Cisco Enterprise Routers Reviews

Cisco Enterprise Routers are the best. I am satisfied with this product.

The commands are easy to understand.

While the commands are easy to understand, and you will find a mixture, if you put a question mark on them then it will create problems.

The improvements will improve our company management and our system compatibility.

I have been working with Cisco Enterprise Routers for two years.

It is stable. We have not had any issues with stability.

It's a scalable product. We have a total of 5,000 employees in our company that we use Cisco Enterprise Routers for.

We are troubleshooting for our clients. Our company is a telecom based company. We provide internet data to all of India.

We have three companies on our site with technical issues that require immediate support.

We have worked with other routers, but Cisco is the best.

Cisco is easy to deploy and easy to set up.

The price is reasonable.

We pay for licensing every year.

I would rate Cisco Enterprise Routers a nine out of ten.

We perform immigration checks in Pakistan. We have around 26 distributed check posts across Pakistan. We need network links to collect the data, implement the stop list, and other immigration-related data.

For immigration, we use an MIS system that helps the immigration personnel. This requires a network infrastructure at its core. We need to ensure the availability of data and to ensure data security.  round 90 to 95 people use it within our organization.

In itself, Cisco is a reliable product and does not require any major changes. We have utilized Cisco for around 15 years, and in that time, there has hardly been any incident to my knowledge that a router suddenly became faulty, or started to malfunction. Cisco is an excellent and very comprehensive product, and we have no issues with that.

It's not really about how Cisco can be improved, but the utilities around it. For example, Fortinet has a good firewall and useful auditing tools with it. It also allows establishing centralize infrastructure, just by installing a Fortinet client software, VPN software, at the client end. However, we know that Cisco is also providing such a product in the name of AnyConnect. It is a concern over the cost aspect because of the budget we have available, Fortinet is much cheaper than the Cisco product, including the functionalities it provides. Cisco routers are an expensive product. Regarding Cisco usage in the future, it depends upon the increase in the immigration checkpoints. If our government decided to open 10 more immigration checkpoints, and other sites related to those, it would require more procuring of hardware, including the number of routers to support this. 

We have been utilizing Cisco routers and switches, since 2004. We are a police organization in Pakistan.

We still use the Cisco router 1721 Modular Access Router, which is now obsolete but still works. It is very stable. We have some very old, like 16, 17 years, old models. We have been using Cisco for around 15, or 16 years. We are satisfied with Cisco. 

It's highly scalable. There should always be provision for scalability, as we procure many routers with modular capability. For example, we know that modular routers are capable of extension via WAN interfaces and other interfaces.

We are very much satisfied with Cisco technical support.

Some companies provide initial licenses very cheaply, as do Cisco, but when you want to renew or expand something, the licensing becomes expensive. 

The network team proposes that we might utilize Fortinet instead of Cisco in the future. There is no problem with Cisco, but this is when we might move towards Fortinet because Fortinet can provide these things that are very much cheaper than Cisco, including additional resources.

I would rate cisco 9 out of 10. Cisco is the network equipment leader. It introduces new features; it's the trend maker. The trade-off is cost. Cisco is highly recommended, subject to the availability of funds. It's all about the resources you have and how much you want to invest. We are the customer. However, we are also studying Fortinet and its comparisons and things like those to finalize the procurement process.

We use the solution for SD-WAN. 

The solution is strong. Cisco's support cannot be compared to any other solution's support. The tool gives you more bandwidth within your network. 

The solution is expensive and difficult to manage. 

I have been working with the product for eight to ten years. 

The product is easy to scale. We have enterprise customers for the product. 

The product's installation is easy if you have Cisco's support contract. The tool's deployment depends on the enterprise's volume and size. You need at least three engineers to handle the tool's deployment. The solution's maintenance is easy. 

There is ROI with the tool's use. 

I would rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten and it is yearly. 

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. The product is not advised for small-scale environments. You need to consider the cost before buying the solution. 

I use the solution as an administrator and have experience with VPNs.

The support is very good.

We have found the technology to be excellent. It provides a lot of services.

The documentation provided by Cisco is very good. If we run into any issues, we know we can get help or figure things out via documentation or support.

It's stable and reliable.

The setup is easy.

The solution can scale. 

When we buy new hardware, since we are in Latin America, we have a very long wait in terms of getting the devices. We might wait six to eight months for delivery once we buy it. 

I've been using the solution for over ten years. 

Cisco is very stable. I'd rate them nine out of ten. They are reliable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

It is scalable. I'd rate the scalability eight out of ten. 

The support is great and they also have very good documentation. If we need help, it's no trouble finding an answer. That said, I have had a few cases that lasted a bit longer than expected. 

Positive

The setup is pretty straightforward. I'd rate it eight out of ten. The process is very simple. 

The pricing is pretty high. I'd rate it six out of ten as it can be very expensive for some appliances compared to the competition.

I only really use Cisco devices. I used a few different options before I used Cisco. 

The setup can be a bit complex. It depends on the implementation. 

The deployment took about one month.

The pricing is too expensive. The company needs to pay for the licensing annually. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users. 

I'd rate the product ten out of ten.

I'm quite happy with the solution overall. 

I use this solution for edge connectivity. It provides connectivity between our offices and the cloud.

The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the devices. Also, from a feature perspective, Cisco Enterprise Routers are complete.

The licensing structure is very convoluted, and the cost of the licenses includes a whole bunch of stuff that you'll never use.

I've been using Cisco Enterprise Routers for 10 years.

Overall, I would rate Cisco Enterprise Routers at nine out of ten.

I use this solution to design and build my network. 

The operating system is good and well-made. We have found it to be solid and consistent. 

The product would be more scalable if it could operate with other brands. 

I have been working with this solution for five years. 

I would rate the stability of this solution as a four out of five. 

I would rate the scalability as a three out of five.

The initial setup was easy because we learned about Cisco routers and switches in school, so we are familiar with them and have certification on the equipment.

The deployment didn't trouble us much. Our in-house IT team of two or three engineers handled it, and it took us about a week. We prepared in advance, and we implemented the configuration once the equipment was acquired. I think it might take two weeks to deploy on a large network.

We pay for our license annually. If it could be cheaper that would be good, but I would rate it as a four out of five for price, with one being very expensive and five being very affordable. 

I would rate this solution as a seven out of ten. I would recommend this product to others. 

We use this solution primarily for branch connectivity for our customers.

It is easy to use and is very solid.

The solution could be priced better because sometimes it is expensive.

We have been using this solution for 18 years and we currently use version 16.6.

The product is very stable.

The product is very scalable.

Our experience with customer service and support has been very good.

The initial setup was straightforward and was completed in one day.

We recommend using smart licensing with this product because of the positive experience we have had with it.

I rate this solution a ten out of ten.
