My advice to others is this solution is very good to extend your layer to the cloud. There are other solutions on the market from other vendors, such as Microsoft. It is up to the user what solution best fits their needs. When I use the solution I only use the command prompt, other users might use the GUI. When I use other solutions such as Fortigate, Palo Alto, or Juniper, I do not use the GUI either. The languages used in the command lines are very similar from solution to solution. I rate Cisco Cloud Services Router a ten out of ten. The technology that Cisco Cloud Services Router provides is why I rated it very high.

One central area for improvement in Cisco is its product line offering. Cisco has ISE and other products, such as DNS Center and other components. Instead of small to medium-sized customers purchasing devices and maintaining the devices, it would be great if customers could have subscriptions. A CAPEX/OPEX model instead of that Cisco code, where the pricing model is subscription-based, would give much better flexibility for the customers. The pricing and model for Cisco Cloud Services Router and other Cisco products could be improved. One good example of what I want to be added to the Cisco Cloud Services Router in its next version is for it to be more of a plug-and-play product. For example, Juniper has developed QR codes, so if you need to plug in a device, you scan from your phone and connect to the internet. That's it. You can provision the device remotely through the cloud orchestrator, so I want to see a similar function or feature in Cisco Cloud Services Router.

As an end user, I would recommend Cisco because it is stable, has good performance, resiliency, high availability, quick setup, a friendly environment, and friendly interfaces that are easy to deploy and manage. You will not have the hassle of on-premises solutions such as configuration and connectivity. You receive one product and then think of how to deploy it. You should be a highly technical person, but it's easy to use. You don't need to be a CCI to handle setup. It's a very easy deployment that will make your life easy. I rate this solution an eight out of ten.
