"What I like most about Cisco UCS Manager is the ease of administration. It also allows the central management of maintenance, installation, and configuration activities."
"The solution is highly scalable, mainly because of the templates that make it easy for you to actually edit on the system."
"The reporting functionality will give you any report you want."
"The flexibility and the ease in which the features can be expanded are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"The hardware is very powerful and it is a stable solution."
"The most valuable features are flexibility and management."
"I can deploy something in my 50-odd servers all in one go, in parallel, whereas if I was to do that individually, it could be a nightmare."
"The solution should have automatic baseline detection."
"All the features and functions of the solution can be improved."
"We have three data centers and if we could manage all three data centers using one interface, it would be great."
"I would like to see Cisco UCS optionally work as a hyper-converged system because right now, it only operates as a converged system."
"The solution's pricing is high and could be reduced."
"Upgrading the firmware is a difficult procedure."
"There is room for improvement in the software part of Cisco UCS Manager. It should be more user-friendly, especially when creating policies."
"The integration with other solutions could be better. I think Cisco can only integrate using Intersight. There is a second interface available as a SaaS platform, in the cloud, or on-premise. It's based on the Redfish protocol, which is standard for all the B-series servers in the market. We can integrate other solutions using API."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to their security."
"I want to be able to schedule multiple sequential updates in one go."
