We performed a comparison between Cisco SD-WAN and Cradlepoint NetCloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Solutions solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the most valuable features is that they have multiple SD-WAN options: you have Meraki for simple management solutions, you have Viptela, and you have the option of having any type of WAN interfaces. Presently, you can also have a single combined solution for both WAN as well as for voice, so you can have a voice bundle as well. These are major unique points of this solution."
"Cisco SD-WAN's best features are the development of network links, application control, and bandwidth monitoring."
"This solution comes with comprehensive technical support."
"Initial setup is easy."
"The solution has great scalability."
"The solution is good to use and easy to handle and manage from the centralized location or from the cloud."
"If I have to give a neutral view of all the SD-WAN platforms that I have known so far, Cisco is good in routing."
"Cisco SD-WAN is a stable solution."
"It is easy to set up and requires a single administrator to maintain it."
"Cradlepoint NetCloud is very stable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the automatic failover."
"The process of onboarding the vSmart, vBond, and vManage should be improved to make it easier to manage in general."
"The solution could have a better web interface to simplify changing configurations."
"When it comes to adding more security features, you need to add more RAM."
"The solution is very costly."
"I would like them to add some more SD-WAN ports. We have seen one implementation where there were four ISPs. Currently, we have a maximum of two ports for ISP in this device. Therefore, we cannot connect directly, and we need other switches. There should be some option to have more than two ports for SD-WAN."
"I would like to see revision cycles to be more stable."
"Since most user-data is going through the solution, we are concerned about security, as all the information is in the cloud and not on-premises. The user data authentification should be higher to better prevent malicious attacks."
"The cost is too high for certain countries, for example, those in Africa. The solution needs to be more cost-effective."
"It is missing important settings options."
"In our situation, the initial setup was complex."
"The performance of group-based clouds should be enhanced."
