Is anyone listening?

What was your first reaction last year when hearing of the Cisco acquisition of OpenDNS? Many comments we have heard include . . . yup . . . “there they go again.” There are always transitions and changes within the business world, many of them positive. We all understand that. But the changes that can occur from these kinds of acquisitions can end up costing you, the customer or the partner, more than you signed up for. As an OpenDNS Umbrella customer, are you getting tired of riding the corporate wave until you eventually see all of the prior benefits to remaining a customer melt away? It usually takes about a year to kick in. We have seen it in other big acquisitions, and there is a consistent pattern of what happens.

Are you willing to stake your business’ success and security on another commercial buyout by a federal contractor?

buyoutWe have all heard about the Websense acquisition–Raytheon bringing Websense into the Raytheon Cyber Products fold. It is big news for a defense contractor like Raytheon to make such an acquisition in the commercial market. Many times though, this strategy of a government contractor getting into the commercial business world backfires. For current Websense customers, this risk would hurt you the most.

As a Websense customer, are you prepared to take this risk? Are you concerned that your business may not fit into the Goliath corporate mentality, or about the potential for government-level new pricing or contractual terms? These changes may happen faster than you think, or they may drag on forever with you never knowing what will come up or when.
