Another consideration is what happens if you run out of budget for license
renewals for any reason.
Unlike equipment you own with a perpetual license, the cloud-based networking
gear will stop functioning unless you feed it licensing money on regular
intervals as evidenced by the email
Not to quibble, but Smartnet, etc really no different here. Everyone’s “a
software company!” now, which has lifted the floodgates on licensing for all
the major players- lots of time-limited examples of recurring revenue in the
form of licensing for cloud and not. Is getting to the point where
