Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches Reviews

We use Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches for Wi-Fi connectivity.

The platform has not improved network performance enough. We encounter issues related to internet connectivity and random disconnection.

Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches’s stability and pricing needs improvement.

It is a reliable product. However, after six months, we came across internet connectivity issues. I rate the stability an eight out of ten.

We have 60 Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches users in our organization. It is a scalable platform.

The initial setup is easy. It takes around 15 minutes or a maximum of half an hour to complete.

I implement the product by referring to the documentation available on the internet in case of any technical errors.

The product is expensive.

I rate the product an eight out of ten.

We connect our Ethernet switches directly via LAN or with printers at every endpoint for user connectivity.

We are satisfied with the Cisco devices' scalability, and the integration and replacement are very easy. Their support is available online.

Some experts say that the price may be lower or that the ethernet switches are complex to set up and manage, maybe because of limited port density, supports, and quality of service, like capabilities. So that could be improved.

In the next release, Cisco switches can have built-in two or four fiber ports available for fiber connectivity.

I have been using it for 20 years.

It is very stable. Performance is very good.

It is a scalable solution. I would rate it an eight out of ten.

The customer support team is good.

Positive

The initial setup was straightforward. I would rate the setup an eight out of ten.

When we deploy anything, we rely on support from the product vendor or partner who sold them the product. The support available from the vendor or partner made it easy to deploy anything. They provided assistance with configuration and deployment.

Cisco's pricing is very high compared to other products on the market, such as Ruckus and Aruba.

I would give the pricing a rating of nine out of ten. Cisco's pricing is relatively high but still somewhat reasonable.

If someone wants long-term performance or relief in terms of connectivity or stability, they must use Cisco.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for the WiFi and the wireless. We use it as a switch. It can help with encryption and networking.

Since I am a certified user, I find the solution to be very smooth. It works very well. The solution offers good training so that users can remain up-to-date with the product.

The product offers a very professional experience. 

It helps us ensure we have wireless access points. 

I'm able to easily manage the solution. I can configure and monitor everything very easily.

It's a well-recognized brand and is widely used.

The solution is stable.

Cisco offers very good SLAs.

We've had some issues as we've increased usage. It might be the logic or maybe we just need more hardware. We're working on a fix to the problem.

The pricing is a bit high.

They need to develop better UI. Other products have a nice GUI.

I've used the solution over the last ten years.

This is a stable solution. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. We find the solution is also very secure. 

The solution scales well. It's not a problem if you need to expand. 

We have an SLA with Cisco, and they offer support and maintenance services. If you have a good SLA in place with Cisco, you get the help you need. Having the SLA helps cover the warranty or if something happens like a misconfiguration or a change. Overall, the support is good. 

I'm also familiar with Aruba.

The initial setup is very easy. We just follow the steps and handle the configuration. We also do any troubleshooting if there is any issue.

If the user wants another configuration, you adjust as needed. 

It is not difficult to maintain the product at all. If there are any urgent issues, we're on top of it. We make sure we can fix network issues quickly, should they happen, in order to maintain the business. 

I happen to have good SLAs for other problems and they cover things from the Cisco side.

The solution can be expensive. 

We have plans to upgrade our switches and are moving everything over to Cisco.

We're using the latest version of the product.

I have a deep knowledge of Cisco and have worked with it for a while. It doesn't really give us any issues. It's easy to integrate with devices. Many companies tend to use Cisco.

I'd recommend the solution to others. 

I would rate the solution nine out of ten.

We primarily use it for running our manufacturing operation.

Regarding improving our organization's functioning, the security provided by the solution can be considered an example.

I found the feature of having no downtime to be the most valuable aspect of the tool.

Right now, there aren't any improvements needed in the solution.

Feature-wise, there are no features that I would like to see included in the tool.

I would say it's been more than ten years that I've been dealing with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. It was version 9300, which I was using.

Speaking in terms of how it has improved the way our organization functions, we have experienced improved stability.

I have faced no issues with the stability of the solution.

Scalability-wise, the solution is good. On a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best, I rate the tool's scalability as seven since there are some limitations. Also, around a thousand users use Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches in our organization.

I haven't had any need to escalate any questions to the technical support team recently.

The initial setup of the tool was easy.

On a scale of one to ten, where one is the worst and ten is the easiest, I rate my experience with the initial setup as a nine.

When deploying the switches, the basic steps involved getting the architecture done and then deploying it. It was a lengthy process and took around three to six months.

We did not require a lot of staff members or resources for the deployment process. Also, the tool does not require any specific maintenance.

We have Accenture as our global partner, who handles the deployment process for us. They are the ones who do it for us.

For ROI, we generally recover it in seven years.

I cannot give any advice or recommendation for those who want to start working with Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. I also won't be able to recommend it to others. However, while I personally recommend this solution, I cannot publicly recommend it to anyone.

I rate Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches a nine out of ten.

The solution is used to connect to the local area network for the server room to connect our different floors, and levels, to interconnect all the users from different locations within the campus.

The most valuable feature is performance.

The solution's support can use improvement because they are not very good at following up. A reduction in cost can improve the solution. 

I have been using the solution for over one year.

The stability should be fine because I'm using Cisco, and I think I have no problem with that.

The solution is scalable.

Whenever we raise tickets we never receive further feedback or callbacks.

Neutral

We have always used Cisco products.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

Normally, we have a face-to-face implementation, so it could last three to six months for the implementation because there are a lot of teams involved, including security, and application.

The deployment was completed in-house.

I give the solution a seven out of ten.

We currently have 300 people using the solution and will probably be increasing that number in the near future.

We have 46 members on our technical team.

We use the solution as a switch. 

Ciscos Switches are one of the best switches in the industry.

Big players are using the product, including banks and companies in the financial sector.

Cisco is ubiquitous. It's used everywhere. 

They have many product lines. They have so many series that can cater to SMBs, banks, or telcos. They have a wide range of options. 

The setup is simple and straightforward. 

Techical support is helpful.

The stability has been good. 

Their price is quite high compared to their competitors. This should be less.

I've been using the solution for more than 15 years, or maybe for as much as 20 years.

We have 70 or more companies using the solution right now. 

We do have plans to increase usage at this point. 

Support is very good. They offer very helpful assistance. 

Positive

I'm also aware of Juniper Switches and Brocade solutions. People are also beginning to use Huawei products. Huawei is much cheaper in terms of routing and switching.

It's a simple setup. Cisco is simple plug-and-play. Starting is easy. If you don't want any complexity, then you can simply opt for plug and play. 

If you want more complexity or more security, that's still quite simple. They have spent so much time and expertise in education. Cisco education is everywhere. It makes it so that people are aware of Cisco Control and Cisco Command Line. Many users feel comfortable with it. 

The price of Cisco options is quite high.

I'm not sure which version of the solution I'm using. It might be version 10 or 11. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

We handled the implementation ourselves in-house. We did not have the help of any consultants or integrators. 

We have witnessed an ROI with this solution. 

The pricing is a little bit expensive. However, it does offer a good value for money. I'd rate it a three out of five in terms of affordability.

I am an end-user. I'm using the latest version of the solution. 

I'd advise potential users to just go for it. They will not be disappointed in this product. 

I would rate the product an eight out of ten.
