"I don't have to rely on the on-site engineer who can do the configuration. I can have our team just plug the devices and perform remotely. I can also do the templates.""The tool's most valuable feature is the consolidated dashboard, providing insights into parameters and overall usage of network features. It allows us to easily summarize insights through the dashboards. The solution offers automation capabilities, particularly in the context of connecting LAN sites with websites.""Data Center Network Manager is absolutely stable.""You can integrate all the networks into the software.""The product makes the management of our environment simpler.""I like running the scripts. With the help of a Python script, we deployed within the configuration and built up the code.""Fabric suite automation is a great feature.""Automation of the ILS."

"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement.""The technical support needs improvement."

"Could integrate better with VMware products.""The visibility of applications is not great.""Automation for the RMA process can be added.""API lacks robustness.""It would be nice to have the ability to more easily collect information from other software when doing some types of analysis.""If the customer thinks about using additional solutions, Cisco should make sure they are not left out.""Data Center Network Manager is a little complex because it includes a lot of hardware to be installed.""We need better performance and reliability."

It's all I can think of right now off the top of my head."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The solution is very expensive."
  • "The product is licensed with contracts that work on a yearly basis rather than a monthly model."
  • "On average, Data Center Network Manager's pricing isn't too costly unless you choose a premier license."
  • "When we purchase a Nexus box, the MDS CM license comes with it."
  • "The price of Cisco Data Center Network Manager is expensive compared to other vendors on the market."
  • "I would say that the pricing offers great value for the money."
  • "We usually opt for a yearly plan, commonly for three or five years upfront. Some customers may not utilize all the features included in the product, and this can lead to them paying for functionalities they don't need."
  • More Cisco Data Center Network Manager Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing is reasonable but licensing should unlimited."
  • "One thing that needs improvement is how it's licensed. I understand historically the company licensed it off a same charge for everyone. I understand the company needs to make money, but how they introduced the tiered licensing model, and then multiple layers of licensing was a bit of an issue. So, on the whole, coming up with a licensing model that isn't confusing and complicated and is easy to understand would be one way to improve the product. They have told me lately that they're changing how they license stuff, but they haven't made that - as I understand it - in their marketing material public knowledge as of yet. I would say that at the moment it's a bit convoluted. It's confusing. Some of their basic licensing model is a bit of a ripoff. If you go over five or ten support calls in the basic licensing model they start charging you for support calls. I think that's a bit rich."
  • "Up until we actually talked to Statseeker, and Statseeker came and gave us an enterprise licensing model for multiple accounts, I would have said the pricing was not good value. The fact they've come to the party now and given us a very good discount, I would say it's probably about right, the pricing they're giving us now. But the retail pricing, if I went out and, as a separate company, and asked for pricing for one account, I probably would say their retail pricing is not competitive. The fact that they've given us a discount now because we have multiple servers across multiple accounts, I would say that pricing is about right, but not their retail pricing. It's too expensive."
  • "We now feel the pricing is a good value. Previously we had a just a normal license but now we've got an Enterprise license. Since the Enterprise, it's been a lot better value. We did think it was pretty expensive before, but with the Enterprise license it's almost less than half that price. If you have a number of accounts within the organization that use Statseeker, I would suggest get the Enterprise license."
  • "We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."
  • "We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year."
  • "It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."
  • "It's probably $5K a year for the license."
