Helping Businesses Thrive
As a Cisco partner based in New York and New Jersey, we have designed networking solutions that can help small businesses succeed with technology.
At Troinet, we help you with…
- Understanding your unique challenges as a small or medium-sized business towards transforming your organization digitally.

- Strategically position your business with Cisco as an industry leader in networking hardware, telecommunications equipment, and high-tech equipment.
As a business owner, you wear many hats, and IT is probably pretty important to your business. While nearly three-quarters of small businesses recognize IT as a crucial part of day-to-day practices, 7 out of every 10 spend just 0 to 10% of their budget on IT. Information technology is clearly an underused resource.
Preparing for the digital economy and remaining competitive requires your business to operate efficiently. Any technology investment must boost growth, enhance productivity, and/or help safeguard the future of the business. Competitive companies must either embrace change and adapt or risk the consequences as rivals become fully fledged digital businesses.
What is Cisco for Small and Medium Businesses?
Cisco for SMBs helps small businesses connect, compute, and collaborate securely. Cisco networking, security, and collaboration solutions provide the following:
- Offer the basic building blocks of business networking
- Protect your business from cyber threats
- Enable you to work smarter with the right collaboration tools
In order to thrive and remain competitive in the digital economy, small businesses must invest in technologies that boost growth, enhance productivity, and help safeguard the future of the business. To remain competitive, companies must embrace change, adapt, or take risks.
How Cisco Can Help Your Business
1. Secure Networking
Networks are more complex than ever, and the demands placed on them continue to increase. So businesses need a platform that supports automated tasks, simplified management, and flexible migrations.
Our network infrastructure solutions – which are part of the Cisco Digital Network Architecture – help streamline IT and promote new business opportunities with an open and programmable approach to networking. With our award-winning network infrastructure that includes support for the Internet of Things (IoT), networked connections are now even more relevant and valuable.
- Switching: Cisco Catalyst® switching and Cisco Unified Access
M solutions provide a converged network platform that is simple, smart, and highly secure. This approach results in a streamlined network that requires less effort to maintain and grow, as new demands like increased mobility or softwaredefined-networking (SDN) arise. Converge wired and wireless on a single platform, gain advanced security across your network, and support the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) trend.
- Routing and WAN: Cisco Intelligent WAN (IWAN) can help your business deliver an exceptional user experience over any transport: Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), direct Internet, or hybrid WAN. Cisco IWAN provides an application-aware network to efficiently deliver critical business applications and increase productivity. You can gain significant savings and help reduce
branch infrastructure costs.

4. Intent-Based Networking
Your network determines how you work today and how you are going to face tomorrow. Many times, crucial components such as mobility, security, data storage, or networking are often compromised because of tough choices surrounding technology decisions.
With intent-based networking, you don’t have to make such difficult choices and you don’t have to compromise. You can have:
- Reliability
- Capacity
- Speed
- Bandwidth
At Troinet, we deliver Cisco’s Intent-based Networking which provides all of them.
AR, VR, AI, machine languages of IoT, threat detection, and security are just some of the technologies that you can leverage with Cisco Intent-based Networking.
It’s wireless-first, cloud-driven, and data-optimized. Cisco is the bridge between what’s now and what’s next.

5. Robust Network Security
Without complete and reliable network security measures in place—internally and externally—your reputation and business will suffer. Network security includes any activity designed to protect the usability and integrity of your network and data.
It encompasses both hardware and software technologies. Effective network security manages access to the network. It targets a variety of threats and stops them from entering or spreading on your network.
How secure is your network? Do you worry about data loss, software exploits, malicious attacks, and other breaches of security? A complete network security should:
✓ Protect the usability and integrity of your network and data
✓Safeguard proprietary information from attack
✓Enable your business to deliver the services that customers and employees demand
6. Effective All-in-One Collaboration
If communication tools aren’t helping a business collaborate and innovate, they’re doing harm by holding the business back from growth. Too often, SMBs often make do with meeting and collaboration solutions that fail to meet their needs; as a result, CEOs struggle to keep clients updated or communicate with workers who are located off-premises.
Troinet’s Cisco’s all-in-one solution for networking, security, and communication connects people and powers business—and best of all, it’s scalable for the needs of a growing business.
Here’s an infographic entitled “Day in the Life” examines the small business benefits of Cisco’s all-in-one team collaboration solutions and shows how Cisco solutions protect growing business networks from the latest security threats.
7. Cisco Threat Response
The objective of any business’s cybersecurity team is to mitigate and control threats before they evolve into events that compromise the business’s normal operations. However, the team may be using multiple security tools from multiple vendors that have diverse interfaces and aren’t necessarily integrated—all of which complicates the user experience. That’s why Cisco offers a proactive strategy that provides timely, comprehensive critical threat defense.
Here’s Troinet’s infographic and whitepaper entitled “Cisco Threat Response: Supporting Intelligence-Driven Incident Response and Threat Hunting.” It describes Cisco Threat Response, a new tool that enhances the ability of security teams to pinpoint and respond to threats within their infrastructure by combining local and global threat context and intelligence from Cisco and third parties.
Why Your Business Deserves Cisco Designed
Small businesses like yours account for 50% of the global GDP and employ 66% of the global workforce. And in this age of rapid technological advancement, it’s more critical than ever to have access to the right technology to stay relevant, compete for customers, and manage efficiencies.
Get this whitepaper entitled “Why Your Business Deserves Cisco Designed,” which explains how Cisco Designed allows you to connect, compute, and collaborate securely so that you can focus on your core business.
