Module 7: Technical Support Services Portfolio

What Is SMARTnet?

Additionally, SMARTnet Onsite includes the same elements as Cisco SMARTnet but includes an onsite technical for hardware replacement and installation. SMARTnet Onsite is ideal for customers who:

  Have limited technical staff or onsite engineers.
  Have a shortage of spare parts of limited warehousing capacity.
  Do not have network redundancy or alternate routing possibilities.
  Have a network that is distributed over remote offices.
