Pros

AppD has a very well structured onboarding process. You can expect to get stuck into the new tech right from your very first day. The team is supportive and there is no shortage of collateral to get you up and running.

Cons

Not really a con, but you will need to access and navigate a mass of tools from both Cisco and AppD
