This partnership with VMware truly enables our mutual customers to move as rapidly as possible when it comes to innovation – technology will never again be an inhibitor.
    Richard Piasentin, Chief Strategy and Chief Marketing Officer, Accedian
    The ultra-modern VMware Telco Cloud Platform and diverse set of 5G ecosystem partners they are collaborating with is exactly the environment CSPs require to capitalize on the opportunities that the velocity and agility enabled by 5G bring. VMware’s zero-touch certification process is a testament to the ease-of-use of VMware Telco Cloud.
    Richard Piasentin, Chief Strategy and Chief Marketing Officer, Accedian
    Network complexity has accelerated beyond the manageability of manual intervention. Automation is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. It’s a journey that takes open integration, standardization, and simplification work to get there. Intent-based assurance understands how the service should behave, and it can understand when the service is having an issue and inform the orchestration layer. This added intelligence will provide customers with the continuous visibility and feedback loop on service quality that they need.
    Dion Joannou, Chief Executive Officer, Accedian
    The exploding number of network elements and connections that require management and maintenance show no sign of abating. Because of this, network managers and operators urgently need to improve manageability and increase scalability even as they try to rein in expenditures. Intent-based assurance adds value to today’s networks immediately.
    Roy Chua, Founder and Principal Analyst, AvidThink
    Ensuring consistent service quality requires more than simply knowing the status of equipment in the network. CSPs need visibility into end-to-end service quality, agility for assurance monitoring at the time of service deployment, and to move beyond simple SLA monitoring to predictive analytics. Our partnership with Accedian, adding Skylight’s intent-based assurance to Cisco’s Crosswork Network Automation portfolio, strengthens our joint efforts in helping CSPs to further elevate customer experience and drive efficiency in operations.
    Kevin Wollenweber, SVP/GM, Cisco Networking – Data Center and Provider Connectivity, Cisco
    Industry-leading mobile operators will be characterized by their ability to control and monitor end user experience across all cloud, infrastructure, and radio environment stacks—true end to end. Accedian's cloud-native, always-on performance monitoring with microsecond accuracy will be the assurance trust model that ensures performance expectations are met, and that user experience is delivered for high-value, low-latency 5G services. Maintaining customer experience through service quality demands proactive insight, rapid resolution of any issues, and efficiency like we’ve never experienced in our industry. This partnership is designed to deliver just that.
    Richard Piasentin, Chief Marketing and Chief Strategy Officer, Accedian
    As the 5G market enters the full deployment phase, live network operations will assume even greater significance. Service assurance will have to transform, linking workflows to monitor, measure, and identify issues from RF, protocol, and up through the application layer. Keysight’s depth of technology in the 5G and network test domain, combined with Accedian, eliminates the operational gap between service provider lab testing functions and live operational networks.
    Scott Bryden, VP and General Manager, Communications Solution Group, Keysight Technologies

    Mohamed Tantawi, managing director, telcos and service providers, META, Cisco
    Our goal has been to further strengthen our leadership position in the market as the first destination for digital business solutions. To do so, we were keen on leveraging our rich partnership ecosystem to proactively act on quality of experience issues and introduce more automation into our daily operations that will drastically enhance our B2B customer experience and provisioning. That requires full visibility and deep, granular insight into the full reality of what’s happening in our networks. Since our B2B customers also require this type of granular visibility, we have collaborated with Cisco and Accedian to meet this need for our business customers by offering them this service through a customer portal.
    Nawaf AL-Gharabally, CTO, Zain Kuwait

    Anthony McLachlan, VP of Sales, Asia Pacific, Accedian
    Healthcare is under significant pressure to modernize its IT systems and network infrastructure. The industry is ripe for change, and 5G can bring about that much-needed transformation. This research highlights the many ways that private 5G networks benefit the healthcare sector as they race to meet the digital needs of those they serve.
    Sergio Bea, Vice President Global Enterprise and Channels, Accedian

    CSP transformation requires a cloud native network that will increase flexibility and efficiency, enabling operators to deploy services into new verticals faster, drive service expansions, offer upgrades, and provide assured classes of service, all of which should drive revenue growth. A cloud-first, automated network should simplify management and operations leading to lower operational costs. To deliver services right first time and assure them in real-time, from a customer perspective, the network also needs detailed quality of experience (QoE) insight.
    adds James Crawshaw, Principal Analyst at Omdia
    Accedian's MSP Advantage will address the new service introduction process by providing additional key investments and consulting expertise that many MSPs and MSSPs are missing which can significantly limit them in terms of launching new services. The majority of programs today reward partners on success, but do very little to help them expand in new markets where revenue potential is high. This is exactly the focus of the new benefits we are offering as part of our Skylight 4X Program updates.
    Kevin Baranowski, Senior Director of Accedian’s Global Enterprise MSP and MSSP Channel Sales.
    In a competitive market and with a competitive solution, it is the ‘extras’ that drive more adoption and a stronger brand. With the updated Skylight 4X Program, we are helping our partners move beyond the technology sale to create new services that drive real value to their clients and differentiate themselves.
    Sergio Bea, Vice President of Global Enterprise and Channels, Accedian

    Companies have invested in tools, but have underinvested in security integration, testing, training, and automation within IT ecosystems for comprehensive cyber resiliency during the last twenty-four months. Instead they have rushed to deploy cloud applications across private, hybrid, multi-operator and multi-cloud infrastructure, leaving their security posture exposed. Accedian and UnderDefense have invested heavily to bring greater speed of reaction, discovery, and threat mitigation to both give control back to CIOs and to provide our clients with a dynamically-adaptive Detection & Response, IR, and Ethical Hacking framework. You can invest in solutions like MDR, a SIEM, or a SOC, but you’re buying technology without context if you don’t address cyber resiliency through a business continuity lens and incorporate network based threat analytics.
    Nazar Tymoshyk, CEO and Founder of UnderDefense
    Cyber resiliency addresses every thread in the tapestry of an organization; it’s a must in today’s business environment, given that a cyber-attacker only needs to find one loose thread to unravel the organization’s business continuity and threaten financial sustainability. C-suites and boards simply cannot maintain financial viability if a nefarious organization owns their security keys, intellectual property, trade secret information, or pricing.
    Michael Rezek, VP Cybersecurity Strategy at Accedian
    With over 30 years of telco experience, including more than a decade with Verizon, John will undoubtedly bring unparalleled insights to Accedian. His role on the board will be crucial as we look to continue our strategic growth and target new markets and customers.
    Patrick Ostiguy, Founder and Executive Chairman of Accedian
    We’re pleased to bring John onto the board of Accedian. His time leading major players in the telecommunications space will be greatly relevant to the future growth of the company.
    Tom Manley, Accedian’s Lead Director and Senior Principal at Bridge Growth Partners
    COVID-19 or not, it would be wise for businesses across industries to fortify their networks so they can work more efficiently in this remote, distributed era. If there’s one thing the current pandemic has taught us, it’s that networks and applications are the backbone of the digital economy. In order for businesses to compete and succeed in an increasingly competitive landscape, it is important for leaders to understand how the pandemic impacts network performance, as well as the causes and effects of poor network performance on their business productivity, IT teams and end-user experience. Based on our research with IT leaders, we’re able to provide data-driven insights to organizations scaling in this new environment.
    Sergio Bea, VP Global Enterprise and Channel Sales, Accedian

    Seth Proctor, CEO and Founder at Tranquil Data
    Skylight provides the critical observability needed to ascertain the application communication transactions and detect advanced, targeted cyber breaches and other evasive attacks that are notably more difficult for organizations to find and prevent. In short, it provides the digital assurance required to empower the smart city infrastructure ecosystem.
    Michael Rezek, Vice President of Cybersecurity Strategy, Accedian
    To enable electrification, autonomous vehicles, and smart infrastructure, we must engineer a scalable solution that is built for our next generation. The infrastructure must be resilient enough to enable jobs and capital, while also providing market sectors, like insurance, a means to balance innovation with risk in a world teeming with new technological opportunities. Observability and trust are paramount to how we integrate those sensors, vehicles and supply chains. That is why this partnership is critical to our future infrastructure. Industrial, utility, and automotive companies will all blend into one ecosystem. Data must be able to pass through them safely and securely while still maintaining all regulatory compliance cross borders. We are honored to be among a few select companies that have the depth and breadth of experience in this interconnected landscape, and Accedian’s Skylight and Savari will give us the visibility to achieve transparency and trust.
