Feedback
Cisco Confidential 45© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
EMC World Feedback: Partner Conference• Very low-attended. Staffer said that no one came by at
all.• Alliance Team, DC Team should have a discussion if we
will do this again.• Cocktail party/perks were nice, but the actual conference
itself had no value.• Can we bring back the speaking session(s)? We need a
captive audience vs. relying on having partners coming by our table.
• We would like a scheduled partner breakout session.• Where is our “Hello Cisco” campaign – joint social
campaign?
Cisco Confidential 46© 2013-2014 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
EMC World Feedback: Booth and Theatre
• Need larger theater area• Should we move theater to the main aisle side? Should we
move the theater to the front?• Booth location was good, right at the front door.• Pedestals take up a lot of room in the booth.• Can we build up, second floor for meeting room, white-
boarding, etc.• How can we make the video capture a draw to the booth?• UCS User Groups – need to make this for all Tier 1’s? Similar
to Cisco Champions…• Email opt-in dropped, this ensures we need to track people
in different ways – SM, in-person, etc.

EMC World Feedback: Demonstrations
• Demos were busy and well attended. • VCE was trying to insert a staffer and take our attendees to
their booth.

EMC World Feedback: Marcom/MPO’s/Raffles
