Pros
  • It runs no matter how hot it gets. It's actually operated at times when it was exceeding its operational limits and continued to work.

Cons
  • The portdensity is poor (when compared to competition) which means that the IE-switches takes more space then competition.
  • The price is not competitive, only possible to ship/sell to customers that are set on the Brand. To say that Cisco has more features (to motivate that these units cost more then the double) is not correct, the competition solves the same stuff differently.

Alternatives Considered
The functions are easy to manipulate and deployment process is not complicated to the new users. Data modeling and data processing through this Cisco Catalyst platform is profitable and risk assessment is effective. Creating reports and new networks distribution is quite easy through this platform, as well as data access control.

Return on Investment
  • Before implementing these switches, production lines were constantly stopped due to network failures. This had a huge financial impact on the company.
  • In addition to mitigating those flaws, you now have complete network monitoring with the joint implementation of the Cisco Industrial Network Director.
