Cisco
Application
AI assistant for contact-centre agents and supervisors that produces call and transfer summaries, live transcription, suggested chat replies, topic analytics, automatic CSAT scoring and agent burnout signals.
AgenticOps workspace where teams and AI agents collaborate to investigate, correlate and resolve issues across domains: natural-language querying, multi-step agent workflows, shared real-time visibility, and native Cisco plus third-party tool integration via Cloud Control Studio.
End-to-end AI security product that discovers an organisation's AI assets, red-teams models and applications for vulnerabilities, and enforces runtime guardrails against prompt injection and data leakage.
Agentic support intelligence delivered inside Cisco Support and Professional Services — 'the delivery vehicle for everything Cisco Support and Professional Services knows about your environment, made continuously available before you ask for it' — generally available as SaaS since April 2026 and included with existing support contracts.
AI-native workforce engagement suite for contact centres that forecasts demand and optimises shifts, uses NLP and LLMs to evaluate 100 percent of human and AI agent interactions (AI Quality Management), and runs performance coaching and AI-led onboarding simulations.
Hardware
Pre-validated modular AI infrastructure bundles that combine Cisco UCS servers, NVIDIA GPUs, Nexus 9000 400G/800G switching and management software into single orderable stacks for AI inferencing, training and fine-tuning.
Turnkey on-premises AI appliance that runs real-time speech transcription for Cisco collaboration deployments locally, for customers with data-sovereignty requirements that rule out cloud AI services.
Cloud-managed full-stack AI cluster sold as hardware plus software plus service, packaging Cisco 6000 and N9300 series switches on an 800GbE back-end fabric, UCS servers with NVIDIA H200 GPUs and BlueField DPUs, optional VAST storage and NVIDIA AI Enterprise under the Hyperfabric cloud controller.
Unified programmable networking-silicon architecture for AI, hyperscale, data-centre, service-provider and enterprise routing/switching, spanning five series (G/P/E/K/A) of chip families.
Schneider Electric
Application
Monitors industrial and electrical asset conditions and predicts infrastructure risks, part of the EcoStruxure suite.
Data center management platform building a live digital twin that unifies asset, power, cooling and environmental data for capacity planning and change management.
Cloud-based microgrid energy management software that uses AI algorithms to forecast load, generation and tariffs and to automatically decide when to consume, produce, store or sell on-site energy across distributed energy resources.
Conversational AI copilot embedded inside EcoStruxure Resource Advisor that answers questions over a company's own energy, emissions and ESG data and helps surface reduction and reporting decisions.
Hardware
800VDC power-distribution rack purpose-built to supply and manage power for AI-compute racks at data-center scale.
No counterpart
Cisco sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Schneider Electric yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
AI agent
Autonomous customer-service AI agent that handles inquiries conversationally across voice, SMS, email, chat and messaging apps and escalates to a human agent with context when it cannot resolve.
Schneider Electric sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Cisco yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Platform
A platform for deploying and managing machine-learning applications at the industrial edge, combining the APA platform, the Gateway 101 edge device and vertical-specific analytics applications (for example rod-pump analytics for oil and gas) to run real-time inference next to production assets.
