"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"Due to the sanctions on our country, we can't get outside help directly from Cisco. We need to handle the implementation ourselves."
"The solution's cloud management capabilities could be better."
"If Cisco can give you one license and allow you to use all the features, that would be the best thing. We are using it only as a voice gateway, and there are other options available, but we need to procure licenses to use those options. We can use it as a security device, or we can use it for connecting the LAN side, but for that, we need all those licenses. They can provide one license and allow you to use all the features. This is my recommendation for Cisco."
"Cisco could provide more information about their routers to allow customers a better understanding of their solutions. Cisco Enterprise Routers could improve by having some more advanced features."
"The price could be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"While the commands are easy to understand, and you will find a mixture, if you put a question mark on them then it will create problems."
"The solution is difficult to implement without a broad knowledge base."
"The product’s performance could be better."
"There isn't really any scalability potential."
"Essentially, they need to open their licensing model such that when a customer buys a device, they have a full view of all of the available licenses for it."
"The only problem I see is configuration loss."
"Syntax in the implementation process could be easier to understand for a new user or someone who doesn’t have prior experience using the product."
"The configuration is complex and should be simplified."
"There is not much of a technical team for Huawei available in Pakistan as compared to Cisco with respect to very complex networks."
"Lacks sufficient market availability."
