Manageable, provides excellent support, and easily integrates with other products
One central area for improvement in Cisco is its product line offering. Cisco has ISE and other products, such as DNS Center and other components. Instead of small to medium-sized customers purchasing devices and maintaining the devices, it would be great if customers could have subscriptions. A CAPEX/OPEX model instead of that Cisco code, where the pricing model is subscription-based, would give much better flexibility for the customers. The pricing and model for Cisco Cloud Services Router and other Cisco products could be improved. One good example of what I want to be added to the Cisco Cloud Services Router in its next version is for it to be more of a plug-and-play product. For example, Juniper has developed QR codes, so if you need to plug in a device, you scan from your phone and connect to the internet. That's it. You can provision the device remotely through the cloud orchestrator, so I want to see a similar function or feature in Cisco Cloud Services Router.

Efficient routing; good pricing
I think their most valuable feature is their FabricOS. With this feature, we have the ability to virtualize the entire network infrastructure across multiple locations and multiple switches. Secondary to that, is their auto detect auto sense capability, which you can actually configure so that you do not have to preconfigure ports. You can simply plug a device in, and if it's based on several parameters and some rule sets, it will decide how to configure that port, what VLANs to connect to it, and where to connect it and where to route it based on what the device is.
