    IT would be nice to see the Cisco 8000 Series Secure Routers implement a simpler tiered approach to software licensing. It would also be great to see improved network access module options for cellular use specifically. The overall operations of the router are well integrated but the plug and play process could be improved a bit.

    It is useful in all the cases where users have to work via rdp. The possibility of making available to users only the applications they need is very useful. However, it is less appropriate in environments where there is a need for large computing power such as design studios. It would require a hardware requirement that is too economically high to be justified

    • Static routes not withdrawing in vrrps failover

    • The custom client doesn't always work with all applications, I solved it by configuring connections with classic RDP on individual PCs
    • the procedure for activating and renewing the licenses was not very clear to me, I went by trial and error but in the end I was able to activate it
    • nothing else in particular, everything works in a simple and intuitive way

    Usability

    I like that, even in SD-WAN mode, you can still get to the CLI. They are easy to configure from the console port, or a USB drive. I like how modular they are so we can order just what we need for that location.

    I use them for different roles. Though more importantly the size of the platforms, the 8K series is more forgiving :)

    It is much easier to manage and implement. Even if it is not very intuitive the management of licenses is still better than that of the Remote Desktop environment of Microsoft. With Microsoft, the limit is the ability to simply access the remote desktop, while with TS Plus you can manage individual applications so as to give the user only the tools he needs.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Ease of implementation and learning is excellent
    • The ability to go from not knowing anything to a fully configured provider-level routing device and the flexibility to use it in any scenario makes it super simple because that means that we will have several on-hand and can use them anywhere in our network
