The platform is good, robust, and scalable. It is much cheaper than Cisco ACI but unfortunately in Argentina, I have never seen this solution installed. You can only test it in a lab. The platform is ideal for NFVI, CSP, and Datacenter.

I can recommend the use of this software, the objective points that we had as an organization for months could be met. I am not saying that it is free of problems but it gives peace of mind and confidence that it is backed by a large company in the technology industry.

  • There are certain tools that need training to be able to use them. One of them is SASE which requires reading long documentation and the support of qualified engineers is needed. I think this is difficult and does not allow you to explore all areas of the Nuage environment.
  • There is intermittence in the afternoon hours. I mean by this that in the afternoon hours from 6 to 10 pm the platform does not load in the way it should, filling options are slowed down and the same thing happens in the early morning hours, the support team has not yet determined the exact reason for this.
  • Volume discount could not be negotiated. That in this case a really extensive investment was requested for first-time use of the product.

Alternatives Considered
Contrail is best [suitable] for Service Provider having [multiple outlay protocol] support. Both Contrail and NSX fulfill all requirements for DC Networking, NFV Cloud, and Private Cloud Networking requirements. Cisco ACI is more relevant towards Enterprises.
