A scalable solution that is easy to implement that needs to consider increasing its monitoring capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "Our organization uses Cisco Intersight since it helps manage our physical infrastructure."
  • "In the future, the solution needs to plan on an extension to cover a broader range of objects since, at present, there are some Cisco devices within the range of Intersight UCS that it can't manage."

What is our primary use case?

Our organization uses Cisco Intersight since it helps manage our physical infrastructure.

What is most valuable?

I am still assessing the solution's features since I haven't found it to be all that valuable till now.

What needs improvement?

There is still some work to be done on the solution. It does take care of the monitoring part but doesn't do it too well. Functionality-wise, it also doesn't manage as well as it used to do in the past.

In the future, the solution needs to plan on an extension to cover a broader range of objects since, at present, there are some Cisco devices within the range of Intersight UCS that it can't manage.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Cisco Intersight for about six months. I am using the solution in our company. I am using the solution's latest version. My company has a partnership with Cisco Intersight.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support by Cisco is very good. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I use SolarWinds NPM. Though SolarWinds NPM and Cisco Intersight are used for slightly different purposes, they are both essentially used for monitoring.

SolarWinds NPM is able to monitor a much larger range of devices compared to Cisco Intersigh. Intershight can predominantly be used for other Cisco devices only.

How was the initial setup?

The product is deployed on-premises.

The product was easy to implement.

The deployment phase was done in a week.

One person was required for the implementation process.

During the installation procedure, the tool was deployed the way I needed it.

What about the implementation team?

I was involved in the solution's installation.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Market share is one advantage Cisco Intersight has over its competitors.

What other advice do I have?

At present, it is not easy to integrate Cisco Intersight with products from other vendors.

It can be reasonably set up, and it is easy to get it running after that.

The product is good and works with other Cisco devices.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Scalable, simple setup and good integrations
Pros and Cons
  • "The product has good integration."
  • "When new features are added, the service becomes full of bugs."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is for monitoring locations. We are partners with Cisco.

What is most valuable?

I find the integrations to be the most valuable feature. 

What needs improvement?

One of the issues is that they are integrating a lot of technologies into the product and when new features appear, the service becomes full of bugs and doesn't work. I have to wait while they go back and make the application stable again. I'd like to see more integration with other companies. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using this solution for three years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable most of the time, it's only when new features are added that it becomes less stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is pretty scalable. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is simple. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate this product a seven out of 10. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
