Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Broadcom and others in Network Management Applications."What I found most beneficial from Cisco Prime is that it gives you an insight into what your network does, even when you're not actively monitoring what's going on with your network."
"If an AP or any wireless device goes into critical mode, Cisco Prime sends an alert. That is the most helpful feature."
"Cisco Prime allows us to manage all the wireless controllers and access points."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"We use the solution to control the physical service station that is part of the SCADA network. We connect and control them remotely."
"The interfaces are a valuable feature."
"Cisco Prime is user-friendly, so we are comfortable using it."
"The solution provides data that allows us to time travel through logs and perform remote operations or troubleshooting."
"It allows me to do more of the basic firewall features, like traffic management and others, in a single pane of glass."
"The most valuable feature is the technical support, as it is better than others."
"A centralized platform is crucial for efficiently managing all of our switches, which were previously handled individually, leading to significant challenges."
"The most valuable feature is the management from a single pane of glass."
"It should be able to monitor Palo Alto, Juniper, and Check Point products - not just Cisco solutions."
"The solution has issues with real time monitoring of devices and NetFlow such as inadequate visualization for reports, sources, and destinations."
"Some improvements are needed, specifically in the form of more updates and enhancements."
"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 user interface of Cisco Prime could be more user-friendly and increase its performance."
"I rate Cisco Prime seven out of 10 for affordability. All Cisco solutions are expensive."
"Cisco can only be used for Cisco environments and is not compatible with other vendors."
"The solution is not easy to configure."
"Its interface should be improved and enhanced to offer various functions, with flexible pricing"
"I would like to see Space created to fully functional, where it's got multiple modules, particularly SD-WAN working on Corporate, or maybe become part of the Orchestrator portion."
"The upgrades are very time-consuming and difficult, and they often have to rebuild the product."
"I would like to them include network real-time performance and come up with a dashboard report."
