"It can be very expensive, sometimes, to do the jump to the next router for your needs."
"Cisco Enterprise Routers could improve by making their solution more user-friendly.

"Cisco could improve by reducing the delays in receiving physical devices."

"We'd like them to be capable of adding firewall options to the license."
"The solution could improve by providing enhancements to built-in SDN or SDWAN."
"The initial setup is not easy."

"Juniper Enterprise Routers could improve by adding a graphical user interface(GUI). They do not have one. Most of our team has to have a background or expertise in Juniper. When compared to other solutions, they have a GUI. It will be easier for new team members to get familiar with, configure, or set up the router. Additionally, adding some monitoring tools would help us."
