Mikrotik has had WinBox for as long as they've been around and there's a lot of inertia around using it, but WebFig and the CLI are the only things I use (though I do have The Dude running through Crossover because it's useful).

Where you run into problems with 'tik gear is the differences that L3HW acceleration introduced into the mix. They didn't do what every other switch vendor does and limit features to what the switch chip supports and hide everything that the CPU can't handle away, so you have multiple ways of approaching most issues which threw me for a look as somebody who had been running JunOS gear in his lab for a while.

Once you get a feel for it then it's pretty straightforward to work with everything, though somebody used to an older generation of NOS like classic IOS (and associated clones) would have an easier time than me.

For reference, here's the config for my CRS317 acting as my "core" switch: https://gist.github.com/snuxoll/d63a155aa2155f53736a99d1cb27...
