A10 Networks Announces New Cisco ACE Trade-in Program
Receive up to $24,000 Plus Installation and Migration Services When Switching to AX Series Application Delivery Controllers
SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A10 Networks(TM), the technology leader in Application Networking, today announced a new upgrade program for Cisco's ACE server load balancer models. According to recent articles in Barron's (Link: http://blogs.barrons.com/techtraderdaily/2012/09/14/ffiv-to-benefit-as-cisco-scales-down-ace-says-jmp/) and Computer Reseller News (Link: http://www.crn.com/news/networking/240007425/cisco-ceasing-development-of-load-balancer-products.htm), Cisco is scaling down ACE and shifting resources to different projects. Effective immediately, customers can upgrade existing Cisco ACE models to A10's AX Series Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) and receive up to $24,000 plus installation and migration services with a qualified trade in.
The ACE trade-in program delivers the following benefits:
-- Upgrade to a feature rich AX platform built on a highly scalable, new
generation architecture
-- A10's unwavering commitment to the ADC market with a clear vision,
focused platform development and comprehensive roadmap
-- Consolidation of existing ACE installations at extremely high ratios;
e.g. 15:1 or more
-- No licensing for hardware appliances, ensuring all features are readily
available with no hidden fees or escalated ADC costs
-- Easy transition of deployments reliant on Cisco ACE Virtual Contexts to
A10's AX Series multi-tenancy solutions with Application Delivery
Partitions (ADPs) or SoftAX
-- Performance to meet any requirement or peak load in compact and energy
efficient 1U or 2U appliances
-- Industry-standard Command Line Interface (CLI) or advanced GUI for
ease-of-use and quick staff ramp-up time, reducing retraining costs
-- Better value alternative to F5's (FFIV) BIG-IP family, which can add
hefty integration and licensing costs onto the already high price tag of
F5 products
As a part of the AX Series' advanced feature set, this trade-in program allows Cisco customers to take advantage of the most flexible and wide range of mature IPv6 and Virtualization offerings in any ADC today. A recent independent Network World Clear Choice Test (Link: https://www.a10networks.com/news/industry-coverage-backups/20120213-Network_World-Clear_Choice_Test.pdf) awarded the AX Series the highest points possible for IPv6 features, ease of installation and manageability. This independently verified A10's technology leadership over F5 BIG-IP, Cisco ACE and others.
"Our award winning AX Series platforms have rapidly become the ADC of choice for organizations of all sizes as enterprise customers look for a feature rich and highly scalable solution to solve complex application challenges," said Lee Chen, Founder and CEO of A10 Networks. "With our ACE trade-in program, we are making it both easy and cost effective for customers to migrate to a solution that will increase performance and flexibility for business services while reducing total cost of ownership."
A10 has successfully replaced and upgraded many vendors' solutions, and offers strong value to customers needing an alternative when their incumbent vendor leaves the market, for example with Juniper's DX load balancers. With five years of Cisco ACE replacement experience, world-wide professional services, best in class support and the interactive forums of the Virtual Application Delivery Community (http://www.virtualadc.com), A10 can rapidly help organizations overcome issues caused by lack of features, support or performance.
