Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches Reviews

We are using Cisco switches for the moment, two backbone switches, and we also have firewalls from Cisco.

We use the solution for networking. We are a graphical company making many designs for Corrugated and Offset and so on, and use the solution for communications.

They are very reliable. They don't break. We have some old switches and they're still working. 

That's one of the things about Cisco - if you buy Cisco you have a good suite.

It's scalable.

The solution is stable. 

The solution is costly.

The interface is a bit difficult, and you need to have someone that is trained in Cisco on your team in order to take advantage of it properly.

The solution requires a lot of knowledge and training. 

It's hard to configure. You need to understand Command-Line.

The solution is stable.

It scales well. 

We've used the solution for more than ten years. 

It is a stable, reliable solution. There are no bugs or glitches. the switches are very robust and last a long time. They do not break easily.

I'd rate the solution four out of five in terms of its stability.

The solution scales well. It's not a problem.

I'd rate the scalability four out of five in terms of how well it expands. 

There are about 80 people using the solution in Belgium and 20 in Holland.

We do not use technical support. We have our own person we go to that can help us troubleshoot.

We are currently looking into Fortigate. We are investigating which would be a better switch for us. Cisco is becoming too expensive, and Fortigate is easier to configure. We may also move to Barracuda, which is also simpler.

It was complex to set up. We also have some sites in Holland that we needed as well and then we had to make the VM, and so on. 

There was one person, knowledgeable in Cisco, that handled the deployment. He deployed the solution in about two days. He also maintains the product.

We have an internal employee that knows a lot about Cisco and was able to help us with the setup and configuration.

We have not calculated an ROI.

It's an expensive product. Fortinet, for example, is a bit less. That's true for Barracuda as well.

You don't need to buy a license. If you buy a switch, it's your switch. However, the price to purchase just keeps going up and up.

We're customers and end-users. 

We are not on the latest version of the solution. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. They are good, yet they are also expensive and difficult to configure.

We use Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches as our WiFi access point.

Overall, they have a good quality product.

When we first installed it, it was very stable, and everything worked fine. After a few years, it begins to become unstable.

We started having problems with the access points after about five or six years.

Users are unable to connect to Wi-Fi and it must be restarted on a regular basis. Because the Wi-Fi occasionally goes out and then comes back on. There are several issues like this. It's no longer stable, the Wi-Fi on this device is no longer stable.

The technical support could be improved. They are not very responsive.

I have been working with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for four or five years.

After a few years, it is no longer stable.

We have 10 to 15 users in our company.

I contacted technical support, but they were unable to assist me.

I was talking to someone when help was suddenly disconnected. I attempted to connect again without any assistance.

The initial setup is straightforward. There are a few settings inside.

You don't require a technical team, you have to understand the basics, and the abbreviations to deal with it.

You can do the installation yourself.

There is no license required.

With what I have experienced in the last two months, I would not recommend using this solution.

It should be working, as a trend name that is well-known, it should be better. I would Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches a four out of ten.

We are using Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for the network in our stores. We don't need some specific management or monitoring. Only internet connections.

I have been using Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for approximately 10 years.

This is a stable solution.

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches is scalable.

We have approximately 1,000 users using this solution.

We have not used technical support.

The installation is straightforward. We did not face any problems.

We did the implementation of the solution.

We have approximately two engineers that do the maintenance of the solution.

Cisco Linksys Ethernet SwitchesRev Services should be less expensive.

We need more network solutions, and we have compared Cisco with other products.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for switches.

Linksys is stable. 

In SMB customers the price is good.

With Cisco, clients have a lifetime warranty.

The features have been done very well.

There isn't any further development required at this time. It's a good solution and it's doing very well.

The installation process is straightforward. 

The only thing is that the sizing is important in Linksys. If the sizing is wrong, you can run into issues.

The licensing could be simplified.

We've been using the solution for five years. 

With the solution, it's all about the sizing. the sizing for the client needs to be right.

We have 15 to 20 customers on this solution currently.

We've dealt with technical support in the past. Normally, if the access switch has some issues, we have to contact support. They give good support. We are quite satisfied with them.

Even their hardware replacement is also good.

Even in RMA, they can give you delivery within two or three days, and sometimes on the same day.

They are very fast and quite knowledgeable.

All of our SMB customers are using only SG switches, such as Cisco SG switches or Linksys switches. Those switches are running products in the market. It is a stock-and-sell solution. In the last five or six years, we have started a networking business, and from that day we have been working with SG. We've been working with Catalyst and Cisco Nexus for three years and Huawei and other Enterprise solutions, five or six years.

We find the implementation to be very straightforward and simple. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

Clients are using it as an access switch and it doesn't take much time. You need to just connect to the network and put in a few commands to VLAN or use VLAN tagging. One day is more than enough for implementation. It's very fast.

One engineer is enough for deployment and maintenance.

As integrators, we can handle the implementation process for clients. 

The pricing is very reasonable. We have no complaints. 

The licensing is subscription-based. The renewal can be a little bit tricky. That said, it is industry standard practice.

We're an integrator of Linksys.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

I would definitely recommend this product to other companies or end-users. 

Linksys Switches are network devices.

I've been working with Linksys Ethernet Switches for about a year.

Linksys Switches are stable. 

Linksys switches are scalable too. We have more than 1,000 users.

Linksys support is subpar. 

Deploying Linksys Switches is not a concern. Configuration is easy.

We have a monthly subscription.

I rate Linksys Ethernet Switches eight out of 10. We use only Cisco Catalyst Switches and also Linksys Switches, which are the best kind.

I use Cisco Linksys to deploy wireless networking. It can act as a router and an access point depending on your configuration. We use it in three locations, serving up to 60 people.

Cisco Linksys could be more secure. It could also add a controller to control all the devices, like the access points and so on.

I've been using Cisco Linksys Switches for four years, actively.

 Cisco Linksys is quite stable and robust.

Cisco Linksys is scalable. You can use it as an extender, too.

I've not had any issues that required me to contact technical support.

I would rate it nine out 10.

We are using Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for other devices to connect to our network.

I have been using Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for approximately six years.

We are using an old version of this solution and it could be more stable.

We only have a few people using this solution.

The technical support has been good, we have a dedicated team.

The installation is easy.

There is not a license to use the solution but we have a license for support.

I would not recommend this solution to others.

I rate Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches an 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.

I primarily use the solution for my personal equipment.

Linksys is quite cheap for private use. Usually people use it in homes or other, for example, in-home setups.

The stability is very good. I like the excellent performance. 

The solution is easy to use. 

The scalability is great.

It would be ideal if, for private users that are not companies, the solution could be made even cheaper.

I've used the solution for a few years now. I tend to use solutions until they reach end-of-life.

The stability is quite good. That said, a few times, if my computer has some problems with internet connection, I'll restart the modem and restart the router and everything will be up. It's quite good in terms of performance.

The solution can scale well. For me, it works well and I have no complaints.

I haven't had any issues with the solution and therefore have never had the need to reach out to technical support. I cannot speak to thier level of helpfulness or responsiveness.

My Lynksys router is pretty old. I can't recall what I had before, however, if I do need to replace it, I may look to see what else is on the market.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. i'm a network engineer, and therefore, I don't face any issues. It's not complex at all.

I'm able to set up the solution on my own. I don't need any integrators or consultants to help me.

The solution is extremely inexpensive. It's great for small setups as it doesn't cost too much.

As I just use it for personal use, I do not pay for a commercial license. 

Typically, when I need to replace my equipment, I will do some research to find the best technology and rates. My router is now pretty old and I will be looking to evaluate new solutions in the near future.

I'm a customer and an end-user. I don't have a business relationship with the company.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. I've been quite happy with its capabilities.

I'd recommend the solution to other users.

We use this solution to link our three locals that are in different places. They connect to similar networks. It works with data and voice as well. I'm not exactly sure of the details there as that service is supplied by our operator.

The solution offers good upgrades. In the past, we had issues with voice communications, and they did some updates that removed the problem. Now, it's much better.

The product is quite stable and reliable.

Technical support is very helpful and responsive.

We would like Cisco to make it easier to work with them. We'd prefer if the product, in general, was easier to use. It can be a bit difficult.

Although I didn't directly handle the implementation, the process does not look easy.

The product is a holdout from our old communications operator. The operator has worked with us since 1990.

We have found the stability to be excellent. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's been great.

The solution might be salable. I'm not sure due to the fact that it's not our responsibility. It's the responsibility of our operator, and therefore we don't have all details. We only want everything to work. We don't necessarily care about the details per se. They take on most of the responsibilities in that sense.  

We have about 60 users on the solution at this time.

We do not have plans to increase usage right now.

I've had good experiences with technical support. they respond in a timely manner and are very helpful. We're satisfied with the level of attention we get when we need help.

I did not directly handle the initial setup. However, from the outside, it did look like it was rather complex and difficult. It didn't strike me as being straightforward or simple. 

I'm not sure how long the deployment actually took.

We don't really have anyone on our team that directly handles maintenance.

I cannot directly speak to the costs or the licensing agreements that are in place. That's something our supplier deals with. I don't have a real sense of how it works. It's not part of my responsibility.

I'm not 100% certain that we are using the latest version of the solution. It might be an older one.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've largely been quite happy with its capabilities so far.

I'd recommend it to other users and organizations.
