ProCloud service portfolio increases IT
organization’s ability to improve business efficiency and deliver
best-in-class user experience
ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), today announced the addition of
cloud-managed switches to its ProCloudSM services portfolio. By
integrating a cloud-based management platform with best-in-class
services, ADTRAN provides businesses with a single pane of glass to
optimize the management of wired and wireless networks. The
enhanced ProCloud service portfolio enables companies of all sizes
to rapidly expand their network to meet changing business
needs.
Corporate networks are under tremendous strain as employee
expectations for an “always on,” work-from-anywhere environment
continues to grow. IT organizations need to easily integrate their
wired and wireless networks in order to provide the level of
service demanded across the organization. As a result, network
performance, cost and scalability are starting to define business
success, whether it is reducing operational costs, maximizing
efficiency through mobility or improving customer satisfaction.
Imagine a network disruption that stops credit card transactions
for a retail customer; a mobile workforce suddenly disconnected
from their systems; or a classroom of students unable to complete
testing due to a wireless interruption. All of these scenarios
underscore the need to monitor network health and react quickly to
changes.
The addition of ADTRAN NetVanta Ethernet switches into the
ProCloud portfolio provides IT departments with a complete view of
both their wired and wireless LANs to ensure a high quality of
experience. The platform provides a holistic, vendor agnostic
visibility that provides real-time and historical information. The
solution also simplifies ongoing administration through customized
reporting and tiered access, and improves security through
centralized configuration and firmware management. In addition to
these management tools, organizations can also leverage ADTRAN’s
technical expertise to further maximize IT resources for their
network.
Another benefit is the flexibility of an elastic,
pay-as-you-grow infrastructure model with the ADTRAN ProCloud
portfolio. The service is the industry’s only solution that
mitigates against a stranded investment. Organizations have the
option of choosing the level of service that meets their needs
today or migrating network management to an internal IT
organization in the future, all while maximizing their NetVanta
switch investment. This provides companies the freedom to optimize
the service to their changing business needs without penalty or
loss of service.
“Businesses today are facing increasingly complex demands on
both their wired and wireless networks. The network management
features we have incorporated into the ADTRAN ProCloud portfolio
reflect our commitment to providing best-in-class user experiences
for our customers,” said Todd Lattanzi, director of product
management, ADTRAN Enterprise Networks Division. “The ADTRAN
ProCloud solution is the only service on the market today that
addresses the challenge of limited IT resources, while also
providing more insight into network health and administration. We
are helping companies transform the way they manage their networks
with a solution that drives greater business value from networks of
any size or complexity.”
The addition of cloud-managed switches within ADTRAN’s ProCloud
service is now available and supports all ADTRAN NetVanta switches,
starting at less than $100 for a year of service.
