Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Broadcom and others in Network Management Applications."It helps us manage and monitor analytics and fix issues."
"The dashboard is a valuable feature. It's very clear, and the metrics make it easy to see the current network situation."
"The solution's configuration management tool is amazing because it centralizes and pushes configurations which saves a lot of volume and effort."
"The most valuable feature of Cisco Prime is the heat map."
"The installation is easy."
"We use Cisco Prime for network mapping and surveys."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Cisco Prime, from a management perspective, has good reporting."
"Scalable solution for tracking and syncing through the Infoblox grid."
"Maybe it could be a little cheaper."
"Cisco Prime could improve the graphical user interface."
"Cisco Prime could improve the notifications in the system. Having more details about what is happening would be useful, such as traffic numbers or who is connected. We can see them through the firewall controller, but it would be better if you can see them from one place."
"Lacking in integration with a SIEM tool."
"I would rate the scalability of Cisco Prime a six out of ten. To scale up from a hundred to a thousand devices, the platform needs to be rebuilt logically. This process might require a downtime window and may involve changing the hardware or upgrading to a larger appliance."
"Cisco needs to improve Prime's monitoring tab. If any device goes down, there is a 15-second lapse before we know. It would be much better if we were alerted two or three minutes before a device is about to fail, so we can dispatch a field engineer and avoid network downtime. I would like to see a feature that allows you to access the devices directly from Prime's monitoring tab. That would make work easier for us."
"The overall management capabilities of Prime need to be improved."
"The solution has issues with real time monitoring of devices and NetFlow such as inadequate visualization for reports, sources, and destinations."
"Lacks network overview for the entire connected network."
