Cisco Catalyst Assurance vs. Selector Analytics

So not everyone is in need of a smart AI checking their network metrics looking for issues before they happen or finding and alerting on problems that the network staff may not have noticed, but if you have the budget for it, it could be a huge time saver for your whole department.

Selector Analytics has proven very useful for our SRE and DevOps teams. It addresses our concern of being able to monitor network health and gives good analytics for our needs. It also helps with problem identification quickly so that we can resolve any potential issues. Getting an idea of network health allows us to identify potential problems beforehand, and we can take measures to fix them.

Cisco DNA Analytics and Assurance definitely has a steep learning curve. While it's had an upgrade to its onboarding, it's still a very technically heavy application that requires knowledge of Cisco networking and terminology. I think keeping that in mind helps with the expectations, but anyone can use the application with a little training and experience.
