Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's an ideal gateway solution for small and medium businesses, i.e., around 300 devices can be easily handled.""The solution has good performance."

More Netgate TNSR Pros →

"It allowed us to create a more secure VPN than we would have been able to do without it.""The most valuable features of the Cisco Cloud Services Router are the integration with Amazon and Oracle cloud.""It is definitely scalable. It can handle a lot more traffic and group work compared to any other products that I've evaluated. It could easily scale a lot more than what I'm doing right now.""The most valuable feature is the artificial intelligence assessment models.""It handles stress very well. We have not reached a point of needing to worry about its capabilities.""It provides peace of mind because it is a stable product that you aren't going to lose sleep over at night wondering if it will be running or not.""It seems pretty stable. We have never had any issues with it.""The most important feature is that it is designed for mobile vehicle communication in harsh conditions."

Cons
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."

More Netgate TNSR Cons →

"It is too complex. It is not easy to set up, even with the documentation that they provided. It is a little confusing.""Technical support could be better. I am missing a single pane of glass, where I can see all the connections, etc.""A CAPEX/OPEX model, 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.""I would like to see better security, where there are more access controls and data confidentiality.""You can use this router in a scalable solution but it has its limitations.""Cisco Cloud Services Router could improve by having more features. It is lacking features, such as virtualization and containerization. Additionally, there should be increased security and connectivity between routers.""They have an online registration that happens after they pick up block months. If they could decrease to yearly or something, sometimes the device is not cell phone accessible. That becomes an issue or challenge for us. If that can be improved, that would be really great.""The initial setup is easy for one device but is more complex when numerous devices need to be configured."

More Cisco Cloud Services Router Cons →

"They should work on lowering their prices in Brazil to stay competitive with rivals and offer customers more affordable options.""Compatibility with other platforms could be improved.""The solution is expensive.""Technical support could be better.""I'd like to see more security features, like support for different types of encryptions.""Its customer service could be better for older equipment models.""Better management tools are needed."

  • More Netgate TNSR Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Cost is a big factor. We would like to see the price reduced."

  • "The licensing model is good with this appliance: Bring Your Own License (BYOL)."
  • "We never buy the product on the AWS Marketplace. We only download it. We always use BYOL. We never buy the license in the AWS Marketplace, because it's very expensive."
  • "Purchasing through the AWS Marketplace was easy. It was almost a one-click process to purchase CSR."
  • "The product is too expensive on the AWS Marketplace."
  • "The should make the Dynamic Multipoint VPN solution more affordable."
  • "The price is a little high, more than what we wanted to pay. This is one area where we would like to understanding how the price could be brought down a bit more."
