Cisco Any Device vision drives competitiveness

By Networks Asia Editors | Oct 17, 2011

As the traditional corporate network perimeter continues to dissolve and the enterprise becomes more of a borderless environment, smartphones, tablets, other endpoint devices, and web applications are irreversibly changing the way people work and play online.

This trend is clearly evident at Cisco Systems Inc. where its 70,000+ employees and 30,000+ global contractors, consultants, and business partners decidedly want more choice in the devices they use to work—and where they use those devices to access corporate networks, systems, applications, data, and online services.

Such user-driven demand has led Cisco to embark on a long-term vision called Any Device. The goal is to allow greater choice in devices while maintaining a common, predictable user experience that maintains or enhances global organizational competitiveness and security.

The primary business motivations behind Cisco’s Any Device vision include employee job satisfaction and productivity, an evolving workforce and capital cost savings.
