Survey: Command line or GUI?

[DavidParker]

Just wondering what people use mostly to retrieve information, see results, etc.

Command line?
GUI (Admin or Java Console)?

Is GUI really a crutch for those who can't handle command line?

[Stumpr2]

I use both.
I use the GUI for a one time need.
I use CLI for repeatable actions.

[Dennis_Strom]

I use both fairly consistenly. Admin Console and cli.
Some stuff is easier in GUI some stuff easier cli. Just depends.

Hmm, forgot to answer my own Survey:

Admin Console mostly (activity monitor, device monitor, reports section, etc).
Cli for 'advanced' things (expiring images, etc)

Points for answers so far =)

I use the GUI Admin console for most tasks.

But for Reports the Java GUI is about 4 times faster and will display more information.

I do use the command line for those tasks not available in the GUI.

Both GUI's have tasks that are easier in one than the other so I pick the GUI based on the task to be preformed.

Thanks for the input, and welcome to the forums James!
Make that 'welcome back', I guess ...
