"It's an ideal gateway solution for small and medium businesses, i.e., around 300 devices can be easily handled."
"What's best about Cisco Cloud Services Router is the support. It's excellent, and so far, no significant challenges. Another valuable feature of the product is easy integration with other products."
"The most valuable features of the Cisco Cloud Services Router are the integration with Amazon and Oracle cloud."
"The most valuable feature of the Cisco Cloud Services Router is it can make your migrations smooth. For example, if you want to migrate to the cloud, but you don't want to change the IP. You can extend your VLAN from on-premise to the cloud without having to change the IP."
"The most important feature is that it is designed for mobile vehicle communication in harsh conditions."
"It seems pretty stable. We have never had any issues with it."
"It connects all the accounts with the weaknesses, and this is what we were looking for. Also, it connects with the on-premise side."
"The most valuable feature is the artificial intelligence assessment models."
"The routing service for NPLS called Layer 3-IP is fantastic."
"It's one of the more stable routers."
"I have found the most useful features to be layered VPNs, IPsec, VPLS, and firewall filters."
"The most valuable feature is reliability."
"In our company, we are integrators who create solutions for our customers. I find Juniper EX Series Ethernet Switches to be suitable as it allows for easy configuration and offers features like SNMP. Personally, I find it convenient to switch from Cisco to Juniper EX because of my experience with various vendors like Huawei and Cisco. It's easy for me to read configurations from Cisco and transfer them to Juniper. Mainly, we work with customers who want to change or upgrade their network infrastructure, moving from vendors like Cisco, Aruba, or Huawei to Juniper for modernization. Juniper's features are more advanced, and it helps us meet the diverse needs of our customers. My role involves helping with the deployment and configuration of switching, access points, and Wi-Fi, for building robust and modern networks."
"The full Internet DGP is a valuable feature."
"On the SRX, the firewall is very easy to configure, especially when you want to filter out traffic."
"I think that the extensions are very valuable. The way you can test the configuration before applying that configuration permanently is very helpful. The rollback configuration is also very useful."
"It is very stable and scalable."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"It is too complex. It is not easy to set up, even with the documentation that they provided. It is a little confusing."
"The initial setup is easy for one device but is more complex when numerous devices need to be configured."
"Technical support could be better. I am missing a single pane of glass, where I can see all the connections, etc."
"I would like the ability to moderate between devices on-premise to off-premise. This would be a vast improvement."
"The ease of use within the AWS environment needs to improve. Sometimes, it is very esoteric in how you use it. Therefore, you have to learn to use it, then you are able to."
"If you lose connectivity to the cloud, it is difficult to establish connectivity between hub and spoke."
"I would like some deployment examples and guides specific to AWS VPCs and how to separate your subnets. Then, how they tie-in with the Internet gateway and any NAT services that we are running on our VPC. This would be extremely helpful."
"You can use this router in a scalable solution but it has its limitations."
"The integration could be better."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. The product could be cheaper for smaller networks."
"Juniper Enterprise Routers could improve by adding a graphical user interface(GUI). They do not have one. Most of our team has to have a background or expertise in Juniper. When compared to other solutions, they have a GUI. It will be easier for new team members to get familiar with, configure, or set up the router. Additionally, adding some monitoring tools would help us."
"The web interface can be improved."
"The security features could be better."
"The solution needs to offer SDN features."
"It is not scalable, unfortunately."
"The solution could improve by providing enhancements to built-in SDN or SDWAN."
