Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Routers
They are used at our corporate office, and at our branches. We pulled them out of our datacenters because they did not meet our needs from a feature perspective. We use them for normal branch DIA, IPS, and AutoVPN back to a concentrator behind more capable firewalls/routers.
Pros
- CLI
- Flexability
- Feature Set
- Ease of Use
Cons
- Licencing
- product line simplification
- sd-wan without vedge container
- They have gotten much more expensive from a licensing perspective making numbers harder to quantify.
- Allowed us to go from 2 box model to one box model
- allowed us to reduce mpls costs.
In my opinion, we do not like the Meraki MX compared to Cisco Routers. It is not flexible enough for our needs and is only really viable for very simple east to west traffic. From my experience, for a "Firewall" it has an awful policy management interface that manages to be so featureless but so confusing at the same time.
