Cisco ISE Express 

– Launch Guide  

 

Cisco ISE Express is new licensing available as of May 2015 that offers the same 
dynamic Guest features of the market-leading Cisco ISE in an entry-level bundle, 
priced aggressively at 70-80% less than the competition. 

Enterprise Guest for Less 

Guest access has becomes an essential 

– almost required – service for practically every business, and, as 

technology has advanced, their guests expect easy access and a fast connection. Often times, such services 

present a pricey proposition to many smaller organizations and cost-conscious institutions. In response to this, the 

Cisco ISE team created ISE Express, a comprehensive bundle that offers Enterprise-level guest services 

– 

including hotspot, sponsored and self-registration portals 

– and RADIUS/AAA for access control for 150 endpoints 

at an aggressive, entry-level price. 

The bundle includes Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Base licensing for 150 endpoints, an ISE virtual machine, 

unlimited access to the ISE Portal Builder, a web-based portal customization tool, and a 

This bundle offers an appealing entry point for customers to deploy Cisco ISE in a network with the opportunity to 

not only purchase additional guest licenses (up to 5,000 total) but also further expand ISE services at a later date 

– 

e.g., add licensing for bring your own device (BYOD) or advanced policy use cases. 

Cisco ISE includes native design capabilities that allow you to quickly design a portal by adding images (e.g., logos 

and banners) and selecting a color theme to match a corporate brand. Included with ISE Express is unlimited use 

of the ISE Portal Builder, a web-based tool that allows users to create highly customized portals in 17 different 

languages with a suite of 10 designer templates that are easily customizable and easily exportable to Cisco ISE. 

Cisco ISE Express is restricted to a single instance and cannot be run as a distributed solution or in a high-

availability configuration. Nevertheless, it offers an easy introduction to Cisco ISE, which can be sold by non-ATP 

partners, and can scale to support up to 5,000 endpoints on the included VM server. IT administrators will discover 

that deploying and configuring Cisco ISE Express is a simple and streamlined process. The
