Cisco IoT Operations Dashboard (discontinued) vs. Socialtext (discontinued)

I would highly recommend Cisco IoT for viewing real-time network device visibility. The monitoring dashboard, besides being map based, is quite intuitive. You won't doze off even after hours of staring. Cisco IoT is notably useful for monitoring commonly connected assets such as ATMs or vending machines. I'd, however, not recommend solely relying on Cisco's traffic to dashboard encryption since it's a vulnerable channel.

We use Social Text as a platform to air our issues with different departments. We voice our concerns and suggestions so we can help find a solution to the problems we incur on a daily basis. We need to have social text as an app so we can communicate in real time not only during work hours.

• Search needs a ton of improvements. It was very slow a year ago
• Search result quality was also not that good
• I know they have improved their UI recently but when i used it last year it did not really have any design elements which could be used to make the articles look more presentable. It was important for us as we used it for external communication as well.

We have a lot of info in Socialtext already. It would be hard to get all that info out and port it to a different system

We did tests and as for the previous products there were some bugs so it was discarded and because of them we decided for Cisco that the price is high but it compensates with the network and its operations support that worked well in addition the technical support is fast.

I frankly like Confluence better than socialtext because of the speed and the quality of search. They also have better design elements which can help make the articles pleasant to the eyes.
