Replacement for CCP?

[Zachary McGibbon]

Does anyone know if ever Cisco will come out with a replacement for Cisco Configuration Pro?  I'm looking at upgrading my desktop to Windows 8 (on windows 7 now) and I've heard there are issues.  I've always despised the fact that CCP required Internet Explorer, why did Cisco go this route and not make something stable like ASDM?  ASDM is much more stable, and runs on other platforms (and not just windows).

Also, my co-workers and I have been having issues with CCP crashing on us, or hanging, etc.  It's really not very reliable!

Nothing's been announced.

I wouldn't be surprised to see CCP updated for Windows 8 compatibility. I would be (pleasantly) surprised to see it re-architected to not be built on the IE foundation.

ASDM (Java-based), while better, has its issues - every time a Java update comes out I cringe that it will break ASDM. Only happens about 30-40% of the time. :-p
