Ikusi and Cisco meet to strengthen their strategic plan and boost the competitiveness of Spanish companies through managed services

Alcobendas, February 16, 2024.

This morning, executives from Ikusi and its strategic partner, Cisco, met at Cisco’s offices in Alcobendas (Madrid). The meeting was between Javier Aguilera, Managing Director of Ikusi Spain, and José Van Dijk, Vice President of Cisco EMEA Partner Sales & Routes to Market, and was aimed at further consolidating the fruitful collaboration between the two companies.

The meeting strengthened Ikusi’s commitment to offer Spanish companies the full potential of Cisco technology in the form of managed services and to promote the companies’ joint objective to boost digitalization in Spain, through the provision of providing leading-edge services.

Both Javier Aguilera and José Van Dijk were satisfied with the topics discussed during the meeting. Javier Aguilera said that “At Ikusi we are excited about the opportunity to strengthen our alliance with Cisco, a key partner in our aim to offer advanced technology services. Through this alliance we wish to demonstrate our firm commitment to leveraging Cisco’s technologies to the maximum to offer our customers high quality managed services.”

The potential of Ikusi managed services using Cisco technology

The aim of Ikusi managed services is to enable companies to dedicate their available resources to their core business activity and benefit from managed services provided by specialized companies for tasks that do not form part of their core activity but which are critical for their business, such as communications infrastructure services and cybersecurity.

These services have the added value of being based on the technology of world-class manufacturers such as Cisco. Added to this is Ikusi’s in-depth knowledge of Cisco technology, which has earned them Cisco Gold Provider certification for managed services.

This recognition reflects Ikusi’s capacity to manage services at Cisco Powered Service standards, thus improving business results and boosting customer success. These strategic services include Catalyst SD-WAN, Cloud Calling, Cloud Managed Security, Meraki Access and Secure Access Services Edge (SASE).

Two managed services resulting from Ikusi’s and Cisco’s strategic plan are SOC in a Box and Ikusi Fly.

SOC in a Box with Cisco XDR technology is a managed security service that combines Cisco XDR technology and Ikusi’s services to significantly simplify security incident response. Ikusi’s SOC in a Box integrates all security solutions, irrespective of the manufacturer, and provides an easy way to see what is happening on the network.

Ikusi Fly over the WAN combines SD-WAN cloud connectivity and security in a single managed service. It is specially designed for companies distributed over several sites. It offers high standards of communications security, adjusting the cost to real needs according to company size and number of users. Ikusi Fly allows organizations to have executive control of the resources and network services they use and to make immediate cost-benefit decisions, thanks to real-time visibility of the impact on the business.

In addition to its managed services, Ikusi has Ikusi Intelligence and Ikusi ONCE, its real differential value.

Ikusi Intelligence is a portal that provides a global vision of the continuity of network services, security systems, information technologies, network infrastructure automation systems and business intelligence systems. This gives company executives the capacity to make quick, effective decisions owing to comprehensive access to the information of the services contracted from a single portal.

Ikusi ONCE is the company’s unified operations center responsible for the monitoring, support and proactive management of network, cybersecurity and IT infrastructures. It provides incident assistance, resolution and analysis so that the availability or functionality of the customer’s business is not interrupted. All from a single place.

Ikusi ONCE has more than 100 certified engineers, which ensures the best assistance and capacity for managing more than 17 thousand devices and more than 52 thousand tickets on average per year, with 24/7 support.
