    These devices are still supported unlike most ISR800's, faster and cheaper than ISR 4000's. They are a true all in one box solutions. The IR1800 and IR1100 are great for DC power solutions, but are costly if environmentally hardened devices are not required. Coupled with a …

    Actually are used only because when I have an ISDN, I have to use it. If I don't need the physical connection, I will use c8000v.

    It's just a lot, I think more efficient and easier to use than the products that we had before. We haven't had like, a lot of problems with the ISR 1100 series routers at all.

    We are a mainly CISCO shop, so Junipers are out for the most part. We chose the ASR1001-x as it was an upgrade from the ASR1004 we were using previously. We required the ability to process a lot of traffic using 1G and 10G interfaces, with scalability and security features that …

    It provides similar functionality with very comparable ROI. This is the reason why we switched to this platform when 890FW platform reached EOL.

    The Cisco ISR 1000 series of router is a fixed configuration device which means that it is deployed in sites where there is unlikely to be changes in Wan or internet termination type. You do however have the flexibility that is built into the features of the Cisco IOS operating …

    It is all in one solution that attracts first. The administrator does not have to bother to configure multiple devices for Wi-Fi, VPN, Telephony, and Routing. This router has all in one with very easy to configure web portal.

    No one can match Cisco's reliability, support, and document. Cisco supports a wide range of interface cards and modules with more seamless integration than any other Layer 3 product.

    Generally speaking, Cisco routers can be very evenly matched with Juniper routers. Key differentiation for me is industry understanding, first party support, future-friendly development, and overall dependency. I know when it comes to hiring new engineers I'm also more likely …

    We have used DLink and Fortinet Routers. I find Cisco superior in management, reliability and overall network performance over the two. I will say Fortinet has not experienced any failures and does provide very similar functionality, I simply find Cisco to be my preferred …

    This is effective for businesses who need a network solution that works more or less out of the box, without having to coordinate multiple additional devices in the configuration process. Correspondingly, users with needs for more advanced functionality or configurability, or modification may benefit from a different model or different product line.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • Right now in the ASR nine twenties, we're having an issue with its shooting out power adapter errors when there really isn't any. And we're not really sure we're working with Cisco Tex to see if it's a bug and if there's a bug fix.

    Usability
    Cisco
    I would rate these routers useability as 9/10 - I've designed and deployed Cisco solutions for the last 20 or so years, so, therefore, know what I am buying and try to get an understanding of the capabilities before deploying. The Cisco 1000 series Integrated Service Router is a rock-solid investment with great throughput "out of the box".

    With any Cisco product, you are very well supported by the Technical Assistance Centre (TAC). This is one of the major plus points when selecting Cisco networking products - working in IT for the last 20years you soon appreciate that it is impossible to know everything and that there are people within Cisco you can lean-on when you need assistance.

    The implementation basically works, you configure it and it's easy to use, the problem with implementation using this kind of products is the fact that complex things require very complex configurations and the troubleshooting is too complicated due to a missing web interface or missing integrations that simplify that part. troubleshooting consist only in debugging via CLI.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Once they are installed they just work. Even when a device enters EOL/EOS they keep chugging along.
    • Good lifetime - they don't retire models so often that you can't keep up.
    • Good extended support, this allows us to keep them in place as long as possible (or practical) and increases our ROI.
