Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The hardware is very powerful and it is a stable solution.""The management is one of the most valuable features of this solution.""We can configure the Cisco UCS Manager, the profiles and interactions with the resource we manage.""The solution is highly scalable, mainly because of the templates that make it easy for you to actually edit on the system.""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.""I can quickly manage the provisioned servers.""From a usability and functionality perspective, Cisco UCS Manager is very good.""Technical support has been good so far. We haven't had any issues with them. We're satisfied with the level of service they provide our company."

Cons
"I found it a bit of a challenge to get training on UCSM. I've been trying to get that for some time now. I feel like I have to figure it out a lot of things myself. 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.""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.""The pricing can be better.""Its user interface can be improved. It can be more user-friendly.""What's lacking in Cisco UCS Manager is the performance dashboard. If a blade has any performance issues, you should be able to create a dashboard on Cisco UCS Manager. Currently, this feature isn't present.""The interface and the way it is constructed is very complex. They should work to simplify it. It's quite difficult for somebody who doesn't know the product very well. Users should be able to get proficient with it faster. There's definitely room for improvement there.""Upgrading the firmware is a difficult procedure.""The automation within the solution needs to be simplified."
