Considered Both Products	Cisco IOS Security TO Thomas Osborne Network System Administrator Chose Cisco IOS Security IOS Security is a bonus feature when you purchase Cisco devices.

EV Eduardo Viero IT Infrastructure Specialist Chose Cisco IOS Security It’s not a secret for anyone that Cisco provides the best routers with the most reliable software on the market.

Likelihood to Recommend	Cisco When it comes to security on the edge of your network (downstream) Cisco's IOS security features provide pretty much everything you need when it comes to securing your network, network devices, and access. I would absolutely recommend Cisco switches due to many reasons, but a big reason is security. Incentivized TO Thomas Osborne Network System Administrator Read full review
Pros	Cisco Authentication. Access lists. Port security. Incentivized GH Girgis Hady IT Network Manager Read full review
Cons	Cisco Cisco could provide an initial set up script for those are not used to the CLI (Command Line Interface). With that initial script, people could easily deploy the security features instead of having to learn how to use the commands. The web interface that Cisco provides with the routers, although it’s useful to set up the security features, it could also have some sort of tutorials to help people understand the main concepts of iOS security. You have to license iOS security separately from the main OS. For that reason, sometimes it tends to be a little expensive if you have a small business.

Support Rating	Cisco Cisco has the best Support team that gives us 24/7 support as we need. Cisco has huge detailed documentation for design, implementation, and troubleshooting all areas of the IOS security. There are many communities discussing all Cisco devices and solutions for studying groups and for customers to share their stories, technical problem and solutions.

Return on Investment	Cisco Cisco iOS security helped our business deploy a relatively safe solution for a small amount of money. If you don’t have enough budget to invest in a robust and expensive firewall solution, you can safely use Cisco iOS security to protect your branch or remote office without compromise your network. Because Cisco iOS security uses a simple command-line based interface, you can deploy standardized scripts and keep the operational costs low.
