Cisco performs well in the network space, especially in areas like switching, DNA Center, and wireless, where it is known for its stability.
Cisco Catalyst Center excels in stability with features like VXLAN and Cisco Express Forwarding, supported by extensive documentation. It is highly recognized as industry-standard, offering availability, easy deployment, and strong support. However, it only manages Cisco devices with a DNA license, like Catalyst 9000, and has complex deployment. Integration is limited due to proprietary protocols, and costs are higher compared to other vendors. Numerous licensing options contrast with competitors providing one license.
