers.

One of the most valuable features is the MatchBox Switch.

I used to use the CLI, the command line, but some users may want to use the Web GUI.

They need to simplify the Cisco 2960 Web GUI control, but not the entire version or the functionality for the Web GUI control.

IT people will most often use the CLI to configure the Cisco Switch.

They need to simplify the Web GUI and make it easier to use, and more intuitive for the users.

I have more than ten years of experience working with Cisco Switches.

It's stable. The Catalyst Switches are reliable.

The scalability is good.

I have not contacted Cisco technical support.

There are several training videos available on YouTube. 

If you Google, you can very easily gather material or training videos on how to configure the Cisco switch. 

The Cisco website itself is too complicated for the user and there are too many things on it. If the users are not familiar with Cisco, it's very difficult to find useful information on the Cisco website. 

In general, I don't use the Cisco website. I just Google the Cisco user manual or training video on YouTube to learn how to configure some features. 

If you are familiar with the Cisco Switch, it is pretty straightforward to configure it using the CLI.

If you are not familiar, in general, you will use the Web GUI.

There are several YouTube videos available to help configure the Cisco switches. It is very easy to configure them.

I would rate Cisco Catalyst Switches and eight out of ten. It's a pretty good switch.

We use Cisco Catalyst Switches for the local area network.

I like everything about Cisco Catalyst Switches. It's both stable and scalable.

We have been using Cisco Catalyst Switches for about ten years.

It's a stable solution.

Cisco Catalyst Switches are scalable. We have about 1,300 users.

Technical support was okay.

The initial setup and installation were straightforward. For configuration, it took around ten minutes. For the maintenance, we have two network administrators—just two personnel.

It's expensive.

I would recommend this solution to new users.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Cisco Catalyst Switches a ten.

I am using this solution as a network switch for my clients.

I have been using the solution for many years.

I have found this solution to be extremely stable.

The solution is scalable and there are approximately 700 people using the solution in one client's organization. I have plans to keep using the solution in some cases.

The technical support of Cisco is very good.

I have previously used HP, Jupiter, and Fortinet solutions.

The installation should be done by someone that knows Cisco solutions very well. I am certified in the solution so it was not difficult for me.

I have done the implementation myself but in some circumstances, I need assistance from Cisco.

The price of this solution could be reduced, it is expensive and I am using an annual license.

I would recommend this solution to others, it is very good.

The product has very good routing capabilities.

The installation process is very straightforward.

We would like the solution to be more stable.

I've been using the solution for about five years or so. It's been a while. 

The solution's stability is questionable. It's something they could work on. It would be ideal if it had better performance and reliability.

I've bever dealt directly with technical support as everything so far has been fine. We haven't had any issues or required any assistance so far.

We previously used Huawei switches, however, we do not use them anymore. We have completely moved away from them.

We have found that the installation process isn't overly complex or difficult. It was pretty straightforward and simple for us. We didn't face any complexity issues. 

For every switch, it took a few hours to be adjusted and managed.

We only needed one technical person for deployment and maintenance.

We had a manager that was able to handle the initial setup. We didn't hire any consultants or integrators.

We found the product to be reasonably priced. It's not too expensive.
