Cisco Nexus Reviews

Our primary use for the Cisco Nexus is the data center, core routing, switching, etc.

Cisco Nexus has improved the way our organization functions by being able to cut the costs. We were able to collapse the core. 

We use Cisco Nexus use as our core and our distribution switch.

The most valuable feature of Cisco Nexus is modularity. It's like the Swiss Army knife of switches. It makes the switches. It can do everything if you have enough money.

If you pay for all the features, you can do almost anything you want to do with it.

The additional features I would like to see is X-LAN and ACI. More ACI or SDN features.

We haven't had any issues. Cisco Nexus is very stable.

Cisco Nexus is very scalable. If you have money to buy more cards, then you get the added features. As long as you have a lot of money.

The technical support for Cisco Nexus is excellent.

The initial shttps://www.itcentralstation.c... of the Cisco Nexus platform is straightforward. 

If you know what you're doing, there are a lot of examples for configuration. There are a lot of best practices out there.

The reseller was Logicalis and the experience has been great with them.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate this product with a seven. Cisco Nexus needs to add the SDN capability and lower the price.

Go with Cisco because of best practices and all the documentation that's out there.

The product is easy to use. 

There is room for improvement in the pricing. The solution is expensive. Compared to other vendors, it's costly for similar products.

I have been using this solution for five to six years. 

The product is stable. It's a good product. 

We get technical support through a third-party vendor. So, we normally call the vendor, and then we need to escalate the issue.

The initial setup is easy. For the current setup, we're just dealing with updates already.

Overall, we are satisfied with this solution. We don't have any complaints. 

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use the solution in a data center farm.

We have found that logical tenant segregation to be the most useful feature.

The software is not as mature as it could be and needs some integration improvements with other orchestrators.

I have been using the solution for three years.

When it comes to the stability we had some issues with some software features due to a release bug. The hardware itself is pretty stable. 

The solution is scalable.

The initial installation is pretty straightforward, it takes approximately an hour. When you start with the configuration and moving forward from there, which is not only a matter of technical configuration or the key component but the integration into the environment, this can take several hours.

The solution is expensive.

I would advise others before implantation this solution to study. There are some big changes in respect to the previous concept of networking. There is a learning curve that needs to be considered.

I rate Cisco Nexus an eight out of ten.

We use Cisco Nexus primarily to check the health of our links. We use it to make sure if our links are good or not. It really helps with troubleshooting.

Cisco Nexus has improved the way our organization functions through the troubleshooting. We had issues where we've seen our links saturated. We were able to determine what was being processed on the link. 

It has reduced the complexity of our network monitoring because I'm able to drill down quickly and figure out what's going on. 

It has helped us make sure that we have the best uptime that we can have. 

Although it could be better, you can get the granularity depending on the amount of time that you drill into it.

I would like to see more granularity. 

The stability of the solution is very good.

It scales very well.

We did not have a previous solution.

Cisco Nexus is straightforward to set up. We just pointed our logs to it. It's pretty easy. 

We used a consultant. I didn't install it, I don't know exactly how it was done.

We have seen ROI based on the fact that we have more uptime.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate this product a seven because it's helped out a lot in terms of troubleshooting.

Our primary use case of this solution is to provide Nexus 9000 in different models for the user on top of our switches or as core switches. It depends on the design and the customer's needs.

The product has improved the way our organization functions in the way that we have been able to implement this product in many customer's sites and it has been running for one of our main customer's enterprise sine 2014.

The most valuable features are that it is easy to use, provides stability, easy to configure, low latency, and it provides communication to the data center. 

In terms of improvement, the stacking between the two switches in the higher availability model should be similar to Catalyst. It's better to have one interface for configuration.

I hope to see more features for high-availability configuration such as a VSS configuration on the Catalyst series. To have one management console for both chassis. I also hope to see the dependency on the management interface for high-availability lowered.

What needs improvement is the price on the DNA subscription. It's obligatory for all the switches and you should have the option to remove it or keep it as optional. Cisco has the option to remove it now. We have agreed that in the future, they will offer a permanent license for it.

It's stable. 

Nexus has good scalability features. It provides the customer's needs.

The solution's technical support is good. We had to deal with some cases and the response times were very good. It met expectations. Response time was amazing. The customer was satisfied. 

We used to have another solution and used other products. This product provides us with better high-performance support at a good price.

The initial set up was very straightforward. It is easy to follow and we didn't have any obstacles during the implementation.

We used both a reseller and a product consultant.

Cisco Nexus has provided a good initial cost for our customers with minimum renewal fees over the next few years.

Customers do not understand the new licenses or subscription very well. Cisco should work on this. 

The subscription for licensing is expensive while other vendors provide a switch with everything at a lower price.

We previously used Catalyst 6500. 

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate Cisco Nexus a nine because it has helped us a lot with our customers. There's always room for improvement.

I would advise someone considering this solution to go for it. It's a stable product. 

We use this solution in our data centers.

This solution has given us the ability to use Cisco ISE for security.

The most valuable feature is the ability to integrate with other Cisco security products.

This solution costs a lot.

This solution is very stable.

This is a very scalable solution.

I haven't had to use technical support yet.

We had two Cisco switches, but they were very, very old.

Our initial setup was complex because we were installing the other data center equipment at the same time.

We used a consultant for our deployment, and our experience was not great. We have had a lot of problems with our vendors.

We haven't seen ROI yet because we're still in the middle of deploying it.

This is a product that I can recommend that people use.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

With the invention of the Tablet, the world of Desktop and laptops have probably returned to the Stone Age.

With the advent of Nexus 7, Google's new wonder Tablet, Amazon's Kindle Fire has got a tough competitor.

Nexus 7 is not only one of the best among 7-inch Tablets, but it is also threatening to oust 10-inch ones off the market as well.

With a beautifully engineered hardware and Android OS, Nexus 7 is definitely a choice worth making.

The product is a joint venture between Google and Asus. It has a powerful Nvidia Tegra3 1.2 GHz quad core processor that makes it lightning fast.

Its HD graphics can also make other products jealous.

Features like Voice Search and Google Now Cards are interfaced with new cutting-edge Android OS Jelly Bean.

There are absolutely no issues to worry about Nexus 7 if you decide to pick it. Its portrait shaped screen only becomes landscape when you watch movies or operate any other application that requires the landscape screen. In comparison to iPad, Nexus 7 has a fewer number of apps for entertainment. You may feel the absence of a heavyweight, rear camera. Its front camera does all the work as of now.

With an affordable price of $200, Nexus 7 is definitely going to rock the market of Tablets. The device is easy to handle, as it is smaller than other 10-inch Tablets and has a Portrait shape. With a nice finish with its looks, it is lucrative too. Google also offers $25 of credit for each Nexus user. Its battery life is about 7 to 8 hours under normal performance.

We use this solution for many purposes. For example, to automate Nexus switches and to view the modern architecture network, such as SDN.

The most valuable features are the solution is robust, you are able to use it for fabric architecture as well as SPAN on exit with the controller.

Nexus switches should be able to support network function virtualization (NFV).

I have been using the solution for approximately five years.

I have found Cisco Nexus switches highly scalable.

This solution is very scalable because of the architecture. We have approximately 400 users using this solution in my organization.

I am satisfied with the Cisco support, they are very good. 

The installation is very easy and it took me approximately 10 minutes to install.

We did the implementation of the solution ourselves. We have a few administrators that do the implementation and maintenance of the solution. We do not need a really big team because it can be automated, we need them mostly for orchestration.

I rate Cisco Nexus a nine out of ten.
