Has anyone seen ACE installations scale to hundreds of customers? You are right, I haven't used the ACE, just the CSM. It's always easier to trust in something's performance after you've seen it :) > I'm not in sales, so I don't have to worry about cost ;-), but I do know > there was, and still may be, a special on the appliance (not the module) > where you get some large percentage off (35% or 50% or something) in > addition to your normal Cisco discount.

The pricing model of $0 plus the appropriate license is an interesting model - I was thinking it would be license costs on top of the typical line-card costs. That might be more workable in our model, though it sounds like migrating configurations from CSM to ACE is non-trivial. I'll have to do a bit of research from that angle.
