LightEdge is very proud to say that it has been certified as a Cisco Cloud Provider and is one of only 11 companies in the United States with a Cisco Powered Cloud Service (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) designation. Because so few providers have been certified to this level, it puts LightEdge in a very unique position to provide reliable and effective Private, Public and Hybrid Cloud solutions based on a Cisco powered infrastructure.
In addition to the Cisco Cloud Provider designation, LightEdge holds a Premier Reseller certification which enables the company to sell premise-based equipment. In combination both certs allow LightEdge to focus on providing the most effective solution for its customers whether it is delivered in a LightEdge or customer-managed data center.
