Learning
Enabling end-user success through training and education.
Consultants
Consultants provides business and technology consulting capabilities well before the systems integration phase.
Digital solutions integrators
DSIs are niche consulting companies with specialized focus on workflows for industries/critical business processes. They specialize in making digital business transformation a reality. They help integrate digital capabilities across all business operations and are experts at driving those conversations with customers in new buying centers and line-of-business.
Global industry partners
GIPs lead Cisco’s market penetration into industry verticals through their RTM by integrating Cisco technologies into their operational technology solution platforms.
Independent hardware vendors
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.
Independent software vendors
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
IT resellers partner with a resale contract agreement with Cisco to resell Cisco technology and services.
Service providers
SPs specialize in large-scale deployment of communications and technology solutions built on Cisco platforms.
Systems integrators
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.
