The best feature of the MikroTik Cloud Router Switch is its competitive price. We use RouterOS, their operating system.
In terms of security options and network monitoring tools contributing to maintaining our network integrity and performance, we use the MikroTik RouterOS included with the MikroTik Cloud Router Switch.
Regarding security and visibility in monitoring, it is very good, the GUI is very intuitive, and it has many more features than those from major vendors. The monitoring and debugging features are really good.

The most valuable features of MikroTik Cloud Router Switch are the hotspot and user manager features. They are particularly useful because, in my experience, most users prefer the hotspot feature. I manage the interfaces, configure routes, create users, and manage networks on the router.

In most cases, MikroTik is pre-programmed, so you don't have to spend much time trying to program or reroute something.
It is user-friendly, reliable, and cheap, affordable. They're very well suited for small and medium businesses. Here in Tanzania, in some cases, even some large enterprises are using MikroTik due to the fact that they provide many features at zero cost.
The initial setup is easy.
View full review »The simplicity of how one can set it up is the most valuable aspect. It's unlike Cisco. With Cisco devices, you have to go to the command-line interface to type the command. A MikroTik Router also has a command-line interface where there are options, just a user-friendly interface where you can click on some button and just type in some things and get done. You don't have to worry about remembering commands, on what line to put your command, or where to write a command. That's the feature I like.
It is easy to set up.
The solution is stable.
It's scalable.

The stability is good.
The solution is reasonably priced.
