Cisco DNA Center Reviews

Automating customers' campus networks, redesigning their networks and giving much more visibility on traffic flows.

As a company, we significantly reduced operation and maintenance costs for our top customers, and simplified network resources planning.

• Analytics, because it really can improve your network based on what your company really does.
• Security, because with ISE integration you now have really centralized authentication, authorization, and profiling.

Better compatibility with third parties and to other Cisco products because if versions are not perfectly matching requirements, it gives a lot of problems.

We've still not received long-term feedbacks from customers, but for now, I can totally suggest the solution.

It can scale very well from really small to huge and distributed networks.

Nothing to complain about. Instead, they helped us to find alternative solutions and design when something was not still supported by the platform.

We always deployed traditional campus networks because there wasn't a real alternative.

The initial setup is well driven; you can do it wrong only if you try to improvise.

I've been very well supported by the vendor's technical team especially when versions were changing on a monthly basis.

As system integrators, we're now able to use an operations team to follow specific and highly difficult problems and not losing a lot of time in garbage ticket to configure a single port, a single policy, etc.

The price is really high, but it's worth every single dollar you pay. Keep attention on licensing model because you don't really need top licenses on every node and that can help to spare some money.

Yes, we evaluated more traditional equipment like Catalyst 38xx/36xx/68xx and so on.

If you plan to implement, I suggest you follow the guide step by step and do not proceed on your own, else you'll face a lot of problems and you'll need lots of support from Cisco TAC.

We use it for incorporating around four hundred wireless access points into our network infrastructure.

It enables monitoring of various components such as access points, switch cards, and other elements within the company's solutions.

We encountered issues with their response times, which had a big impact on our workflow.

We started using it this year, so for a couple of months now.

Overall, I would rate it seven out of ten.

I am a solution architect. I design solutions using Cisco DNA Center.

We use Cisco DNA Center to provide network management.

It is very versatile in terms of analytics.

It would be helpful if it could be integrated with a variety of solutions, such as Meraki.

Cisco does not support other OEMs for analytics software integration.

Integration with analytic tools and API integrations would be ideal.

I have been working with Cisco DNA Center for more than one year.

Cisco DNA Center is a stable solution.

The solution helps in user microsegmentation. 

I believe the main function of this solution is ideal for businesses aiming to enhance workspace mobility for users, employers, contractors, and partners. It offers comprehensive workspace capabilities while maintaining the complexity and perfection required by various business points and IT system policies.

The tool's IoT integration should be better. 

I have been working with the product for three years. 

I rate Cisco DNA Center a nine out of ten. 

I rate the tool's scalability a nine out of ten.
