Brad,
All is not well in the cisco sales area.. I had a sales qoute from cisco
that had a pix box for 20 users and I said why not just use the fire wall
software ??
Answer *not secure enough *
My Cisco Inside Channel Account Manager does not return calls emails,
etc..
His boss told me that "Cisco does not care about small biz " " thats the
3com market"
When I said to him that I wanted to focus on very small biz as the
mainsteam market seems to neglect them . he said *yes we do neglect them
.*
* Thats not where the money is *
This statement infuriated me and I reminded him that small biz is the life
blood of the American economy and still 40 % of the biz in this country
how the heck can you ignore it.
Specially considering the company I was working for only had 100 + workers
He had no answer and kept mumbling about enterprise customers.
If I had the time I would take this up with cisco because it is pathetic.
Everytime I hear John Chambers now I want to puke , as the setup around
here is woeful.
At least I can rely on TAC
But right now I have a slab of work and I just buy stuff outside th cisco
channel and it's cheaper anyhow
So the Sales side is pretty sick .
So the only nice part about the inside sales dudes is they give you a
chnace to make some nice labor heh
