GIPs lead Cisco’s market penetration into industry verticals through their RTM by integrating Cisco technologies into their operational technology solution platforms.
IHVs specialize in hardware-based solutions. The hardware might be combined with Cisco platforms to provide customers with integrated systems or appliance stack. Typically, this is a meet-in-the-channel model.
ISVs specialize in developing and selling software solutions. The software might be integrated with Cisco platforms to enable more capabilities for customers, or it could be that Cisco features are part of the ISV application modernization and re-architecting roadmap. Some ISVs are on the Cisco GPL, but most meet in the channel.
IT resellers partner with a resale contract agreement with Cisco to resell Cisco technology and services.
SPs specialize in large-scale deployment of communications and technology solutions built on Cisco platforms.
SIs create complex information systems that may include designing or building a customized architecture or application, integrating it with new or existing hardware, packaged and custom software, and communications.
