Cisco Catalyst Switches Reviews

We use this solution for our network.

I am a system engineer, and we sell the products to our customers.

I like the flexibility of this product.

There is a complexity with Cisco.

They should have unified software that includes all of the licenses. We should not have to pay for different software on the same platform. Each one has a specific use or a specific feature.

If you need dynamic routing then you have to purchase the software, if you need basic IP routing, you need different software. Why do you need this type of complexity?

They have their own propriety protocols while other competitors go with other standards and are easy. Cisco is a bit complex.

I have been using Cisco Catalyst Switches for 15 years.

We use several different versions, not just one. If they have different software for universal enterprise services, they will have specific features to use for the specific use case.

Cisco Catalyst Switches is a stable product.

The scalability of this solution needs to be improved. It is not very scalable. For example, if you want to enable the features such as VSS, you have to add other modules and hardware.

Other competitors have this feature available from the beginning. 

Technical support is fair.

The initial setup is straightforward. It is easy to install.

I was not involved in the installation but it is approximately five or ten minutes to deploy.

There is no licensing fee. All of the features are available on the switch from day one.

It's not a complicated license; you have to buy a license for different services or features. This is different.

Most of the features are available without additional hardware.

I would recommend Cisco to other users, along with several other products.

I would rate Cisco Catalyst Switches a nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for both corporate and data centers.

The solution is very stable and the performance is good.

It's easy to configure.

We find the product very easy to use.

You need to predict your scaling considerations at the outset. 

The product is expensive. 

I've been using the solution for five years. 

The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

The solution is scalable, however, you need to plan for future scaling at the outset, otherwise, you will be limited. 

We are quite satisfied with technical support. They are helpful and responsive. 

The initial setup is very straightforward and simple. It's not overly complex or difficult at all. 

We handled the implementation ourselves in-house. 

The solution could be cheaper. It's a bit expensive.

There aren't any extra costs for licensing or customization.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We're quite happy with its capabilities. 

I would recommend the solution to other users and companies. 

Our primary use case is for networking, both for the local network and our internet network.

The stability and Cisco's support are the most valuable features. 

The prices are high. It's more expensive than other similar options. 

I would like for them to include more cloud options in the next release and a smaller router.

It's a very stable product. It has become increasingly more stable since we started working with them in 1988. 

Scalability is good. 

We knew we needed to switch solutions because we have a client who told us what they need for their future projects. We strategized and went with this solution. We try to find them the best product. 

The initial setup was straightforward. 

We used a Cisco representative for the initial deployment. We didn't have any problems with them, it was a good experience.  

We also looked at Huawei but we went with Cisco because we're more comfortable with them even though their prices are a little higher. 

I would rate it an eight out of ten. Not a ten because of the prices. 

I would advise someone considering this solution to check out all of your options and go back to Cisco.

The technical support of Cisco is very good.

I have previously used HP, Jupiter, and Fortinet solutions.

The installation should be done by someone that knows Cisco solutions very well. I am certified in the solution so it was not difficult for me.

I have done the implementation myself but in some circumstances, I need assistance from Cisco.

The price of this solution could be reduced, it is expensive and I am using an annual license.

I would recommend this solution to others, it is very good.

I rate Cisco Catalyst Switches a nine out of ten.

We use these switches outdoors.

It's got one feature, and that's handling extreme temperatures. Everything else is alright, and we buy them because they're suitable for extreme temperatures.

They should be cheaper.

I have been using Cisco Catalyst Rugged Series Switches for 15 years.

Technical support is good. 

It's easy to install these switches. It takes about half an hour to implement one switch.

We do it ourselves, and we use consultants and integrators.

It's overpriced and should be cheaper.

I wouldn't recommend this product because it's overpriced. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Cisco Catalyst Switches a four.
