The solution falls under the pricier category, but it provides value for the price charged. The exchange rates of USD and the currency of Egypt should be taken into consideration before buying any product. Our company has to pay additionally for maintenance or support.

Cisco is an expensive solution. It was not cheap. We only use it sometimes for this reason. Licensing can be yearly or permanent, depending on what you decide.

While Cisco products are excellent, the problem is the cost. Cisco products are product, Cisco products are very expensive. I rate Cisco FabricPath three out of 10 for affordability.

While it is a very useful product, it is expensive. We find the value we get to be worth the money we spend.

The prices for FabricPath are very high, and Cisco also takes a long time to deliver products (in Mexico, the delivery time is eight months).

The solution is pretty expensive. We have to pay a yearly licensing fee.

The solution is very, very cheap compared with all other brands - including Huawei or HPE Switches. We buy Cisco for the performance, really the performance, scalability, backup, and a lot of technology like VPC, OTV, or VDC, Virtual Device Context. It's good.

The price of Cisco FabricPath could be reduced, it is expensive in the market here. The solution is available as perpetual, subscriptions-based, and Tier-based licensing, if the customer wants any future integrations, or if there are any future enhancements they will have to pay. Purchasing a subscription-based license gives you the opportunity to adjust/upgrade the terms of the license (such as moving from Advantage to Premier) at the time of license renewal.

The pricing could be lower, which would make it easier to sell to clients. Cisco has an entire product line and a setup team, which looks at the marketing and how to position the product, and I believe they do take this into consideration when launching and pricing their products. That said, it would be helpful if the product was more competitive in the pricing category.

LAN Switching
What is a LAN switch? LAN switches are devices that connect different components of a network. They take data that is moving through the network architecture and make sure that it arrives at the device that is designated as its ultimate endpoint. LAN switches are a very specific class of network switches. They connect network devices across a limited area. This network could be the size of a segment of a single building or a small campus that spreads out over several miles. LAN switches are...
