According to a recent InformationWeek article, Nortel Intensifies Business Unit Breakup, that is the question Nortel executives are asking about different business units as they navigate through a dark chapter in the company’s history. It will be interesting to see what fate Nortel’s enterprise business holds… In the mean time, customers are also asking themselves the question, “Should I stay or should I go?” If one were to complete the sentence, “Nobody will ever get fired for choosing _________,” it’s probably safe to say they wouldn’t write Nortel. An end-user customer recently told me they would complete the sentence with “Cisco.” It’s amazing how much change the enterprise telephony and contact center market has gone through over the past 10 years…
How would you complete the sentence above? What are your thoughts in terms of safe bets for the future?
Hello,
If you like to choose the relaiblity and long term flexability then you should go for Nortel. Evidence of seeing lot of old switches are still working fine and migrated to the latest. If you are looking for chunky monkey stuff which appeals good is Cisco.
I leave the option always to the customer as they think wise.
