We have used it as an ISR router or a virtual ASA firewall. Provides great flexibility and is very easy to administer. Cisco teams are flexible and easy to manage.No less data is that with this line it is possible to reduce the amount of equipment per headquarters since, as previously mentioned, different equipment can be virtualized, which allows us to save space and costs.

Virtualizing routers.
Less power required compared to physical hardware.
High performance.
Configuration options

An improvement point would be to correct the large number of bugs that were presented in the older versions, although in the new versions there is an improvement in this aspect.

Footprint.
Its interface is very friendly.
It allows the VNF certification of other vendors, thus guaranteeing compatibility and interoperability.

High availability.
Reduces rack unit space.
Made it easier for the logistics company to send hardware.

VIrtualizing routers and firewalls, just like VMWare for servers. A significantly smaller footprint in our network cabinets. We now have much less equipment to ship to our remote sites. This makes it extremely easy to spawn a new virtual network device, like a virtual ISR router or a virtual ASA firewall.

Smaller footprint
Less cooling required compared to physical hardware
Easy to allocate more compute resources to virtual guests if required.
Less power required compared to physical hardware

Earlier software versions (3.x) have had many bugs
Templates have not been working until 4.x
The largest model 5412 could use a hardware refresh like all the smaller versions just had.

Footprint
Power consumption
Easy User Interface

Saving on cabinet space due to smaller footprint
Easier to ship and handle than physical hardware
Princing is very similar to the combined price of what it replaces.

[They are used for] Routing needs for a specific department. We chose Cisco for the flexibility and ease of management. Also, since we have Cisco data center products, the learning curve is much smaller.

Flexibility
Configuration options
High performance

Yes very important, we use Cisco Data Center as well as switching products as well.

We have not, we have other products for this.
