Pros
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the expansion and replacement of parts.""Excellent server solution with incredible network throughput.""In terms of the features that I have found most valuable, that is basically the hardware, which is more dynamic.""The server can be configured easily.""Its hardware is really reliable. We also like Cisco for its support.""The solution is scalable.""The C-series is the most valuable.""The most valuable feature of Cisco UCS C-Series Rack Servers is server management."

Cons
"There is very little scalability for the cluster. If you need a higher availability, there is a user limitation. So that is the low side.""The initial setup could be easier.""Definitely the support area needs improving. Especially the time response in case of hardware failure.""Its accessibility and manageability can be improved. Currently, we have to visit the office to manage it. It should be manageable outside our network. I would like it to be on the cloud.""I think the pricing is high. Cisco has to look for bundling this solutions with other applications.""On the contact center and video conferencing, I would definitely like to see more AI features. The AI features are key for us. You will find a lot of them in the cloud-based solution, but in the on-premises solution, they're hardly there. I would like to see the same AI features that are there in the cloud-based Cisco UC.""The C-Series is not designed to be as scalable. They are designed to have enough RAM and enough CPU on their own side. If you want scalability, it's better to choose the B-Series— the Blade Servers — because those are much more scalable with Fabric Interconnect.""The warranty and support periods should be extended."

"In the next release, I'd like to see more features not in the hardware but in the platform where I can manage all the servers and the hardware of the servers."
