Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Ease of management is certainly the most valuable feature in this product.""I can quickly manage the provisioned servers.""The interface is ergonomic and native. We can use UCS Manager to do all the configurations for the servers, including storage, networking, and all the other components we need inside the fabric. It's simple and flexible.""It is more robust than other solutions. So, the stability is good.""From a usability and functionality perspective, Cisco UCS Manager is very good.""The solution is highly scalable, mainly because of the templates that make it easy for you to actually edit on the system.""The reporting functionality will give you any report you want.""The hardware is very powerful and it is a stable solution."

Cons
"Cisco UCS is expensive compared to others. The Cisco UCS Chassis is more expensive than a standalone server, but some companies require standalone servers because of their production load and affordability. You need to pay more if you require more features on the Blade or if you need more ports on the switch.""Getting a CLI report on routers, switches, or any other CLI configuration device is difficult.""The integration with other solutions could be better. I think Cisco can only integrate using Intersight. There is a second interface available as a SaaS platform, in the cloud, or on-premise. It's based on the Redfish protocol, which is standard for all the B-series servers in the market. We can integrate other solutions using API.""There is room for improvement in the software part of Cisco UCS Manager. It should be more user-friendly, especially when creating policies.""We have three data centers and if we could manage all three data centers using one interface, it would be great.""The pricing can be better.""The automation within the solution needs to be simplified.""The solution's pricing is high and could be reduced."

More Cisco UCS Manager Cons →

"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk.""The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility.""The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
