Cisco Catalyst Switches Reviews

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.

I recommend Cisco Catalyst Switches and rate it at nine on a scale from one to 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.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches a nine out of ten.

We have clients that have application servers and we offer our services to them. The switches are provided alongside Cisco Firewall and they also integrate into Cisco storage.

The product is easy to use. It's very user friendly and simple to navigate.

The solution offers very good stability.

We've found the product to be quite flexible.

It integrates well with other solutions, including other Cisco solutions especially.

We've found the technical support to be quite helpful.

The scalability is excellent.

The implementation of the solution is a little bit difficult. It would be nicer if the process was a bit easier.

The configuration process is hard.

The pricing of the solution is quite high.

I started working with the solution a few months ago. It hasn't been too long just yet. I'm still relatively new to the product. I'd say that it has been almost six months or so.

The product offers very good stability. It's reliable. We haven't had issues with bugs. It's not glitchy. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's been very good overall.

The solution is quite scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so. It's not a problem at all.

Technical support is excellent. It's much better than other solutions. They're very helpful and responsive. They're very good at helping if we run into issues with implementations. We've more than satisfied with the level of support we receive from them.

That said, I have had a bad experience once or twice where we had an issue with an appliance and some licensing. It took Cisco a month to get the license figured out successfully. The issue was that there wasn't enough knowledge about the product and it affected the support.

However, one of the last issues we had, we were assigned a senior level person and she was very good. She sorted everything out and got it deployed in one or two hours.

Therefore, as long as you get a knowledgeable person, you're going to have a very good experience.

While I am aware of our company using different switches in the past, I was not a part of the project. I'm not sure what product they were using.

The Cisco implementation is tough. It's not straightforward per se. However, it's very important for the network level solutions. It's more difficult than Fortinet or other vendors. At the same time, their support for their solution is very effective and in that sense, they are actually much better than other vendors. That's why everyone prefers Cisco. They offer good help if you run into trouble.

In terms of deployment, the product takes about two or three weeks to deploy. If you are adding Fortinet or other solutions, you're looking at a month and a half for a full deployment.

The pricing for Cisco is expensive. However, they offer very good support services. 

I'm not sure of the switch model. I work remotely. It would be hard for me to check.

We're a vendor company. We're Cisco partners. We have almost 10 engineers and about two or three people are dedicated to Cisco.

I'd recommend this solution to other users. I would warn companies, however, that the implementation process is tough. It's good to have some sort of support in order to deploy the solution effectively and correctly. Without help, if you don't know what you are doing, you may run into issues.

In general, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

I am a CMP and know the Cisco Catalyst Switches very well. We use them for connectivity.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches a ten out of ten.

Our primary use is LAN and WAN links for our enterprise network. 

Cisco Catalyst is used to connect all our WAN links to a central data center. 

• Low maintenance and very stable; not much of a problem. 
• It helps keep our network connections in a healthy state. 

• VLAN
• Routing capabilities and security features 
• It can easily be enabled and used as need dictates. 

It has a very high cost, but understandably, due to its very good quality. This is the reason why some customers opt to buy cheaper brands with same/similar features.

I do not recall which version we are using. 

We use the solution with our networks. 

The general price of the solution could be cheaper. 

We have been using Cisco Catalyst Switches for around five years. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

I have not had contact with technical support. 

We did not use other solutions prior to the one we are using at present.

This took around half a day. 

Installation can be done on one's own. 

We have two people responsible for the deployment and maintenance. 

The general price of the solution could be cheaper.

I would recommend this solution to others. 

There are, perhaps, five users making use of the solution. 

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches as an eight out of ten. 

I find their system throughput and Cisco support very useful.

The price can definitely be lower. I also think that a Combi Port should be added to the next release.

I have been using Cisco Catalyst Switches for about two years. 

They're quite stable. Our Cisco Catalyst Switches have been working for many years. 

Cisco Catalyst Switches are very scalable.

Technical support is great. 

The initial setup is easy.

The price can definitely be lower. I think the quality is much higher than the other LANs, but the price must be lower on this.

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