We have used Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V Series (CSR 1000V) as the gateway router to our cloud platform. It is a great product to have full control on our environment and also integrate with our on-prem Radius/TACACS infrastructure. we use use this device to do traffic engineering in/out of our environment. We used this to circumvent the TGW infra on the cloud platform. we also use this effectively to manage different zones and segregate traffic for VPC-based traffic engineering.

Cloud gateway
Traffic engineering
VPN/VPC-based zones, DMVPN

License management can be improved, we should be able to use our EA agreement licenses
Pricing and cost of router could be more simplified
This could be made cost-effective as in current price models, but this cannot be adapted by small-medium businesses

Available in virtual mode, helps reduce physical implementation
Very easy to implement and use
VPC-based routing and traffic engineering and monitoring
On-prem network integration is very simple

As this is available on AWS workplace, it's easy to configure and implement
Absolute worth for money, easy ROI
With the Cisco global support model, this becomes very easy to configure and troubleshoot and becomes part of my overall asset list
License management could be simplified and made more cost-effective

We used the Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V Series to connect our on-prem network to our cloud environment in Microsoft Azure. We had some complicated routing and certain protocols we needed to pass that were not possible with the native VPN setup in Azure. The template was rather easy to find and "purchase" through the marketplace. Setup was the same via ios as on any isr.

Functions like any physical ISR router.
Can be sized according to need.
Easy to purchase and documentation was up to date.

Features on demand for more money is kind of annoying.
Seemed like there was an excessive amount of IP addresses I needed to assign to get it to work even though I didn't use them.
Cost is high for a piece of software.

Support for all protocols that a ISR supports so you can maintain feature parity.
Same configuration as any other piece of cisco equipment so no need to learn new code.
Can be upgraded in size with the click of a button.

We were able to quickly and efficiently setup connections to Azure.
We outsource our network team so having a single platform makes our support costs less.
We had no need to redesign our existing on-prem network to allow mesh connection to Azure.

I am using this personally at my employer in order to simulate topologies and troubleshoot technologies.

Easy and available to download with a CCO account.
Full-featured router platform.
Can run as many instances as you have memory to handle.
No issues so far running in VMWare player 14.0.

Would be nice if the license expiration simply limited throughput rather than removing features.
Better compatibility with VMWare player would be nice. Specifically, making sure you open the serial console almost immediately after turning on the VM.

I don't need to use outdated hardware for testing.
Don't need a dedicated power feed to spin up a usably-sized network.

They provide a huge benefit and scalability to our IP transit networking. We also use them as for wan and QoS.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Network Based Application Recognition (NBAR)

More integration with the switching
A dynamic approach for software updates
More automation features and APIs

We barely have to touch the routers as they are rock solid.
They are a bit costly to what else is in the market.
The low end routers still include firewalling.

Yes it was a big integration decision and integrates with the network. The ability to automate is also a huge benefit.

We have not been able to use this thoroughly but the zone based firewall is very useful.

We have had no incidents in many years related to our Cisco routers even with software updates there has been no issue.
