The [Cisco 800 Series Industrial ISR (IR 800)] is great when we need to add a small new site in a very short time.Our previous experience with these units makes the roll-out of new sites quick and almost seamless.The 800 series excels in locations where we want to tunnel all traffic back to the core site.Split tunneling for "SD-WAN" type use is not as functional as in other products.

Cisco [800 Series Integrated Service] Routers, [specifically] 819 routers, are well suited for small offices like remote teleworker sites, and a very perfect solution for operating automated teller machines (ATMs) at locations where the only source of network connectivity is via a mobile network operator where one has to use a SIM card. The fact that the router supports dual SIM makes it a great solution. However, I guess because one has to configure the embedded modem to function as desired, it takes some time to get used to [the] chat scripts and so on.

- [Cisco 800 Series Integrated] Routers can form tunnels over a cellular network via the SIM inserted into it.
- With an external antenna attached to it, their coverage is very good, making them suitable for remote sites where network coverage from ISPs is a concern.
- They function as a switch and router in one device.

Cisco 800 Series Industrial ISR (IR 800)
- Most are single power supply
- If they aren't a full 19" 1U device you have to purchase rack ears separately from the device
- VPN tunneling can be a bit of a configuration challenge

Cisco 800 Series Integrated Services Routers (ISR 800)
- Being one of the most versatile routing/switching platforms available, it fulfills most functions one would need in a compact appliance.
- I have not experienced lack of functionality in any areas we use the appliance for.
- One small feature I would like to have is 19" rack mount.

Cisco routers can be configure and forgotten unless you are adding to the configuration or on the rare troubleshooting event.

I think Cisco is a good product that offers a huge list of options where you can get support from. I find that forums, blogs and communities really assist wit resolving any issues that you might come across.

The Meraki Z3 falls into roughly the same category as the 800 series and requires no daughter card for PoE.The Meraki MX are more expensive and require more infrastructure to support.The Meraki units also completely stop working when licensing is not renewed, and are more in the class of an SD-WAN product.

We looked into setting up Site to Site VPN with either Cisco ASAs or [Fortinet] FortiGate Firewalls. We were unable to find a product that didn't also require us to set up an LTE modem separately. It would have forced us to have a mess of cables and multiple devices. Our kit for the field with the Cisco 800 [Series Integrated Services Router] is simple: router, power cables, and wireless access point. Everything is labeled and attached plugs into one device. Any field user can follow the instructions [to] get up and running quickly.

Not every router can handle all situations and so you have to purchase the upgrade to do handle the new requirements.

- The long-term stability is great, we have very few problems, resulting in low maintenance costs.
- Configuration for almost all routers in the basics is the same, so there's a very short learning curve per model.
- Running some models of Router for more than 10 years of stability, so the ROI with the devices is greater than expected on starting.
