Cons
"There should be more public tools for configuration and comparing products.""The only improvement needed is the significantly better lead time for delivery compared to other American products.

"Stuff that I'd like to be improved is really just training and documentation because I think the feature set is full. Another improvement I'd suggest is that their new, bigger releases should be a bit more stable.""The port isolation and VLAN need to be improved.""Technical support could be better.""The user interface could improve and they should allow a license for IBS.""Improvements are needed with respect to some of the security, especially for VPN links between vendors other than Cisco.""The initial setup is complex.""If MikroTik had a marketing team and support team in India then it would be much easier for us to get the product, as well as support.""The packet filtering, user log data, and user access log could all be improved."
