We just finished a network overhaul, replaced some 10-20 year old cisco switches, still running, in a filthy factory setting where any surface has a healthy coat of plastic dust, surviving tons of reboots/power outages.
My experience with them has been absolutely solid.

Many running old rear end firmware too.

I used them all the time in schools. Whenever one died there were always more old-rear end Ciscos floating around the school system and you could get a replacement within about an hour or so.

Our Cisco gear has been very reliable. I have issues with the pricing and licensing, and a coworker has had issues with software bugs and TAC, but the overall experience has been pretty good. The world is still largely Cisco-first, so third-party stuff generally supports them, and they have some proprietary stuff that's good. We've had failures here and there, but we have a pretty large install base, so it's to be expected occasionally. Their documentation is pretty terrible, like most vendors; they like to explain in detailed technical terms what a feature does and give you line-by-line instructions for doing it, but not tell you what it's for or why you might want to enable it.

All top-tier network stuff is broadly good - you're not going to get bug-free software and different companies are better with their approach to support etc. It's when you have someone come along and propose replacing everything with UniFi that you have a good laugh.

My beef with Cisco support is having to output a show-tech 3 different times to 3 different people before the TAC case actually goes anywhere.

And crash files

and tracelogs

and random outputs in addition to the show tech (for the wrong version of IOS)

Then for the RCA they point to a single line from the logs.

Cisco's problems have nothing to do with route/switch and everything to do with literally anything they've done besides that. gently caress you Cisco Cloud Center you rank piece of poo poo

We recently encountered a bug where smart licensing was causing CPU failovers on equipment.

And of course, every time the CPU failed over, it broke something. 2-3 times a day until we just turned off smart licensing.
