Commands used in the older versions are different than what is out there. Possibly add more current software/hardware to the simulators and it would be worth the cost. I have utilized Boson Netsim since version 8. I can tell you it's WELL WORTH THE MONEY, so much so that I upgrade each time a new version is released. Yes you an utilize free tools such as GNS3 and Packet Tracer (I use those two very unique robust programs to help friends study for their exams and to build test networks) however, Boson is not just a simulator, it is an academy all in one. Each lab contained in the simulator contains instructions, explanations and training in an organized fashion. If you were to utilize only this simulator and completed each lab step by step, you would be around 85% ready to take your Cisco Exams (you still have to do the subnetting, know your basic OSI information, work with the hardware etc. If you are a newbie, this is definitely for you, if your like me and Networking is only a fraction of your IT responsibilities and you need a way to keep up to date on skills, this is for you.Īside from the extremely detailed labs, the interface is hands down the best I've utilized for training. The support staff is also very friendly and responsive. If by chance you find anything from a glitch to a typo, they have either already fixed it and you simply need to update your system OR they will fix it within a few days.
