Bangalore, Oct 16
While continuing to increase focus on the advanced
technologies arena, Cisco India plans to unveil new products and solutions in
the areas of unified communications, security, wireless and data center space.
Parag Arora, Regional Manager-Channels, Cisco India believe that globally as
well as in India, advanced technologies like unified communications and wireless
are the way forward and we are working to create effective solutions for our
customers in this space. He said, "Opportunities for growth are huge across
the India market, but we believe that BFSI, government and defense promise rapid
growth. Additionally, IT and ITeS and telecom would give us a lot of traction.
We also see a high momentum in the retail, healthcare and education
verticals."
Sharing his thoughts on the choice of partners for selling
advanced technology solutions, Arora said, "We have divided our partners
according to different market segments like enterprise, corporate and mid-market
so that they can effectively tap into them. We provide our partners with
training pre- as well as post sales and demo equipments. We also plan to set-up
four to five centers of excellence (CoE) across the country in order to educate
customers and channel partners about various technologies in and around unified
communication and security. As of now, one such center is up and running while
the others are in the development stage."
