Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

SASE MQ!!!

We dropped from that as well? Wtf - can someone in SBG explain what happened. R2G2 and his minions RC and PS made such a big deal out of it - and Cluck said it was the fastest growing business in security - wtf happened?

I am tired of this conman’s bs

Cisco sales people have always used any and every gartner magic quadrant that even hinted at Cisco being less than horrible.

it's not just the terrible showing that Cisco has in the magic quadrant, it's the direction of travel.

Even if Cisco will fix its product issues in Security/SASE, the brand is gone. Talk with channel partners and customers - everyone laughs if you want to talk about security from Cisco.

Is Gartner still relevant at this point? I feel like it's just the "who's who among high tech companies". Isn't it just pay to win?

@b2 Cisco almost fell into the niche players quadrant. Not a good look.

SBG is a joke. Another Cisco failure.

Gartner’s 2025 SASE Magic Quadrant

Fortinet jumped into the “leaders” category to join Palo Alto Networks, Netskope and Cato Networks.

Cisco and Versa are not a leader.
Zscaler will probably enter the Leaders position soon.

Dropped? From Visionary 2024 to Challenger 2025? Seems like an improvement?

hahaha i cant stop laughing. cisco is a laughing stock. the competition doesn’t consider them competition. cisco is in competition with itself for sabotaging itself. with such levels of bs we see stink everywhere on the mq.

meanwhile the only stuff that consistently sells are ancient relics like anyconnect and duo

unlike many here, I don't actually think R2G2 is a shoe-in for next ceo

Hypeshield, splunk, firewall, XDR etc - the effing conman made hay with so much fake news got his titles. Asking people to follow him on LinkedIn - this is unbelievable
