• "Our collaboration with Cisco allows us to be one of the first cable operators in the United States to offer comprehensive, world-class managed security services to enterprises and our key vertical market's in education, government, and healthcare. Working with Cisco, we've already been able to quickly bring new security services to specific customers in the education vertical, while maximizing previous investment in our robust network." Craig Cowden, Chief Network Officer and SVP, Enterprise Solutions, Bright House Networks.
• "With most emerging technologies, service providers and vendors typically focus first on cost savings opportunities. SDN and NFV are no different. At the same time, there's a reason why the notion that 'you can't save your way to growth' is a well-worn cliché. To this end, Cisco's moves to enable operators to drive additional top-line revenue through deployment of managed services to new markets like the SMB segment are encouraging." Peter Jarich, vice president, Current Analysis
