Why cloud-managed networking?
Cloud-managed networking refers to the ability to manage and monitor your network infrastructure remotely through a user interface. By eliminating the need to purchase, configure and maintain on-premise controllers and appliances, your customers can save money and time which allows them to focus on their core business instead. Explore below why cloud-managed networking is critical for your customers’ success, and how Kaiwoo can help you reach your goals.
Flexibility at its best
Cloud-based networking is ideal for growing businesses, as it enables customers to easily scale up their network within minutes and manage everything under a single pane of glass. Software updates are conveniently installed “over-the-air” allowing new features and bug fixes to be deployed automatically across all customers networks. By doing this, the hardware vendor can easily take care of the general maintenance of the hardware, future-proofing customers’ investment and allowing them to focus on other aspects of their business – a recipe for success.
Ease of setup and management
Cloud-managed networking equipment is designed to be a “plug & play” solution. Networking equipment can now be deployed without the need to manually adjust any parameter beforehand. Anyone can then easily manage, monitor and troubleshoot through a simple user interface.
