"Ease of management is certainly the most valuable feature in this product."
"The interface is ergonomic and native. We can use UCS Manager to do all the configurations for the servers, including storage, networking, and all the other components we need inside the fabric. It's simple and flexible."
"Cisco UCS Manager is overall a good package because it gives a GUI interface and a CLI."
"It shows us not only when utilization is high, but also when it is low."
"MetricsView allows us to keep an eye on computer memory, internal network availability, processors, etc. Letting us know where our issues are coming from based on those numbers."
"It allows us to easily troubleshoot computer issues instead of calling a tech person or do the troubleshooting ourselves and taking the time to do it."
"There is room for improvement in the software part of Cisco UCS Manager. It should be more user-friendly, especially when creating policies."

"Cisco UCS Manager is not a scalable solution because once you have 160 blades, it cannot be expanded more."

For years I've to log calls with support whenever I've got challenges that I cannot resolve. If I had some training or more manuals, I'd be better able to handle more things on my own."
"Cisco UCS Manager should have a simplified deployment in the sense of not having multiple machines, demilitarized zones, and on-premise options."
"I would like to see Cisco UCS optionally work as a hyper-converged system because right now, it only operates as a converged system."
"Getting a CLI report on routers, switches, or any other CLI configuration device is difficult."
"The installation and upgrade sytems need to be improved."
"An online app or download would be useful for the next release, possibly even a phone app that I could use to view my dashboard when I am stationed remotely."
