Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst Switches

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use it to connect various networking nodes such as Ubuntu machines or routers, and also PPPOE simulators together to create various types of networks and manage various network schemes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

I believe the features on the Cisco Catalyst Switch do well in switching and connecting devices together, counseling in to it, and applying various modes and options to the switchboards.

Cons

I believe the area that this product has for improvement is the latency in which it takes to connect a switch together.

Return on Investment

This has definitely a positive impact. I believe the Cisco Catalyst Switch has allowed us to make and maintain larger networks easier, connecting together various servers to our vast DOD simulations.

I haven't evaluated many, but I have used also the older versions of the Cisco Catalyst Switches, like the eight thousand, and the seven thousand before. I believe that it has more features and more scalability.
