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.

Easy to configure and troubleshoot, but they need more visibility in the licensing model
Huawei needs to be a bit more open with their licensing model. What I find is that when you buy equipment, you expect that you have a particular feature. By the time you want to use that feature, you realize that you need to acquire a license for it. That is the one thing that I think they need to improve on. Essentially, they need to open their licensing model such that when a customer buys a device, they have a full view of all of the available licenses for it. It's not at the time of use that the customer will now be informed that they need to purchase an additional license.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is not a license required for this solution but the price should be less expensive."
"Cost is a big factor. We would like to see the price reduced."
"You do need to pay a licensing fee to use the solution. You can do a yearly or three-year subscription. The product itself is quite expensive. It would be ideal if they offered the product at a cheaper price."
"The pricing is fine, though it might have been cheaper going through a partner or doing a direct buy."
"The price is a little high, more than what we wanted to pay. This is one area where we would like to understanding how the price could be brought down a bit more."
"The licensing model is good with this appliance: Bring Your Own License (BYOL)."
"Cisco Cloud Services Router is an expensive product. My company pays for the product yearly, and the price reaches roughly $800,000. Though Cisco Cloud Services Router is expensive and its competitors offer better pricing, when it comes to support, it's unbeatable."
"The cost needs improvement. It is very expensive through the AWS Marketplace."
"The pricing is good for what it offers."
"The product is inexpensive, but there is an extra cost for replacement of the device."
"The price of the solution is fair."
"There are additional licensing costs. I am aware of additional licenses and which services are added to the router."
"The price is reasonable compared to Cisco's."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"There is no licence for this solution, but the solution could be cheaper."
"Huawei Enterprise Routers’s cost is average. I rate its pricing a five out of ten."
