 MSP Suite: 3 Productized Services 

Managed Security
OUR cloud service provides robust/managed/monitored firewall and Unified Threat Management (UTM) solutions to protect businesses from unwanted and malicious traffic., with intrusion prevention and detection. This is NOT a ‘box’ on the customers’ site, but a fully monitored network service that Sangoma manages!  And security is a scorching field.  Customers fear attacks/security breaches, so they are desperate for advice/solutions.

Managed Network Access
They fully managed, sophisticated solutions to provide Internet Access (connectivity) to a business.  Especially a fit when the customer has ‘nontrivial’ needs.  E.g., If they have one small office, and any old ISP can serve them, maybe not our fit. But if they have multiple sites in various jurisdictions, not all of which can be done by any single ISP, some might be challenging locations; then we are THE answer. And integrated with managed security & SDWAN.

Managed SD-WAN
Utilize multiple internet connections from various providers, aggregate bandwidth, ensure uptime if one carrier goes down, traffic shaping to prioritize certain types of traffic or users, and leverage affordable broadband connections to create an inexpensive ‘single pipe.’ All are fully managed by us and integrated with Access/Security.
