"As Gamma’s chosen Juniper, Infinera, A10 Networks, and Arista network support partner for the last 6 years, Xantaro has consistently demonstrated excellence in delivering professional network engineering and support services to Gamma and is a strategic partner within Gamma’s network engineering and network operations teams. The diligence, approach, and time Xantaro has shown throughout this partnership have been key to how we would like to work with our support partners. This, coupled with the excellent engineering capability Xantaro has demonstrated over the past 12 months, has been key to our decision to continue this partnership. The model and support Xantaro offers align with my vision of how I would like the Gamma IP engineering team to evolve.

Xantaro’s expertise ensures that Gamma is able to select network solutions that satisfy our unique requirements. Through design support, proof of concept functional and scale testing utilizing the extensive XT3Lab, Gamma can be confident of the seamless introduction and migration of the latest network products and technologies thanks to the support of Xantaro.

Xantaro’s comprehensive support and maintenance services also ensure that network and operational issues are dealt with quickly and efficiently, ensuring that Gamma’s network operation continues to deliver exceptional network and service availability.

“Xantaro are a strategic partner to us and provide the majority of our networking equipment which is mostly Nokia, and some of our security equipment, such as FortiGate firewalls… they really are a full value partner. We get technical support from them. We get a great service. As far as acquiring the equipment and providing the equipment, even at strange times of day or night. So we do very much rely on them to support our delivery and rollout of our full fibre network.”

"Firstly, we liked the network concept that Xantaro outlined for our project. Secondly, we were impressed by Xantaro's extensive technical expertise and experience, as well as their ability to act flexibly and find good solutions quickly. With Xantaro, we got the all-round carefree package for this project! The collaboration is characterised by trust, the transfer of know-how is good and the technical arrangements work really well - we are absolutely satisfied!"

"Xantaro has been our maintenance partner for Juniper hardware for several years. The cooperation with the XTAC - Xantaro's Technical Assistance Centre - has proven to be extremely reliable and value-adding in day-to-day business. Its network knowledge and effective communication with manufacturers are equally impressive, which minimises resolution and recovery times.

I see the XTAC as a reliable addition to our own teams. Prompt response, understanding of the problem and business impact and responsible handling allows my employees to concentrate on other essential tasks such as the operation and configuration of the Vodafone IP networks. Here, networkers work with networkers and it shows in the results."

“Part of the reason that they’re so good to work with is they’ve been one of our longest standing and one of our largest partners across EMEA for a number of years now. And mainly because their technical capability is just streets ahead of most other partners that we’ve got out there, their labs are some of the best equipped labs I’ve ever seen and maybe even slightly better than ours, if I’m honest. You know so they’ve got the wherewithal, they’ve got the knowledge and the understanding to be able to support our customers. And at the end of the day we want our customers who are buying Juniper kit to have a good experience and we know that coming to Xantaro is a safe pair of hands and they will get that good experience."

"We have been working with Xantaro for many years - so far mainly in the area of routing and switching technologies. The team specialises in high-availability networks and knows the technical and operational challenges we face as operators of a business-critical IT infrastructure. ... The high degree of automation makes day-to-day network operations much easier. However, we would not have expected that the monitoring and management could also be extended to our entire data infrastructure and that we would also benefit in other business areas - luckily we had the right consultant at our side with Xantaro!"

"In Xantaro, we have found a reliable, competent and very flexible partner who has ensured the secure and trouble-free integration of the new MPLS backbone."

"Stability is absolutely essential to us. Our Network needs to be up and running all the time – downtime is not an option ever. CBC, Xantaro and Juniper work together to keep that network up and running.

We count on Xantaro to bring together the right experts to support us. We see that they come with their own consultants to support us, but they also bring expertise from the vendors to us. So there is a good mixture which gives us the best support to bring out the best network quality."

"Thanks to Xantaro's support, we were able to secure the migration to the new DE-CIX Apollon platform during a sensitive project phase and complete it successfully in the end.

As always, Xantaro provided us with extremely competent, secure and flexible support."

"A major advantage of Xantaro's concept was that we were able to retain our existing infrastructure and supplement and upgrade it with new technology. This protects our previous investments and at the same time makes us fit for future requirements.

We are once again extremely satisfied with the collaboration and are now in a first-class position in our market."

This has laid a good foundation - also for our planned international expansion."

"The planning for the new data centre (...) gave us the opportunity to draw on Xantaro's expertise for the planning and implementation of the new network.

“They (Xantaro) designed and implemented our core network….and they are always on hand to help with anything that we can’t do in-house. Xantaro are very proactive. They reach out to us with quarterly account reviews to make sure they’re providing the services that we need in a timely fashion and give us a chance to raise any problems that we have. They’ve got some great skilled engineers…overall a pleasure to work with and knowing they’ve got our back if we struggle.”

"Nokia recommended Xantaro as one of the best providers in the UK, and we have entered into a partnership that works very well for us... they really make it very easy for us to work with them. They are very responsive, very helpful and very professional. I can contact my account manager at any time.... I don't have any negative feedback, to be honest... They are a pleasure to work with."

"Deploying fibre in rural areas with low population density brings a set of challenges that Xantaro has enabled us to address.
