Like: License Management Portal

Partners are optimistic about the new License Management Portal included in the new EAs. The online license portal allows customers to view what licenses have been purchased, deployed or are due for renewal.

"If they do it correctly and they really get it to a [Cisco Meraki] level where customers can see exactly what they're inventory is, where Cisco ONE is giving details about all of their devices and showing levels of support, what current licensing is there – those types of things – then it's a great move," said the East Coast partner.
