Cisco ONE Software Overview

A La Carte Separately priced items

The Old Way: Purchase Each Application/License for Each Device

Perpetual for the Lifetime of the Device

Licensing Tied to Hardware

The New Way — Cisco ONE Software: Buy All Applications/Licenses as a Suite

What is Cisco ONE Software?

• Customer buys all licenses in one package and has freedom to turn on what they need

• Customer buys each application/license separately

• Complex and costly lifecycle management

• Discontent due to additional charges for each application

• No flexibilty in licensing

• No incentive to stay with Cisco partner over time

• Each license applies to one device and is non-transferrable

• Costly to upgrade

• Customer not likely to upgrade frequently — running sub-optimum hardware

• License can be moved to new hardware as it is purchased

• Incentive to upgrade frequently to optimize performance

• License can be purchased to be used forever

• License subscription can be purchased for a finite time

• Enterprise License Agreements allow customer to purchase all licenses for multiple devices in one package and distribute over time
