Overview:

Last week, NetApp of Sunnyvale, California and Akorri Networks, Inc., of Littleton, Massachusetts announced a definitive agreement for NetApp to acquire Akorri for an undisclosed dollar amount in an all cash transaction. The deal is expected to close before the end of NetApp’s fourth quarter (April), assuming all parties agree and any regulatory concerns are addressed.

Certainly, these are factoids of immediate interest to Wall Street, competitors, and most industry publications. At Clipper, however, we are more interested in the "story behind the story" as it relates to the user and the work that needs to be done. What does this acquisition mean for the user? What will be better? Are there any downsides to customers and prospects and can they be ameliorated? Read this white paper to learn more about the acquisition of Akorri Networks, Inc. by NetApp.
