Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Business Edition 7000
I've set up collaboration nodes for a few of our customers. Used this to support small-sized and medium-sized deployments. Small being under 1000 users and medium being a 3000 user set up. Application servers came pre-installed/pre-deployed, so that saved a lot of our time which usually would've been spent in downloading iso files copying them to datastores and setting up the nodes.
- The fact that the nodes come pre-installed.
- Easy to set up.
- Saves a lot of installation, pre-installation time.
- Integrated email notifications on hardware failure.
- Expensive
- Easier and faster deployments.
- Costly.
I've used 220s and 240s too, but it takes a lot of time to set them up, a lot of time to download the iso files, and set up of datastores. 7k saves the engineer a lot of pre-build assessment and evaluation time. Gets a lot done in a lot less time, returns are a happy engineer and a happier customer.
