Hi,
I think the one major difference between Cisco certs and the others you
mention are the others are vendor specific.
Cisco's certs deal with many RFC based technologies (to many to mention)
that are used by almost every Networking Vendor out there.
Although their are definite slants on some Cisco products the overall
understanding, knowledge, and experiences you get from obtaining the Cisco
certifications can be applied to almost any Network.
I bet they won't have as good an interface though!!
