 Oh.  Script kiddies with incompetent adult supervision.


CL: all in good fun so far, but I am starting to run into some real issues.
I work for one of Cisco's largest partners, and my CCO account gives me
access to a number of partner specific areas that I use regularly. I was
working on something for a client, was sent a link by Cisco pre-sales (
partner only information link ) and I have been unable to get in. Let's
see - fifteen email messages later we fixed it try - grrr no you
didn't ... 
try it now ,,, still doesn't work and I am giving up. What's more
irritating is that every time I respond to their automated e-mail, I get a
reply that says write your comments between the lines ( special
formatting ) Thing is, on the original e-mail, these formatting lines do not
exist.

CL: I can live with the marketing crap. I can live with the colors. I can't
live with the loss of certain functionality.

CL: I will say that if you dig around, there can be a lot more and a lot
better information to be found.

CL: I can also say with assurance that there are some tools, like the
configurator, which still need a LOT of work.

It's awful. Unless I make an extremely tiny font, I have to scroll to 
get to the search function, which I would swear now has a smaller 
entry field. There's no obvious place to link directly to a search 
page.

Navigation other than search is also rather strange.

So, I filled out the feedback form about the page.  What happened 
when I hit submit?

Internal server error.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Well, a few work arounds.  You can just go straight to the documentation CD

(right now the site seems down for me, ugh, so I cannot verify 100%, the
links are pretty close, and if you navigate hard enough it really just links
back to the universal cd anyway)

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/

OR just go to the bottom right and click on GO TO THE OLD SITE.  And
presto you get your old site back.  Ironically it usually takes a very long
time to load the old site

As for general navigation, if you guys want to find docs, I think it was
under support, hardware (for stuff like the pix) and software for IOS, then
you can drill down and one of them eventually brings you back to the
universal cd.  ;)

While I hate it too, but come on guys we are powerful Cisco Study
candidates, we should be able to solve anything that comes up quickly!  If
we can crunch Cisco problems we can navigate this new nasty site as
well!  :)

I'm with you, Mr. Sneed.  I've even had an email conversation with
someone at Cisco where I detailed why I hate their new site.  They have
good intentions and I think once they're completely finished it will be
nice, but at the moment it's hard to navigate.  I suggested that they
allow us to create our own stylized home pages and she said they are
already working on that.

I would love to have that!  My home page would consist of:

Software Center
TAC
Pricing Tool
Service Contract Center
Technical Docs

And that's about it.  I'd love to get rid of all the junk they use to
clutter up the main page.

RE: hate cisco's new site? [7:56236]

2002-10-24 Thread Paul Forbes
You are by no means the only one. I'm composing a letter to our SE
detailing the many ways in which the new site hinders both
troubleshooting and fact-finding. Now, it appears to be a lot more
marketing and significantly less technical.

For example, the way they have classified everything into software,
hardware and technology is at best obtuse. How many people trying to
troubleshoot/optimize their infrastructure want to wander around until
they find the appropriate tech note? Wouldn't it be simpler and easier
to have it the way it used to be, by product (e.g. CallManager) or by
technology (e.g. EIGRP)?

If enough of us complain, perhaps they'll change it back.

I also think a SlashApp-like RSS feed from CCO would be pretty nice...

Cheers all.
