    I think it's well suited for real estate management teams when they are drowning in data, but they're starting from insights. I think that's most appropriate. It's possibly not the right solution for smaller sites. So if it's very obvious where you need to go or you don't need that visibility because the office is particularly small, it doesn't make sense at all.

    This system is suited for all companies whether there are only 5 employees to hundreds - it's simple to use and professional. The history allows you to review staff timings, what visitors have been here within the last month (or more).

    Pros
    Cisco
    • So the first thing it does really well is a lot of our sites are rural, so we don't have very good cellular connectivity. So we invested in this product because we want our clients, our customers that are coming in to be able to walk in and be able to use a our wireless infrastructure just like it was a cellular device. So they don't even know, they walk in, they think, man, my cellular's better right now. I can do all the things that I wanna do. I can do video. And they don't even know. So that's the biggest bonus for us.

    • Great example of innovation for visitors to the business. We often hear remarks from visitors how impressed they are.
    • Simple yet effective method for employees to sign in out.
    • Simple administration tools to add/remove employees.
    • Information can easily be extracted into Excel.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • I would say out-of-the-box plugins. It's very easy to make it for DNA spaces, but I'd love to see more part more companies partner with them so that the plugins are just available to add on right out of the box. You don't have to work with a vendor and say, "Hey, I need you to come in and develop this API", it's already there. That would be the one thing that I would say that could get a little bit more help with.

    • now that covid is happening would be good to have covid consent?
    • quick print out of all the visitor so far would be handy when fire excise happens
    • sometime the printer is not connect properly.

    There is a strong commit from the management team to continue our investment into Spaces. We are currenly looking into options how to expand occupancy visibility into all meeting rooms (also those without collaboration device deployed) to gather even more granular real time data for all meetings rooms. So based on recent discussions I don't see the reasons, why we wouldn't proceed with the Spaces adoption.

    Spaces is very easy to use. I am glad that Cisco took the DNA platform and made it more user friendly. It is a simple single pane of glass that has every thing you need in one place. To me, it is very self explanatory

    Support staff is very helpful and responsive. When they give you a window of when they will get back to you, they try to aim to wait as minimal as possible. Support tries to have a least an idea of what the problem is and ask what troubleshooting have you done. They would prefer not to have to go over troubleshooting steps that didn’t work before.

    I had a lot of questions about the process, how it works, and if it will work for us. Mauro was initially the person I dealt with and he was a great help. Anything we couldn't do via email was scheduled for a call. There was no pressure to purchase but plenty of support before we signed and been the same since.

    We haven't used other commercial products. We have used a custom web-base interface that was limited in customizablity and data filtering. We also used paper sign-ins that had to be transcribed. SwipedOn is a improvement from both of those in that it is more customizable for a admin user and is easy for the students to use, so it seems to be increasing the the precentage of students who sign in and accuracy of the collected data

    • It is easier for students to use than our previous solutions which included paper signins that had to be transcribed into a spreadsheet and a custom webbased interface that we (the immediate admins) could not readily customize.
    • Data capture is about the same percentages, but we are more confident that the data is more accurate due to ease of use and not transcription errors.
