"The tool is stable."
"The quality, like all Cisco solutions, is very high. The fact that it's Cisco is one of the reasons we chose to use it."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"What we love about the Cisco switches is that they are very reliable. You can deploy them and go to sleep, and you can be sure that nothing is going to go wrong. Our initial equipment was installed by a Chinese manufacturer named Fiberhome a couple of years ago. Their switches were called S engines. They worked, but some days, you just wake up, and the switch has popped up. It was a lot of crisis. Therefore, we are in the process of trying to take out all their switches and replace them with Cisco switches. We are getting good results in terms of reliability and even technical support."
"Cisco Ethernet Switches have a lot of valuable features. One that stands out to me is its ease of implementation."
"Broadcom's biggest issue is that they don't like to share information."
"The technical support should be improved."
"Cisco needs to include new features to attract new customers."
"The price of the solution has room for improvement."
"The solution needs to work on lowering the amount of bugs. We find them quite regularly."
"An improvement would be to change their market intention. Almost all the Cisco switches are now coming with a license called DNA. D for Delta, N for number and A for apple. That feature is required, he must purchase it and it is a mandatory thing that has been introduced. This is not matching with the Asian market."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"Pricing could be lower."
"Cisco's equipment is expensive, especially since it introduced the obligatory purchase of Cisco DNA."
