WESTBOROUGH, Mass., Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Akibia, a leading provider of consulting, integration, support, and managed services for data center, network and security solutions, announced today that network support service has increased 54% for Q1 fiscal year 2012.
Akibia's traction in network support services can be attributed to a number of factors, including:
- Cost-Effective Solutions – Akibia can save customers 25-40% more than the original equipment manufacturers (OEM) on maintenance services.
- Faster Resolution – Akibia's call answer time is less than 19 seconds, and engineers do not use voicemail or scripts, leading to faster call resolution and more satisfied clients.
- Focus on Service – Akibia's extensive knowledge, expertise and best practices supporting high-availability infrastructure enables delivery of the highest standard of service and support to clients.
"We have been extremely impressed with Akibia's response times and technical knowledge of our network appliances. We will continue to roll more of our hardware to the Akibia contract," stated the Network Manager of a Fortune 500 insurance company.
"By providing customized service level agreements (SLAs) Akibia ensures clients only pay for the support levels they require," said Tom Tucker, President and CEO of Akibia. "While OEMs may incentivize clients to upgrade to expensive new equipment before it is necessary, Akibia is focused on helping clients maximize their existing infrastructure."
Akibia provides 24x7 hardware maintenance services for all major brands of network hardware. Services include global technical support, best-in-class logistics and delivery of parts, trained and certified onsite labor support, and hardware maintenance training.
