Website Rankings
Network systems companies have one of the most challenging juggling acts to perform on the Web. Their Websites must put their products into visitors’ business context and deliver unvarnished speeds and feeds for the networking administrators with the final say. They have large, powerful channel relationships to nurture and customers who want to buy products directly. All this and deliver top-notch services and support 24×7. That’s a tall order.
siteIQ evaluated IBM Brocade.com, Cisco.com, Juniper.net, and Nortel.com to identify how effectively these sites meet these challenges. Evaluations were conducted using thesiteIQ Enterprise Software Best Practices Benchmark, which measures 1,215 types of content, features & capabilities, plus 119 metrics that measure usability from the visitor’s point of view.
Our latest report provides an in-depth look at these sites’ most important strengths & challenges – and shows why Cisco.com ranks as the 2010 leader in this segment of the IT Web.
Highlights
- Think the big guy always wins because he is biggest? Even Goliath had a soft spot. Just ask Juniper.net.
- Nortel.com, the sinking ship of the group, still has a thing or two to teach others. The company may be shrinking, but its Website still produces some admirable rankings.
- The networking companies have more in common than they realize. Startlingly similar strengths and weaknesses make for an interesting horse race.
This comprehensive report includes rankings and detailed scoring profiles for each Website in the study.
