Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches Reviews

I am impressed with the tool's features like routing, Layer 2 security, and port security. 

We encounter a challenge in automating the product to reduce manual work. 

I have been working with the tool for twenty years. 

Compared to Huawei, Cisco's support is good. 

I would rate the product a nine out of ten. 

We use the solution as a switch. 

Ciscos Switches are one of the best switches in the industry.

Big players are using the product, including banks and companies in the financial sector.

Cisco is ubiquitous. It's used everywhere. 

They have many product lines. They have so many series that can cater to SMBs, banks, or telcos. They have a wide range of options. 

The setup is simple and straightforward. 

Techical support is helpful.

The stability has been good. 

Their price is quite high compared to their competitors. This should be less.

I've been using the solution for more than 15 years, or maybe for as much as 20 years. 

The solution has been quite stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. Both hardware and software wise it's stable. 

The product is scalable. They have a wide range of product lines for small to medium enterprises to banks. They cover every area. For every customer, they have a solution.

We have 70 or more companies using the solution right now. 

We do have plans to increase usage at this point. 

Support is very good. They offer very helpful assistance.

I'm also aware of Juniper Switches and Brocade solutions. People are also beginning to use Huawei products. Huawei is much cheaper in terms of routing and switching.

It's a simple setup. Cisco is simple plug-and-play. Starting is easy. If you don't want any complexity, then you can simply opt for plug and play. 

If you want more complexity or more security, that's still quite simple. They have spent so much time and expertise in education. Cisco education is everywhere. It makes it so that people are aware of Cisco Control and Cisco Command Line. Many users feel comfortable with it. 

The price of Cisco options is quite high.

I'm not sure which version of the solution I'm using. It might be version 10 or 11. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

We deploy our internal applications on our DC setup. 

The reliability is the best feature. 

The price of the solution should be lower and it should have better security and scalability. 

An alternate solution boasting the same scalability and security as Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches, but carrying a lower price tag, would be more attractive. 

We have been using Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for almost six years.

The solution is stable and reliable.

The solution is sufficiently scalable, although this could stand improvement.

For the moment, we have encountered no issues requiring technical support. We did have one issue in the past, but found it to be good at the time. 

We did not use other solutions prior to going with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. 

The installation was easy, although I don't know how long it lasted, as the team handled it. 

We used a consultant for the deployment.

This deployment comprised a technical team of around 20 or 25 people, consisting of engineers, managers and administrators. 

The solution should be better priced. 

It has a yearly licensing subscription. 

Our organization has approximately 10,000 users who are making use of the solution.

I would recommend this solution to others. 

I rate Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches as a nine out of ten.

We use this solution to build networks that interconnect different branches and buildings in different layers. We can also connect to a cloud environment.

The model of switch that is used depends on the application. I prefer to use the 4500 series for the distribution layer, but for the access layer, the 2950 series is better.

The most important feature related to this solution is that most of the time, it covers all of what we need for our projects. It is suitable as a complete solution.

The generalization is useful.

This is a flexible solution that integrates well with other platforms and products.

In the future, I would like to see more focus on software-defined networking solutions.

Usually, this solution is stable. Even when there are bugs or errors, Cisco pays attention to cover them.

This is a scalable solution.

We have about ten users in our current department. They are network engineers.

I am not personally in charge of speaking with technical support, but we are quite satisfied with them.

For a short time, I worked with both Huawei and MikroTik switches, but I was not satisfied with them.

The initial setup of this solution is easy, although it depends on your knowledge and experience. Usually, it is easy. An average deployment might take six hours.

We have our own network team for implementing this solution.

The price of this solution is high, but it depends on the number of units that you want to order. 

Cisco is a market leader in this product.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The tool helps us create VLANs, ensure network security, and manage traffic. 

I use the tool because of its performance, reliability, and security. 

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches should improve its pricing. 

I have been working with the product for 17 years. 

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is stable. 

My company has 50 users for the product. 

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches' tech support is fast, knowledgeable, responsive, and customer-friendly. 

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches' deployment is straightforward because I have been trained to deploy it. 

I did the deployment myself. 

The tool's licensing costs are yearly. You only need to pay standard licensing costs. 

I rate the overall product a nine out of ten.In terms of network security and management features, the tool is top-notch. This justifies its pricing compared to other products. I recommend going for Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches if you can afford it. 

Using the tool provides the company with a stable and reliable network infrastructure. They are easy to troubleshoot and scale, improving performance and enhancing security measures. It is dependable and provides me with what I want. 

We primarily use the solution for the WiFi and the wireless. We use it as a switch. It can help with encryption and networking.

Since I am a certified user, I find the solution to be very smooth. It works very well. The solution offers good training so that users can remain up-to-date with the product.

The product offers a very professional experience. 

It helps us ensure we have wireless access points. 

I'm able to easily manage the solution. I can configure and monitor everything very easily.

It's a well-recognized brand and is widely used.

It is scalable.

Cisco offers very good SLAs.

We've had some issues as we've increased usage. It might be the logic or maybe we just need more hardware. We're working on a fix to the problem.

The pricing is a bit high.

They need to develop better UI. Other products have a nice GUI.

I've used the solution over the last ten years.

This is a stable solution. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. We find the solution is also very secure. 

The solution scales well. It's not a problem if you need to expand. 

We have an SLA with Cisco, and they offer support and maintenance services. If you have a good SLA in place with Cisco, you get the help you need. Having the SLA helps cover the warranty or if something happens like a misconfiguration or a change. Overall, the support is good. 

I'm also familiar with Aruba.

The initial setup is very easy. We just follow the steps and handle the configuration. We also do any troubleshooting if there is any issue.

If the user wants another configuration, you adjust as needed. 

It is not difficult to maintain the product at all. If there are any urgent issues, we're on top of it. We make sure we can fix network issues quickly, should they happen, in order to maintain the business. 

I happen to have good SLAs for other problems and they cover things from the Cisco side.

The solution can be expensive. 

We have plans to upgrade our switches and are moving everything over to Cisco.

We're using the latest version of the product.

I have a deep knowledge of Cisco and have worked with it for a while. It doesn't really give us any issues. It's easy to integrate with devices. Many companies tend to use Cisco.

I'd recommend the solution to others. 

I would rate the solution nine out of ten.

We primarily use it for running our manufacturing operation.

Regarding improving our organization's functioning, the security provided by the solution can be considered an example.

I found the feature of having no downtime to be the most valuable aspect of the tool.

Right now, there aren't any improvements needed in the solution.

Feature-wise, there are no features that I would like to see included in the tool.

I would say it's been more than ten years that I've been dealing with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. It was version 9300, which I was using.

Speaking in terms of how it has improved the way our organization functions, we have experienced improved stability.

I have faced no issues with the stability of the solution.

Scalability-wise, the solution is good. On a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best, I rate the tool's scalability as seven since there are some limitations. Also, around a thousand users use Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches in our organization.

I haven't had any need to escalate any questions to the technical support team recently.

The initial setup of the tool was easy.

On a scale of one to ten, where one is the worst and ten is the easiest, I rate my experience with the initial setup as a nine.

When deploying the switches, the basic steps involved getting the architecture done and then deploying it. It was a lengthy process and took around three to six months.

We did not require a lot of staff members or resources for the deployment process. Also, the tool does not require any specific maintenance.

We have Accenture as our global partner, who handles the deployment process for us. They are the ones who do it for us.

For ROI, we generally recover it in seven years.

I cannot give any advice or recommendation for those who want to start working with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. I also won't be able to recommend it to others. However, while I personally recommend this solution, I cannot publicly recommend it to anyone.
