In reply to Frank Palumbo.

Frank,

agreed, Digital Transformation is incredibly important. Vendors like Cisco has to peel the onion for us though - what does it mean? The days of perpetual licensing + support + services are long gone given AWS and others' model. Is Cisco just catching up?
Following is the disconnect:

1. Can I download / consume your software online? You don't even provide information on subscription pricing without making a call to Cisco rep. This is not cloud model.
2. Is 100% of functionality of Cisco ONE available as API to enable automation and DevOps practices?

We are a Cisco shop and want to buy Cisco, just don't fool us with big words without any meaning.
