Hmmm, well if you're in a Cisco heterogeneous world, with LOTS of network
devices to manage it's a good tool.  If you only have 6-12 network devices
to manage I can think of several open source tools that will do the job.
The only real high point I see with it is it gives us a layer2 view of
our switched ethernet/atm network.  Oh yeah, did I mention that it really
helps to be in a Cisco heterogeneous world?

One of my big griefs with it is I can't get to the data that is stored in
it's database.  Cisco doesn't want you to get to that data except via it's
web interface.
