Upon acceptance into the program, a Cisco Systems program manager will provide the applicant with a detailed checklist of requirements. Applications that do not provide sufficient information will be returned to applicants. After a complete application is submitted, please allow Cisco 30 business days to review and respond to your company.
Applicants can check the status of their application online.
During this stage, applicants have the opportunity to discuss their product or service and elaborate on the added value of the joint solution. At this time, Cisco will provide a program overview, outline the expectations, and address the next steps to begin planning and development of the product or service integration. This requirement ensures our customers that the joint solution can work in their environment. A Cisco program manager will provide the testing expectations and requirements upon completion of stage 2. Upon completion of the above four stages, partners will be given the ability to use additional co-marketing opportunities such as the program logo, quotes for press announcements, and partner events with Cisco channels and customers.
