Executive Perspectives

Scott A. Marrow, PMP, P.Eng., Manager of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Services, Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board

“As School Board networks become more sophisticated in order to adapt to changing student needs, our security posture has become more complex and demanding of backend systems. Adopting ExtremeCloud IQ has had a positive impact on our day-to-day administration, providing greater visibility and reducing time spent managing our distributed network. We were excited to learn of Extreme’s new Azure data center in Canada, which helps address our concerns with data sovereignty and compliance.”

Scott Murphy, Vice President of Business Development, Data Perceptions, Inc.

“Cloud network orchestration provides significant advantages, but data sovereignty interests have kept some Canadian organizations from reaping the benefits. ExtremeCloud IQ takes care of keeping network services running and secure, removing 80% of manual effort and allowing the customer to focus on the other 20% – service configuration and monitoring. In short, this industry leading platform saves administrators time and drives costs out of operating a network. Now that ExtremeCloud IQ can be provisioned to run in a Canadian data center, we expect organizations that have been holding back on moving to cloud management to make the shift.”

Paul Semak, Vice President of Sales – Canada, Extreme Networks

Canada has long been a hub of technological innovation, and Extreme has been a proud member of this thriving technology community for nearly 20 years. As we look toward the future, we are investing in the brightest people and the best technology to make our vision of effortless customer experience a reality.
