Who the fuck uses merkai besides people who cant figure out the CLI. How much merkai equipment do they even sell?

not a lot they have had like 4 web seminars just giving them away trying to hook people, but they recently dispatched a bunch of grunts and are saying they want to focus more on being a software vendor

They are buying a bunch of IoT and cyber security companies. They seem to be marketing themselves as a software company, more focused on data analytics, security, IoT etc

This is due to the threat of SDN, white boxes etc.

cisco TAC = poo in loo shitters

cisco phones = awful VOIP equipment, comparable to string and tin-cans half the time

cisco routers = NSA-compromised hardware

all of the above = jewish licensing, prepare to pay far out the ass to have more than 12 clients on your network or more than 25 phones

Cisco sucks balls, literally every alternative is better

and their certification programs are rip-offs, too
