More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"I like that is easy to work on and straightforward.""The product makes the management of our environment simpler.""After installation, you almost forget that it is working.""Monitoring system provides a clear indication of what's going on in the network.""Fabric suite automation is a great feature.""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 interface of this solution is easy to use overall.""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."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"Could integrate better with VMware products.""One of the biggest challenges is that we aren't always able to push the configuration onto the target device. Whenever this happens, we have to do a factory reset, put on the script, and then reconfigure it again. In the next release, I would like to have a troubleshooting feature.""It is not very easy to monitor or to browse.""It would be nice to have the ability to more easily collect information from other software when doing some types of analysis.""We need better performance and reliability.""The reporting is not very intuitive and has room for improvement.""The delivery Cisco Data Center Network Manager could improve if it was easier. Additionally, some feature improvement is needed.""The tool's pricing strategy could be improved to compete more effectively in the market, especially against competitors like Huawei, Aruba, and Juniper."

More Cisco Data Center Network Manager Cons →

"One area that could be improved is the reporting features. In the version transformation from ten to eleven, the platform changed from a Windows-based platform to a Linux-based platform. As a result, the previous reporting feature using Crystal Reports was no longer available. Instead, we had to generate PDF dashboard reports, which were not as flexible."
