This separation provides high throughput, maintaining line-rate performance across the MX platform."
"The solution is stable."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"Over time things have changed where Cisco has not invested in improving the orchestration and simplifying it for people who do not want to get into the details. Cisco has not gone into that focus."
"The UI could be more user-friendly."
"When compared to PEPLink, Cisco Enterprise Routers are less flexible, and you cannot have more than one user."
"They are pretty expensive devices."
"Their software-defined paradigm requires significant improvement."
"Tends to have a short life cycle."
"Having a well-designed graphical user interface would make this product easier to use."

"The price of this solution should be improved."
"The initial setup is not easy."
"Juniper have addressed issues with the MX204, but it still has a limited number of interfaces. Ideally, it should support up to twenty or twenty-four interfaces to better serve smaller service providers. Additionally, the MX304 doesn't support subscriber management, also known as BNG, which I believe should be included."
"The web interface can be improved."
