Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The management is one of the most valuable features of this solution.""Cisco UCS has different layers of security, and you can do multiple installations of your LIAMs on top of the server and Blade. You can install VMware, Windows Server, Hyper-V, etc.""Ease of management is certainly the most valuable feature in this product.""When one server fails, we can attach the service profile to a new server, which saves a lot of time.""I can quickly manage the provisioned servers.""I can deploy something in my 50-odd servers all in one go, in parallel, whereas if I was to do that individually, it could be a nightmare.""We can configure the Cisco UCS Manager, the profiles and interactions with the resource we manage.""The hardware is very powerful and it is a stable solution."

"Real-time alerting is a very important feature. We need alerts for everything. We have alarms setup and get alerts through email or third-party integrations depending on what's happening – critical VMs, high CPU usage, security concerns."

Cons
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to their security.""Getting a CLI report on routers, switches, or any other CLI configuration device is difficult.""The automation within the solution needs to be simplified.""The interface and the way it is constructed is very complex. They should work to simplify it. It's quite difficult for somebody who doesn't know the product very well. Users should be able to get proficient with it faster. There's definitely room for improvement there.""Cisco UCS Manager is not a scalable solution because once you have 160 blades, it cannot be expanded more.""I would like to see Cisco UCS optionally work as a hyper-converged system because right now, it only operates as a converged system.""We have three data centers and if we could manage all three data centers using one interface, it would be great.""The solution's pricing is high and could be reduced."
