SUPPORT SERVICES
Professional and Managed Services Exclusive Networks offers an extensive professional and managed services portfolio, which enables our business partners to successfully expand their product and service capabilities. We believe no partner should be held back from winning business through a lack of technical resources. Our services are designed to augment partners own capabilities, accelerate return on investment for new or extended propositions, and increase business opportunity with existing and prospective clients. Partners adopting Exclusive Networks professional and managed services benefit from trusted support throughout the full solution lifecycle from advisor to implementer, and trainer to maintainer. Exclusive Networks invests heavily in both training and expanding our engineering team, enabling us to provide powerful and comprehensive support including: Engineering services (test & staging) Pre sales engineering and bid preparation Technical sales calls and overviews First look presentations Site surveys Virtual CTO service Full product introduction service First Looks Proof of Concept service Utilising the skills, expertise and accreditations of Exclusive Networks, our Proof of Concept (PoC) service helps business partners reduce risks and remove entry barriers in a quick and cost-effective way.

Utilising our PoC service will enable you to differentiate your business, improve your deployment success and strengthen your customer relationships. Installation services Exclusive Networks installation services are designed to enhance the existing technical resources of our partners.
