3 Cisco User Connect Licensing
WHAT HOW WHEN Available as products in Unified Communications System Release 8.0 become available Note: Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) will offer UCL beginning with UCM 7.1.5 Method of purchasing a la carte (individual products) by licensing per user Most Unified Communications products Prices change to include software and licensing per user: IP telephony, mobility, conferencing, presence, clients and messaging Customers can migrate from basic DLU to User Connect Licensing Combine User Connect Licensing with Unified Workspace Licensing in the same cluster Count number of users and public space / analog devices WHAT is User Connect Licensing? Cisco is making a shift to license products and applications by user when ordered individually. There will be no need to quote server software, DLUs, ports, options, etc. All will convert to a single User Connect License. It will be available for most Cisco Unified Communications products and we’ll walk through which products will not shift to this new method. This change will result in licensing price changes for IP telephony, mobility, conferencing, presence, clients and messaging because the software will be included and won’t need to be ordered separately. Customers can migrate from basic DLU to UCL at a very small price User Connect Licensing can be combined with CUWL and the mixed cluster restriction disappears. Customers can now have both Unified Communications products that have been ordered individually mixed with Cisco Unified Workspace Licensing – all in the same cluster. HOW will User Connect Licensing work? Simply count the number of users and also the number of public space or analog devices This will begin….. The earliest date User Connect Licensing will be available will be February 16, 2010 with Cisco Unified Communications Manager All other products in the Cisco Unified Communications System Release 8.0 will have User Connect Licensing upon product ship date. So you will experience a 3-month phase roll out. It will also be available for products in the Cisco Unified Communications System Release 3

4 Products Not Available for User Connect Licensing
Not moving to user-based license: Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise Cisco Unified Customer Voice Portal Cisco Unified IP IVR Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Express products – Unified Communications Manager Express, Cisco Unity Express, etc. (Cisco Unified Contact Center Express already follows a user-based licensing model)

5 Partner Benefits Improves ease of doing business with Cisco
Easier to order the customer solution - no need to quote server software, DLUs, ports, options Reduces operational costs Easier implementation, management and configuration of licenses Increases opportunities Easier to reach and talk with new decision makers

6 Customer Benefits Flexible Simple Increased Productivity
Offer the right applications to the right users to maximize value Flexible Easier to acquire and add applications as business need dictates Ensures consistent pricing across the portfolio Simple Increased Productivity Less time to track and manage licenses Flexible – offer the right applications to the right users to maximize investment. Customer feels like they will be able to use the applications they buy for their users. Increased productivity – takes away the time to understand product licensing making it easier and faster to track and manage licensing.

7 Things to Know Cisco Unified Communications System Release 8.0 will only be available with User Connect Licensing Both a la carte and subscription (UCSS) upgrades are supported in User Connect Licensing A la carte upgrades are now based on the User Connect Licenses the customer owns Mostly, Unified Communications Software Subscription will be much more economical way for customer to plan and budget for upgrades Previously, upgrades to several applications including Cisco Unified Communications Manager were based only on server licensing.

8 License Enforcement Leverages the existing (pre-8.0) license enforcement mechanisms You order User Connect Licenses. We ship and enforce DLUs. Select those most likely used in first 12 months after deployment Future - products will become “user-aware.” At that point, additional enforcement will happen. If you fail to comply with the rules today, the customer may be impacted in the future.

9 Pricing for Specific Applications

16 Migrations to User Connect Licensing
16

17 Case 1 - Migrating From DLU to UCL + CUWL
Scenario: Customer migrating from Unified Communications Manager to UCL + CUWL STD cluster. No current UCSS. Migration Path: Order appropriate migration part numbers, mixing CUWL and UCL as desired, and mandatory UCSS/ESW on all users. May take advantage of promo pricing in this case for UCL users. Migration Path Order: - 250 User Connect License Migration part numbers (promo price) - 250 CUWL STD Migration part numbers 50 Public Space/Analog Migration part numbers UCSS on all users UCM 8.0 UCM 7.1(4) or earlier - 250 User Connect Licenses - 250 CUWL STD Licenses - 50 Public Space, Analog Devices (550 total users) - 500 IP Phones - 50 Public Space, Analog devices (550 total users) 17

18 Case 2 – Migrate From Multiple CUWL + DLU clusters TO Single CUWL + UCL Cluster
Order: - New software version via Product Upgrade Tool (PUT) CUWL on UCM 7.1(4) AND CUWL + UCL on UCM 8.0 Order: User Connect Licensing Migration part numbers, OR CUWL Migration SKU’s as desired Public Space, Analog Migration part number UCSS on all part number 500 CUWL Licenses 500 User Connect Licenses - 50 Public Space, Analog Devices (1050 total users) DLU on UCM 6.x - 500 CUWL Users (CUWL cluster) 500 IP Phones with DLU’s (DLU cluster) - 50 Public Space, Analog devices (1050 total users) 18

19 Case 3 – Customers with existing UCSS
Order software copies via Product Upgrade Tool (PUT) UCSS was already user based Customers upgrade to UCL based on UCSS Upgrade Path UCM 8.0 UCM 7.1(4) or earlier 500 IP Phones, 2000 DLU (500 users) 500 User Connect Licenses Order upgrade via PUT

20 Case 4 – Customers without UCSS, option 1
Buy user-based upgrade Pay full upgrade price for each user, typically 50% of new user cost Now migrated to UCL on the new version Migration Path UCM 8.0 UCM 7.1(4) or earlier Order 500 User Connect License Migration part number 500 IP Phones, 2000 DLU (500 users) 500 User Connect Licenses

21 Case 4 – Customers without UCSS, option 2
Buy discounted user based upgrade (with 3 & 3 Upgrade offer) Required to purchase 3 year UCSS contract at the same time Now migrated to UCL on the new version ALWAYS cheaper than the full priced upgrade, plus provides future version upgrades Migration Path UCM 8.0 UCM 7.1(4) or earlier Order 500 User Connect License Migration discounted part number + UCSS 500 IP Phones, 2000 DLU (500 users) 500 User Connect Licenses

22 3 & 3 Upgrade Offer What: Upgrade to 8.0 using a new bundled package offer of $3/user* for license, and 3 year Unified Communications Software Subscription** (UCSS) at standard pricing “3 & 3 Upgrade” offer is available for these select Cisco Unified Communications 8.0 products: - Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Business Edition - Cisco Unity Connection and Cisco Unity to Cisco Unity Connection 8.0 (“3 & 3 Upgrade” offer does not apply to Cisco Unity 8.0) - Cisco Unified Presence - Cisco Emergency Responder When: Available as Unified Communications 8.0 products ship Offer ends when each individual 8.0 product above reaches End of Sale *Exception: $6 per user for Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition migration pricing where user licensing includes Unity Connection ** Cisco Unified Communications Essential Operate Service (ESW) is required with UCSS 22

23 3 & 3 Upgrade Offer (cont’d)
How to position the offer: - Always lead with CUWL migration - CUWL includes version upgrade at no additional charge - CUWL migration can be mixed with 3 & 3 Upgrade and User Connect License - Every upgrade discussion is an opportunity to move any or all of the customer’s users to CUWL - If customers will not migrate to CUWL, then “3 & 3 Upgrade” should be the second option. Customers always have the option to migrate to CUWL at a later time. - Third option is to purchase upgrade software (if offered) priced at ~50% of User Connect Licenses 23

24 “3 & 3 Upgrade” vs. User Connect License Upgrade Value Comparison
$10,200 in savings! PLUS you receive 3 years of UCSS, which provides you access to major software upgrades as they become available “3 & 3 Upgrade” is clearly the cost-effective method of upgrading to 8.0 UCSS provides even greater value if upgrading more than once during a 3 year period. Cost savings result in $27,500! UCL Pricing for 100 Users* UC Product UCL 8.0 Upgrade Price Cisco UCM $105/user Cisco Unified Presence $30/user Cisco Unity to Unity Connection 8.0 $38/user Total Cost $17,300 3 & 3 Upgrade Offer for 100 Users* UC Product $3 / User Upgrade Offer Price 3 year UCSS Price Cisco UCM $3/user $26/user Cisco Unified Presence $16/user Cisco Unity to Unity Connection 8.0 $20/user $900 + $6200 Total Cost $7,100 3 and 3 Migration” requires a minimum 3 year term UCSS.  Exceptions are allowed for government entities which by law cannot commit services beyond one year (1 year UCSS contracts allowed) *This assumes the customer already has Cisco Unified Communications Essential Operate Service (ESW) UCM – Unified Communications Manager 24

25 User Connect Licensing and Video
25

26 Changes to Video Licensing
‘Video only’ deployments of Unified Communications Manager will remain Increasingly video deployments will co-exist with customers’ production voice deployments Video endpoints will be licensed as users Several license types for video only and mixed voice/video clusters Proliferation of video in customer UC deployments demands support for and interoperability among multiple types of video endpoints. 26

27 Video User Connect Licensing
Video Desktop User list price: $295/user For any video device on user’s desktop.* Video Telepresence Single Screen User list price: $650/user For a single screen conference room unit.* Video Telepresence Multi-Screen User list price: $1,100/user For a multi-screen conference room unit.* Telepresence Only Starter Bundle list price $14,750 Includes 2 Cisco Unified Communications Manager nodes, 50 Video Desktop Users. Video Desktop User list price: $295/user This is license type for any video device (NOT softclient like CUVA, CUPC) which sits on user’s desktop. Pedestal model is prime example. Added in lieu of Basic or Enhanced IP User License. Video Telepresence Single Screen User list price: $650/user This is license type for a single screen conference room unit. Video Telepresence Multi-Screen User list price: $1,100/user This is license type for a multi-screen conference room unit. Telepresence Only Starter Bundle list price $14,750 Includes 2 Cisco Unified Communications Manager nodes, 50 Video Desktop Users. Use this for Telepresence only deployments. Add appropriate Telepresence User licenses from above list. * Added in lieu of Basic or Enhanced IP User License. 27

Interconnect those PBXs to the other businesses (Cisco IME) Interconnect those PBXs to Social Networking & Web Apps (Web2.0 & ECP) Get as many video and audio ports in CUWL Professional Edition. Consistent pricing across applications for Essential Operate Service Cisco Intercompany Media Engine All existing CUWL customers get access to this capability at no additional charge Provides a revolutionary way for organizations to extend their Cisco Unified Communications experience to their business partners or customers, delivering feature-rich interoperability via boundaryless collaboration as well as cost savings.

30 Price Changes Net $50 increase over 3 years gives you:
CUWL Edition Price Change Professional Edition Increase from $425 to $500 per user Professional Edition – Unified Communications Software Subscription Decrease from $125 to $100 for 3-year term Standard, Business, Entry No change Net $50 increase over 3 years gives you: More than twice as much audio and video conferencing More web conferencing with a choice A. Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web conferencing, or B. Cisco WebEx Web Conferencing for 3-years

31 WebEx Node for MCS WebEx with Unified MeetingPlace Option
Performance Bandwidth Policy, Security Internal/VPN External Cisco WebEx Collaboration Cloud What is it The WebEx Node for MCS is a software component that is deployed on-premises with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8.0. The WebEx Node for MCS extends the Cisco WebEx Collaboration Cloud into an organization's onsite network infrastructure. The option is always deployed with Unified MeetingPlace 8.0 and a WebEx Meetings Service Contract How it works Internal web conferencing traffic is routed to the WebEx Node for MCS and remains in-house, rather than having every connection going to the WebEx Collaboration Cloud. Internal meeting participants automatically connect to the local WebEx Node for MCS, which generates a single data stream to the WebEx Collaboration Cloud. External attendees connect directly to the WebEx Collaboration Cloud. Benefits: This helps 1) reduce the load traversing the proxy server/firewall infrastructure to reduce WAN bandwidth and 2)reduces web conferencing traffic latency because internal web traffic only travels back and forth to/from the WebEx Node. This delivers a better user experience by improving performance. Policy/Security - The WebEx Node for MCS also enables internal-only meetings (on a meeting by meeting basis) where web conferencing traffic and recordings stay on-premises. Meeting initiation still requires a connection to the cloud. This capability complements the robust security capabilities of WebEx meetings. Cost savings – Save money by 1) reducing WAN bandwidth needs, 2) bringing audio conferencing on-premises (Unified MeetingPlace) and 3) lowering WebEx services fees as WebEx Meeting port pricing is now structured so internal ports are less expensive than external ports How do I buy it: CUWL - The WebEx Node for MCS software is included in CUWL Professional. In fact, the only way you can get WebEx as part of CUWL is to deploy WebEx Meetings with Unified MeetingPlace and the WebEx Node for MCS. A la carte – You can buy the WebEx Node for MCS software as an option ($25,000) if you have Unified MeetingPlace 8.0 and a WebEx Service contract. Extra architectural point that probably does not need to be shared with Partners on Feb 2 The WebEx Node for MCS can also automatically manage meeting capacity. If a single WebEx Node for MCS reaches its capacity limit, then  it will automatically overflow additional meeting participants to other WebEx Nodes or to the WebEx Collaboration Cloud. WebEx Node for MCS WAN MeetingPlace Audio/Video 31

32 Benefits More flexible than ever!
Combine User Connect Licensing with Unified Workspace Licensing No separate cluster when ordering Unified Workspace Licensing User Connect License migration options are available 32

33 Things to Know Must purchase Cisco WebEx Node for MCS to get Cisco WebEx Meeting Center Can order more Cisco WebEx internal and external ports Must purchase Unified Communications Software Subscription (UCSS) for all users when mixing CUWL+ User Connect Licensing Unlimited ports - audio conferencing now entirely user based Messaging failover now included in UCL. No longer an extra “option”.
