Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers

It is being used by the whole department. The main business problem it addresses is Wi-Fi 6 compatibility.

Pros

  • Improved GUI
  • Support traditional Catalyst CLI commands
  • Ease of Deployment
  • Wi-Fi 6 Support

Cons

  • Support for traditional settings.
  • More documentation and guides.
  • Legacy model support.
  • Wi-Fi 6 support
  • New deployment strategy is more complicated than traditional deployments.
HA is of main concern for large enterprise deployments and the 9800 satisfy the needs for redundancy and no downtime.
As long as HA is configured and deployed no such issues for availability occurs. Standalone controller design is not advised for availability.
The new software, features, and improved GUI come up to par with its competition.
For large-scale and state-of-the-art deployments. Not suited for small-scale deployments.
