The only reason to buy Avaya would be to buy customers. Way too much product overlap....plus Avaya has more problems than Cisco (financially, culturally, etc). I know alot of ex-Cisco deadwood that ended up at Avaya.
If we did buy avaya, it would be two competing products under the same umbrella. Not sure why we would do it. The end goal is cloud not two on prem collab solutions
Avaya should buy Cisco so we can get rid of Chuck and ELT
Cisco bought Scientific Atlanta for $7 billions, sold it for $7 millions. That was stupidier than stupid.
Flip Video got flipped for $2 millions, Cisco paid $1.8 billions for it initially.
It would be the extremely stupid thing to do.
Aside from it’s a stupid idea! Avaya is carrying a lot of debt both financially and technically. They also have a massive pension fund they can’t afford…. It’ll be Su----e for Cisco to acquire…. So I guess they will then!
there is a plan to sell the webex，no reason to acquire avaya
Ridiculous to bring on more lazy dead wood employees
There would be no reason to.
