I made a free tool that auto-generates Cisco UC maintenance/health reports — would love this community’s feedback
Long-time lurker here. I do Cisco UC day to day and I kept losing evenings to the same chore: log into every CUCM, CUC, CUBE, Expressway, UCS and ESXi node, check certs, chase EoL/EoS dates, eyeball capacity, then hand-build it all into a Word report.
So I built something to do the grunt work — UC-Reporter. You point it at an estate and it produces one report: a RED/AMBER/GREEN rating, prioritised findings (expired certs, EoL/EoS, known CVEs, capacity), an ISO 27001/20000 compliance view, exported to Word. It's read-only and runs fully offline — nothing leaves your machine.
Full disclosure: I'm the person who built it. I'm not selling anything — it's free during beta and I genuinely just want feedback from people who do this work, because you'll spot the gaps faster than I will.
Sample output below (fake "Contoso" data). Mods — if this breaks any self-promo rule, happy to take it down, just let me know.
If you run Cisco UC and want to try it on a lab or a real estate, comment or DM me. And if you think it's useless or missing something obvious, tell me — that's the feedback I actually need.
