theyre the most reliable, long lasting, well performing switches you can get. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
licensing on cat 9k devices are a huge shift from the norm and may require changing operations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The handling of these devices is very practical, the catalys series in one of the most complete series of switches that are on the market, since it has many security features and very useful protocols developed by Cisco. Personally, it is the most complete team since at the configuration level, having the basic knowledge of Cisco networks, you can implement it in your internal network without any problem.

One of the failures that I find to the catalyst series is the capacity of momoria that manages, the problems that occur are a little serious since it does not allow the access to manage the equipment and slowness in the process of the packages in the network.

Las empresas que eligen Cisco saben que la inversión inicial de costes puede parecer
engañosa. Es fácil de olvidar que el coste de la compra inicial de su red asciende
tipicamente al 20 por ciento de los costes totales de propiedad. A menudo, el 80 por
ciento restante procede de los gastos de costes operacionales, mantenimiento y soporte.
Sin embargo, con Cisco el coste total de propiedad desciende, debido a la reducción de
costes operacionales durante la vida del producto.
Las empresas que compran únicamente un switch por precio (por ejemplo, escogiendo un
producto de consumo, en vez de uno diseñado específicamente para empresas), no
suelen tener en cuenta el impacto de su decisión. Generalmente, no tienen en cuenta la
importancia de considerar factores tales como la escalabilidad, si la empresa creciera, y la
fiabilidad. Esto resulta a menudo en costes ocultos tales como caídas de red y pérdida de
productividad.
El soporte técnico y las opciones de financiación de Cisco ofrecen a las empresas soporte
continuo, ayudando a superar muchos de estos problemas y añadir valor al dinero a largo
plazo.
Incluso porque la tecnología de Cisco es de la más alta calidad, y está diseñada para ser
fácil de gestionar, el coste total de propiedad es generalmente más bajo que los
productos de la competencia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No me disgusta ningún aspecto, lo único que todos sabemos es que el precio de los equipos Cisco es un poco alto, con lo cual se hace difícil en ciertas situaciones la compra del mismo equipo.
Ventajas en contra del precio
Fiabilidad (simplemente no pueden afrontar los costes debidos a la inactividad del
sistema).
Seguridad avanzada (protegiendo los activos de sus datos y por consiguiente la
integridad y continuidad de su negocio).
Tecnología que pueda crecer con su negocio (para que puedan capitalizar el potencial
de la tecnología y aplicaciones, tales como VoIP y tecnología inalámbrica).
Garantía de Producto (de modo que sepan que la inversión de tecnología está
protegida). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We purchased the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X model for four branches to be used as an access switch. I'm really enjoying it, until then I've used basic features like VLANs, dhcp snopping, and bandwidth management. It was very easy to set up and they are working very well. We need to use technical support two times and everything went well, very quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

catalyst switches are excellent switches that help a small or medium company in the solution of scalability, they are switches that adapt to the environment that each company has. It has very solid solutions, such as portsecurity, segmentation of networks (VLANS). This is one of the functions that I like most about switches because it is very easy to do and configure it, compared to other competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
what disgusts me about this product are its high cost, because being one of the most recognized brands and used in the world of networks is put as first place and with a high price but for a good solution offering good features and services . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Cisco Catalyst switches are great because of all of the 10 gig capability and Wireless controller management built in to one system. On top of that they are stackable and can be configured together as one management plane. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Soon after we received the 3850s it was time to move on to the 9300 series. Both products are great it was just the quick life cycle that created turn around for more work since we purchased the 3850s later and closer to its projected EOL date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Catalyst switches have many features built in, many of which go unused by most users. Those features are both layer 2 and 3. Have a Catalyst switch in place and have a new requirement? Chances are the switch may already support your new requirements.
TAC provides great support to resolve existing issues or provide config guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bugs and syntax changes. Software updates sometimes change command syntax and finding the updated documentation can sometimes put your search skills to the test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The consistency across the Cisco IOS platform makes configuration, troubleshooting, and learning much more efficient and beneficial when moving between different models/series. Additionally, the Cisco support structure sets a golden standard for the industry (and really any support model). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Inconsistency between some of the nomenclature for commands (e.g. port channel vs ether channel). Additionally, some of the configuration guides can be cryptic at times, and really takes a bit of trial and error (or consulting with the community). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
