Cisco Meraki’s architecture delivers out-of-the-box security, scalability, and management to enterprise networks. The feature rich, easy to use cloud based architecture provides customers with 100% cloud managed networking.
It is fall of 2008. I just pulled into the parking garage and found a cherry spot to park my H2 Hummer. I am rushing to get a good seat for our weekly early Monday morning four hour meeting. I know that if I don’t get there soon, all of the good seats will be taken and ruin the start of my week.
What is a good seat you ask? Well, it has nothing to do with the chair or location, all I care about is grabbing one of the eight wired network connections. As I juggle my coffee, laptop, blackberry and briefcase, I open the heavy wood door, I see eight of my co-workers smiling and giving me the big LOSER smile. All eight network ports are taken by even earlier birds.
This is the scenario that played out day after day in Corporate America in 2008. It seems like the dark ages now, as we all have our smart phones and tablets all connected wirelessly and safely to the company network, in a large part due to efforts of the Cisco Meraki team. The advent of wireless devices and networks helped dramatically reshape every work place in the world. We have all come to expect reliable and accessible wireless everywhere we go, from the coffee shop to the airport to the office.
Why Cisco Meraki? They’ve done it before and they will do it again. Cisco Meraki will continue to be a leader in the future. Cisco Meraki’s architecture delivers out-of-the-box security, scalability, and management to enterprise networks.

cloudOnSite is a resource intended to provide the customer or end user with information and support related to cloud services that requires a technician to be dispatched to the site.
The requisition of an onsite technician usually occurs from an escalation process through the remote help desk.
The purpose of cloudHelpDesk is to troubleshoot problems or provide guidance with respect to our services. Help desk support can be provided to customers through various channels such as toll-free numbers, web portal, instant messaging, or email.
Our help desk typically performs several functions thus providing a single point of contact for end-users to receive troubleshooting assistance, get answers to questions, or solve known problems. The help desk generally manages its requests through the use of issue tracking system software which allows the help desk to track and sort user requests with the help of a unique number, and can frequently classify problems by user, computer program, or similar categories.
Based on studies regarding help desks value was derived not only from a reactive response to user issues, but also from the help desk’s unique position of communicating daily with numerous customers or employees. Information gained with respect to such areas as technical problems, user preferences, and satisfaction proved valuable in the planning and development work of other information technology units.
Remote access allows technicians to solve many help desk issues from another work location. Even though there may still be a need for on-site support to effectively collaborate on some issues, remote support provides greater flexibility.
The help desk is structured into different levels to handle different types of questions. For example, a first-level or Tier 1 help desk may be prepared to answer the questions or provide the information commonly found in a FAQ or knowledge base. If the issue cannot be resolved at the first level, it can be forwarded to a second level or Tier 2 with resources to handle more complex issues. A third line or Tier 3 level of support is utilized to deal with software-specific needs, such as updates and bug fixes that directly affect a specific client.
Cloud management entails the utilization of software and technologies designed for operating and monitoring applications, data and services residing in the cloud. The tools utilized help to ensure that cloud computing-based resources are working optimally and properly interacting with users and other services within your company.
Numerous tasks such as performance monitoring (response times, latency, uptime, etc.), security and compliance auditing and management, and initiating and overseeing disaster recovery and contingency plans are all part of the cloud management strategy.
Flexibility and scalability are important components of a company’s cloud management tools especially in today’s age of increasing growth, complexity and variety of private, hybrid, and public cloud based systems and infrastructure already in use.

With cloudWifi you can eliminate the cost and complexity of traditional on-site wireless controllers with multi-site management via the cloud. This results in a nationwide network that any business or customer can access.
A Wi-Fi controller can manage access to hundreds of different Wi-Fi access points, allowing devices to connect to the network as a whole, not just via individual routers. By putting the controller in the cloud, it is removed from the physical network and can hook tens or even hundreds of thousands of individual access points scattered throughout the world onto the same virtual network.
Also known as hosted desktop services, desktop-as-a-service is frequently delivered as a cloud service along with the apps needed for use on the virtual desktop.
As a hosted desktop provider we handle storing, securing and backing up a user’s data, as well as upgrades for the DaaS service and supported applications. cloudDesktop has a multi-tenant architecture and the service is purchased on a subscription basis.
Services are made available to users on demand via the Internet from a cloud computing provider server as opposed to being provided from a company’s own on-premises servers. Cloud server hosting may sometimes be referred to as cluster server hosting or server on-demand hosting since rather than being provided by a single server or virtual server, cloud server hosting services are provided by multiple connected servers that comprise a cloud.
cloud Secure offers a much higher level of data center and virtual system security than most organizations can or will build on their own. Security was initially viewed as one of the biggest obstacles to the widespread adoption of cloud-based deployments for enterprise software solutions. Today however, the combination of advancing technology plus an increasing variety of threats that companies must guard against is rapidly turning the tide.
Projects can be paralyzed when a business loses files or encounters system failures. That is why having a contingency plan is so important. In today’s business environment the need for an affordable, reliable online backup system with the capability of securing critical data is abundantly clear.
