"The initial setup was trivially simple and easy. It builds itself because it is automation. You don't have to do too much."
"Automation is its most valuable feature."
"Because we can use automation processes with this platform, we have been able to free up our IT department's time."
"Cisco ACI is scalable and easy to expand."
"The operation and maintenance costs have been reduced. It is also simple to deploy any deployment. Any configuration can be easily done."

"Biannually, there is a new design delivered by Cisco. Thus, you are always running behind the new design, and it never stops. With Cisco ACI, this has been a nightmare."
"Cisco SDN will only work with its own devices, so that's a downside."
"It needs to be able to function on the cloud."
"So far we've had very few issues, a couple of routing things that were glitches within ACI."
"Cisco should provide more examples of code in their website. Something that other people can use. There is a great place in the development area."
"Security is an area that could use some work."
