Survey looks for needs, plans of Cisco WAAS, WAN optimization users

NetForecast query attempts to influence direction if products and services

Network World bloggers Peter Sevcik and Rebecca Wetzel, consultants at application performance advisor NetForecast, are surveying WAN optimization users -- including users of Cisco's WAAS appliance -- about their WAN optimization needs, plans, and preferences. NetForecast plans to include the survey results in upcoming App Performance View blogs.

The survey will attempt to give readers the opportunity to influence the direction of future products and services.  The survey can be found here. 

We wonder if Cisco itself will respond to the survey. There's some healthy debate underway on whether Cisco feels WAAS is ready to deploy globally in its own network.

Perhaps Cisco CIO Rebecca Jacoby can better guide WAAS product developers by sharing her own needs and plans and preferences through the survey.
