Cisco wants partners to lead with resilient infrastructure services, and the company is pitching @Cisco IQ and Cloud Control as AI-powered tools to help identify risks or outdated gear in customer environments and help these businesses modernize. For partners, it’s a three-step play: uncover the risk, modernize operations, and deploy AI agents that act instead of just alerting, according to Liz Centoni, Cisco’s executive vice president and chief customer experience officer. The new capabilities will automate more tasks and help teams work together faster, according to the tech giant. @GeeNarcisi has the details, including from @jpatel41, Cisco’s president and chief product officer, and partner perspective from Faisal Bhutto, president and CEO of managed service provider (MSP) Alykas, and Lane Irvine, director of strategic alliances for @LongViewSystems: @CiscoPartners #CiscoPS26#
