Dell also expanded its industry-leading ProSupport to provide users with a single point of contact for unified network support.

"We wanted an additional wireless solution with excellent performance and management capabilities, while still offering extensive range, and Aerohive was the best fit," said Jody Cantello, network administrator, Service King. "We plan to use HiveManager NG to manage our wired and wireless networks, which will greatly simplify management of the environment. HiveManager NG, along with the Dell Networking N2048 switches, will provide PoE capability to the company's 300 Aerohive access points."


"To have a unified wireless platform across all operations and branch offices, and have it just work has undeniably advanced the efficiency and productivity of our employees, as well as streamlined operations for our IT staff," said Will Simons, IT director, Movement Mortgage.

"Our students and teachers get stable wireless access at all times with the Dell and Aerohive solution, which is critical because they're relying on their devices every day in the classroom," said Abdul Sandooya, IT technical team leader, Canadian school district.

"Not only does Aerohive provide a top-notch wireless solution, the support we received as we set up the enterprise network from the bottom-up was invaluable," said Matt Hellens, IT director, Emmet County. "Having control at the network edge and enabling seamless integration with Dell for a unified networking infrastructure were key to the success of implementing wireless operations across the entire county. The flexibility of the solution, from having the management system on premises to controlling how employees and guests connect, as well as providing multiple avenues for enhanced security, gives us confidence that Aerohive will meet our current and future networking requirements across Emmet County."

"We continue to deliver a converged cloud-managed campus networking solution to our customers through our combined offerings with Aerohive," said Jeff Baher, vice president, Dell EMC Networking.
