### Comment:
Fair point, but all mid sized and smaller companies will most likely stick with Cisco. Also, with the increasing data breaches its becoming more and more important for companies to go with a reputable long standing company..

### REPLY:
They don't. Cisco gear is solid, but way overpriced, pain to work with, has stupid support model and to be honest - just not the best option for small to mid sized companies. I work in tech and when we come in and see Cisco in racks - we let their support period expire and replace it with something else.
