New Clavister Customer in DACH Cites Excellence in High Availability as Driver of Cluster Purchase

Berlin based City-carrier DNS:NET describes experiences with other vendors before finding Clavister’s solutions solved their pain points.

Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, 20 August, 2018. Clavister, a leader in high-performance cybersecurity solutions, has been selected by Berlin based customer DNS:NET, a medium sized city provider of IP and data center services, to provide security products for protecting their infrastructure.

The customer required securing their aggregation and distribution infrastructure with a robust, stateful High Availability (HA) solution. In addition, they were looking for products that were able to act as a main VPN Gateway internally. They also wanted to provide secure site-to-site connections to their growing number of remote offices as well as a gateway for their staff working from remote locations. Lastly, they required a professional and robust 24/7 support.

DNS:NET cited that they had tried other vendors to satisfy these demands and found they were unable to perform to their expectations.

“We had products from a couple of American firewall vendors which started to get a bit dated and could not keep up with our requirements anymore,” says Nicola Nikolic, Network Engineer at DNS:NET.

“A year later we were finally introduced to Clavister. The system was pretty straightforward to set up and actually worked as it was advertised (which seems to be a rarity these days). We had timeouts of several minutes between failover events or even worse, split-brain scenarios, which we unfortunately experienced with other vendors before migrating to Clavister. Back then, this gave me quite a lot of headache. I have to say that we’ve never looked back since we made that decision to switch to Clavister,” he happily announces. DNS:NET also cites the excellent technical support they received as part of their customer satisfaction.

Taken together, the technology and solutions that Clavister offered were a dynamic fit and it is helping DNS:NET manage their business continuity and that of their customers. “To see a customer feel this strongly and positively about their Clavister purchase is terrific, this level of satisfaction is the heart of what we do,” explains Thomas Gross, Clavister Sales Director for DACH.
