In the era of remote working and multi-cloud computing, networking is playing a greater role than ever before. As the working culture has evolved, so has the software-defined data center, and software-defined networking (SDN) has emerged at the center of the industry, though it has not completely replaced legacy frameworks.


Our networking offering

Pinnacle’s networking offering allow organisations to assign and manage resources more dynamically, intelligently, and easily—often through increased automation and AI, and improved monitoring.

All of this aims to provide a more agile, flexible, and cost-effectively framework for managing a digital enterprise.

Customisation
is key

Although many networking products and solutions mostly address the same general tasks—centralising complex management and administrative functions and improving manageability—our solution offerings vary and can be customised and recommended based on the requirements. This includes various features that our vendors offer, how network management tools interact with other IT systems, troubleshooting and security capabilities built into products, and, most importantly, understanding the specific needs of the customer.

Choosing the
right solution

Choosing the right networking and connectivity solution offering is critical for business functionality. At Pinnacle we have a team of experts to assist you, and who understand the importance of how various solutions approach networking, including whether a solution uses a standard approach or places a hypervisor over a virtual network.
