We performed a comparison between Cisco Cloud Services Router and Juniper MX Series Routers based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Routers solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"The most valuable feature is the artificial intelligence assessment models."
"It connects all the accounts with the weaknesses, and this is what we were looking for. Also, it connects with the on-premise side."
"The most valuable feature of the Cisco Cloud Services Router is it can make your migrations smooth. For example, if you want to migrate to the cloud, but you don't want to change the IP. You can extend your VLAN from on-premise to the cloud without having to change the IP."
"It integrates well with the other products we're using. We have it with multiple windows like Palo Alto, Arista and it easily integrated with them."
"What's best about Cisco Cloud Services Router is the support. It's excellent, and so far, no significant challenges. Another valuable feature of the product is easy integration with other products."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the SNMP traps that I use to monitor the router and the availability of the network."
"This solution is scalable."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. We never had any issues."
"The performance is good."
"Juniper MX Series Routers are easy to configure and easy to back up."
"The most valuable feature is the capacity of the throughput for the firewall."
"I would say it is very user-friendly."
"In our company, we are integrators who create solutions for our customers. I find Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches to be suitable as it allows for easy configuration and offers features like SNMP. Personally, I find it convenient to switch from Cisco to Juniper EX because of my experience with various vendors like Huawei and Cisco. It's easy for me to read configurations from Cisco and transfer them to Juniper. Mainly, we work with customers who want to change or upgrade their network infrastructure, moving from vendors like Cisco, Aruba, or Huawei to Juniper for modernization. Juniper's features are more advanced, and it helps us meet the diverse needs of our customers. My role involves helping with the deployment and configuration of switching, access points, and Wi-Fi, for building robust and modern networks."
"The stability of Juniper is better than Cisco's."
"The solution is pretty easy to set up after a bit of training."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"There should be a system in place to help existing users make an easier transition to the newer interfaces."
"Technical support could be better. I am missing a single pane of glass, where I can see all the connections, etc."
"It is too complex. It is not easy to set up, even with the documentation that they provided. It is a little confusing."
"Cisco Cloud Services Router could improve the GUI."
"If you lose connectivity to the cloud, it is difficult to establish connectivity between hub and spoke."
"I would like the ability to moderate between devices on-premise to off-premise. This would be a vast improvement."
"I would like some deployment examples and guides specific to AWS VPCs and how to separate your subnets. Then, how they tie-in with the Internet gateway and any NAT services that we are running on our VPC. This would be extremely helpful."
"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 integration could be better."
"The pricing is a bit too high."
"While it is challenging to pinpoint specific areas for enhancement, there is room for better support and updates for Ansible."
"If you are setting up a site-to-site VPN between a Juniper and Cisco device then you may encounter some issues."
"The solution could improve by providing better training to allow more sales of the solution in the market."
"In terms of improvement, I would like for it to effectively protect against the broadcast storms, multicast storms, and DDoS attacks."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. The product could be cheaper for smaller networks."
"The security features could be better."
