"Great learning Tool for Students and Network Engineers for IOT Simulations"
5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Packet Tracer?

I've used these tools to perform University Projects simulations and learn CCNA Labs. Mostly Network Engineers use this tool to build skills-related Network Topologies. Cisco Packet Tracer has ISO for testing Network Environment and can export pkt configuration files. Graphical User Interface easily to learn, we can analyze network flow with proper configuration.

"Is Cisco packet tracer better than other simulation softwares?"
3/5
What do you like best about Cisco Packet Tracer?

This software helps to perform real-time simulations. All of its brand devices are there to help u to gain expertise in this field. All of the devices are upgraded as a new update introduces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Packet Tracer?

Hmm here is a question now our country uses other brands' devices and now there are some issues due to different of commands. The second problem is their prices are so high as compared to other brands. If their prices remain the same I would prefer to buy other brands due to their high prices.

"Most efficient Network Simulation application"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Packet Tracer?

cisco packet tracer is one of the best network design application. it provides feature of live network simulation and how your network is efficient. The best thing is that we can design our own PC with self defined IP address and MAC address. And can send e-mail to the connected PC in our network design. Easily can used for virtual lab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Packet Tracer?

The User Interface is not attractive. And the search functionality and simulation process is very difficult, and the different equipment of the network is not directly available. Initial instruction is not available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A very easy to use IOT simulator for experiments!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cisco Packet Tracer?

Cisco Packet Tracer is a very unique application as it ables the students to perform the IOT experiments by just connecting all the components with the wires. The students are also able to get the components like home gateway and servers which are not usually obtained in the physical way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cisco Packet Tracer?

Cisco Packet Tracer does not allow for guests to login the application for more than three times and the guests are not able to save the experiments which are performed. The UI is not made typically for a normal user and hence the students take time to understand the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
