Sidonis and Harris Stratex Networks Sign Reseller Agreement

Sidonis, the emerging new leader in Service Assurance, today announced it has entered into a formal agreement with Harris Stratex Networks, a leading provider of turnkey service assurance solutions for mobility and broadband networks. Sidonis established the strategic partnership with Harris Stratex because of growing global demand for more sophisticated and flexible systems to support increasingly complex networks and services. Harris Stratex will benefit with the ability to offer its clients an end-to-end, best-of-breed network management solution set that meets and exceeds expectations.

Complementing existing fault and service level management systems, Sidonis|StateWise® incorporates significant innovations in root cause and service impact analysis. Through advanced data modelling, visualisation and topology-based correlation techniques, Sidonis|StateWise® enables:

  • Improved performance against commercial service level agreements – reducing the commercial impact of outages
  • Faster identification and more appropriate response to failure scenarios
  • Higher productivity of network operations and field dispatch/engineering teams
  • Lower information systems costs for an increasingly business-critical function

With the greater speed, accuracy, and sophistication that Sidonis|StateWise® offers, providers of network-based services can support complex, demanding yet high-value services with confidence.

Commenting on the agreement with Harris Stratex, Don Keir, Sidonis CEO, said “Service providers are operating increasingly large, complex and dynamic networks. Consequently, assuring services that rely on those networks requires more sophisticated systems, capable of operating across multiple technologies and at scale. Our agreement with Harris Stratex will make Sidonis’s unique technology accessible to service providers around the world, making service assurance a key differentiator in winning high-value business.”

“Our agreement allows us to incorporate Sidonis' solution with our NetBoss XT® network management software platform to deliver capabilities that address our customers’ ongoing network performance management and integrated service assurance needs,” said Keith Donahue, vice president of global network services for Harris Stratex. “Our next-generation NetBoss XT® software suite combined with Sidonis’ correlation and impact analysis technology helps make us a full-turnkey service supplier for companies seeking comprehensive resource and network management.”

“This agreement underscores Sidonis’ commitment to partnering with companies that have the capacity to bring our technology to new markets in need of service and quality assurance,” said Don Keir, CEO of Sidonis. “Harris Stratex Networks’ worldwide presence gives us additional reach across Europe, Africa and the Middle East. We are excited to align ourselves with companies like Harris Stratex that share our vision to deliver superior solutions that meet today’s network challenges.”
