Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers
We use 22 Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers in our organization for ~10K APs. They are set up in HA mode and have been great to use so far. The management GUI is intuitive and full featured. They have a nice tie in to Catalyst Center for an overall view of the entire network.
Pros
- Stable
- Full Featured
- Intuitive
Cons
- Tie in to Catalyst Center has some gaps in knowledge
- It would be nice to have an automatic way to set up site tags
- It is a little slow at times
- Faster Mean Time to Resolution
- Quicker deployments
- More bugs that you would expect on Cisco Recommended Code
It is pretty easy to configure policies across hospitals
Similar configuration since they are both IOS XE
