"For the Juniper MX Series Routers, it plays a crucial role in our network. They offer numerous features, enabling multiple connections and handling various reports. The routers efficiently manage the number of switched fabric codes and process features based on the specific switch requirements. Previously, I utilized them for processing and addressing customer-side concerns. The routers have excellent documentation, making it easy to resolve any issues that may arise. It's excellent for customization, especially in tailoring the Windows configuration environment. Overall, dealing with this solution has been straightforward and efficient."
"We are able to easily build chassis with Juniper MX Series Routers."
"The stability of Juniper is better than Cisco's."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. We never had any issues."
"The functionality and stability are great."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"Their support has room for improvement. The regional agents are not that great."
"They take too much time to reboot or restart. Whenever we hard reset them, they take time. Cisco should resolve this issue."
"Having a well-designed graphical user interface would make this product easier to use."
"The solution is not easy to manage for people that do not have the experience."
"If Cisco can give you one license and allow you to use all the features, that would be the best thing. We are using it only as a voice gateway, and there are other options available, but we need to procure licenses to use those options. We can use it as a security device, or we can use it for connecting the LAN side, but for that, we need all those licenses. They can provide one license and allow you to use all the features. This is my recommendation for Cisco."
"We would like to see an improvement in the price of this solution. It is currently more expensive than other comparable products on the market."
"The security could improve for Cisco Enterprise Routers. I understand there's a security appliance that is separate, but in terms of the router, there can be improvements made to prevent unwanted users from accessing the router or trying to manipulate the traffic that is passing through it."
"The product's pricing is an area that is too fuzzy to deal with, in my opinion, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Automation can also be improved."
"Juniper must publish more information about Juniper MX Series Routers."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"The documentation needs to be updated to reflect the changes made in the latest update."
"The web interface can be improved."
"Juniper have addressed issues with the MX204, but it still has a limited number of interfaces. Ideally, it should support up to twenty or twenty-four interfaces to better serve smaller service providers. Additionally, the MX304 doesn't support subscriber management, also known as BNG, which I believe should be included."
"The security features could be better."
