Microsoft Recognizes Cisco's Impact. Shouldn't You?

Aug, 08, 2016 Hi-network.com

Cisco was front and center at Microsoft's worldwide partner conference in Toronto recently. We had prime real estate at the entrance to the exhibit hall, engaging the 16,000 people in attendance to share howCisco is helping Microsoft partners deliver value.

Not only did we win two awards and rocked out to Gwen Stefani, but we had a blast, and our partners did too!  What really stood out for us was how incredibly exciting it was to engage with many non-traditional partners -from Solution Integrators to ISVs. They were so interested in wanting to talk to us about how Cisco can help them deliver better customer outcomes.

Recognition by Partners, for Partners

Probably one of our most satisfying wins came on Tuesday at WPC when the International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners (IAMCP) selected Cisco and NetApp together for our work with Microsoft partners in Asia.
