Given the fast-growing reliance on technology in business, IT teams have evolved from their traditional role as a ‘boots on the ground’ support function to key decision-makers. But while today’s IT teams are expected to drive innovation and do more to help the bottom line, many are left dealing with limited resources.

In fact, a 2020 PagerDuty survey revealed three-quarters of IT employees say the amount of unplanned work they have increased by more than 100 hours over the course of a year. More than four-fifths of those surveyed also stated that unplanned work directly results in less innovation for their business. 

What’s more, the vast majority of respondents (90%) said they use little to no dedicated solutions for issue resolution or network management.

At Area9, we partner with Aruba to help organisations automate and simplify network management, reducing mean time to issue resolution, while increasing their network capacity and security posture. Here are five ways we help accelerate business growth with Aruba.

1. Greater network visibility

A survey by the Ponemon Institute found that more than a third (38%) of IT security practitioners say their organisation is not ideally equipped to monitor the availability and performance of traffic on their network.

Aruba Central, Aruba’s cloud network management and operations platform, makes streamlines everything from network setup to monitoring and maintenance. Whether managing one site or a thousand remote locations, full visibility and control over all network traffic is possible via Aruba’s enterprise-grade portal. 

2. Faster issue resolution

Aruba’s flexible AI and machine learning tools are designed to address issues in all phases of the connection process, including association with access points, network authentication, address assignment and domain name service accessibility. Always-on monitoring and anomaly detection work to pre-empt or quickly resolve issues before they impact the business.

3. Low-cost scalability

Thanks to the cost benefits of the cloud, Aruba offers enterprise networking solutions at a consumer-grade price. Flexible subscription terms and financing options also make it possible to scale up or down as required, negating the need for a significant upfront investment.

4. Centralised network control

Aruba’s all-in-one dashboard provides a streamlined overview of the entire network, including comprehensive client and application performance monitoring views. Intelligent workflows provide the ability to look into specific device, policy or circuit configurations to ensure performance and availability match changing workforce requirements.

5. Enhanced security

According to the Ponemon Institute, more than two-thirds (69%) of IT practitioners believe some of their organisation’s existing security solutions are outdated and inadequate.

Aruba User Experience Insight (UXI) is a cloud-based service assurance solution that validates network health and troubleshoots problems that affect day-to-day user experience. A simple, intuitive dashboard provides a proactive way to solve problems before they impact the business. UXI is easy to configure, deploy and manage, and immediately begins providing insights once sites are online.
