It is not possible to compare Cisco UCS Director to other products in the market since it is considered to be a specialized product to support a specified system, meaning Cisco UCS Director can be used only for servers that fall under Cisco UCS. The integration capabilities provided by the product are okay. The product's GUI looks nice since it is not difficult to understand and easy to manage.

The areas where this product can be improved are the integrations and the UI. These features are not as friendly compared to VMware products. This is because the UI has been a bottleneck, especially when working on complex workflows. The Cisco UCS Director does not provide some of the capabilities of the UI that VMware provides. We also found a gap in the version controlling the code that goes into the UCS Director at the time. Version control has been a problem. The one feature I would like to add in the next release is to make it more user-friendly in terms of the UI. Although there's a lot of effort in coding, it could have given a better UI and a better version control system.
