When we configure the business, there are usually two kinds of human-machine interaction interfaces: Graphical User Interface(GUI) and Command-Line Interface(CLI). 

Some people like to use the GUI because it's intuitive. But some people like to use the CLI because it's fine-grained. Which one do you prefer to the two interfaces?

Before couple of years, most of network devices were CLI, but coming SDN and cloud to the IT world, almost all the operations are being done by GUI, but let's not forget the power of CLI in troubleshooting and debugging, so I prefer CLI rather than clicking buttons
Thanks for the great discussion post

It depends on the type of device, for the router or switches CLI is the best. but some QoS in firewall is easy to configure in GUI. But troubleshooting is always easy in CLI.
