Empowering organizations and customers to transform their business through trusted connections: SageNet

The benefits of hosted and managed network services have made the service necessary to remain competitive at the enterprise level. Implementing managed network services will reduce operational, maintenance, service, hardware, software, and infrastructure costs. Managed network services companies free up enterprises to focus on their primary business goals. They do so by combining high-performance network availability with increased speed and flexibility to drive business growth. Furthermore, managed network services provide access to state of the art technologies that companies might not otherwise be able to afford. Managed network services provide enhanced security for the entire voice and data network. Most network services providers include products that protect the enterprise from spam, malware, viruses, intrusions, and inappropriate web content.
