Cisco 5000 Series Enterprise Network Compute System (ENCS 5000) vs. Cisco Routers

It seems to me that it is a piece of equipment totally suitable for virtualization, it works perfectly either as an ISR or as an ASA Firewall. This 5000 series of equipment is a platform that is specifically designed and oriented to run VNF. This saves time and at the same time allows us to simplify operations.

The main reason to go with Cisco Routers is reliability. Other than that most engineers are certified to operate these routers. Other reasons are good technical support, quality community and familiarity/experience within the industry of networking. It is by default product to go with in many situations.

Incentivized

• Saving on cabinet space due to smaller footprint
• Easier to ship and handle than physical hardware
• Princing is very similar to the combined price of what it replaces.

Incentivized

• Experience tells us that using Cisco products is always positive since the quality/price is very well distributed.
• They reduce energy costs and the consumption of resources, optimizing efficiency to the maximum
• The equipment is prepared so that all kinds of people can use them.
• They have higher levels of access and service. Its functionality is one of the best on the market, its unmatched response. Cisco routers provide fast access and hassle-free connectivity and are renowned for their performance.
• TAC's service is by far the best
• accessible configuration manuals
