We resell and provide you with a broad set of services and solutions, ranging from Internet access to SD-WAN connectivity to cloud connectivity, secure remote access, and even mobile user optimization and advanced security services.
We understand that some IT teams might need a little extra help and these solution components are explicitly designed to be deployed and managed by the teams themselves. That is where Managed Network Services come in. It helps to have a team of professionals on hand to assist with any of your deployment and ongoing integration needs.
Our Managed Network Services can be applied to the entire corporate SASE SD-WAN, which can be broken down into three main functional blocks. So, if you need help with any aspect of your network, we've got you covered.
SASE Cloud: Security
SD-WAN: Connectivity - virtual 'overlay'
Internet Access lines: Connectivity - physical 'underlay'
Overall, we're all about making things easy for our customers. We want to provide solutions that are simple to deploy and manage, but we also understand that sometimes you might need a little extra help.
Traditionally, organizations relied on their Telco to provide everything from MPLS routers to end-end connectivity to firewall infrastructure as a one-stop shop. In the case of SASE SD-WAN, there are many ways to source the various components. This gives your IT Managers a choice: they can either take the 'Do It Yourself' (DIY) approach, or they can seek external assistance.
Now, a SASE SD-WAN needs your constant attention to ensure continuity and security, as well as to make adjustments as the business evolves. With the DIY approach, your organization has maximum control and autonomy. Company-hired IT, network, and security engineers can design, select, acquire, install, configure, manage, and maintain the new network, signing contracts with multiple technology vendors and ISPs. However, it can be tough for you to find the specialized know-how and build up all the necessary capabilities in-house. Most IT departments don't want to add more to their already long 'to-do' list. Many IT Managers choose to leverage the skills and capabilities of an external, specialized, third party. It's more cost-effective, simpler, and safer.
But what kind of external assistance do you need for SASE SD-WAN? Well, that depends on your corporate needs and preferences. The Managed Network Services are designed to answer these needs. Choosing DIY or Managed Network Services finally comes down to your specific requirements.
