Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Ethernet Switches

Cisco ethernet switches are used in many environments in our data centre and also in our office networks. We have been using Cisco Catalyst and Nexus devices for many years and they are enablers for all data communication in our company and provide us the possibility to focus on our core business.
  • Operating Cisco devices are easy since Cisco IOS is well known by specialists
  • They scale well to many environments
  • Reliability
  • Price
  • Too many software versions available
  • Cisco switches helps our company to focus to our core business, instead of focusing on the network
Both vendors can produce good switches and I don't find big differences from reliability or technical level between them
Cisco switches will fit into multiple locations in a data centre as well in campus area for small to large organizations. In very tiny installations other options might be more cost-effective.
