(Nasdaq: GILT), and a leading provider of managed network and data security services announced today its Connect Series of network services. Spacenet's Connect Series is a tiered set of managed services that helps clarify and simplify network operations outsourcing. Spacenet will be showcasing its Connect Series in Booth 512 at NACStech, May 21st through 23rd in Nashville. "Due to the increased specialization and sophistication required to run today's networks, more and more organizations are discovering the benefits of outsourced network operations," said Glenn Katz (News - Alert), Spacenet's President and CEO. "This in turn has attracted a variety of new providers, leaving the customer a confusing array of disparate services, with no clear standard by which to compare apples to apples. That's why we developed the Connect Series. Using our experience with some of the world's largest networks, we identified, developed and refined a suite of offerings packaged according to each customer's internal capabilities, reliability and security requirements, and their budgets." Based on more than three decades' experience in managed services, Spacenet's Connect Series provides four distinct levels of coverage: Spacenet ClassicConnect™, Spacenet ManagedConnect™, Spacenet AssuredConnect™, and Spacenet CompleteConnect™. Spacenet ClassicConnect™ Services are ideal for multi-site organizations that desire a single point of contact, circuit provisioning and day-to-day maintenance, and benefit from the simplicity of a single, verified billing statement. Spacenet ClassicConnect Services include solution design, project anagement, order management, installation support, billing consolidation, helpdesk support and Spacenet's online portal. Spacenet ManagedConnect™ Services are designed for customers who prefer a single point of contact for network rollout, ongoing network management and real-time visibility into network performance. Spacenet ManagedConnect Services include all the services under Spacenet ClassicConnect plus Proactive Monitoring and Management as well as Advanced Network Performance Reporting. Spacenet AssuredConnect™ Services are ideally suited for multi-site networks with pre-existing connectivity in need of a managed VPN solution, including outsourced router management, network security and compliance-related functionality.
