New York – December 20, 2015 – Slice Managed Solutions announces a new partnership with Ruckus Wireless, Inc. (NYSE: RKUS) today. Already home to the Ruckus’ NYC Training Center, Slice Managed Solutions has been additionally selected to service sales inquiries for the newly released Ruckus Unleashed™ product line in Manhattan and surrounding boroughs. The new partnership will assist in enabling small-to-medium-sized locations like apartments, cafes, smaller offices and venues, lobby’s, retail, and more to realize high performing, secure and intelligent enterprise-class mobility solutions. Ruckus Unleashed access points are based on a new controller-less Wi-Fi architecture that reduces ownership costs and delivers up to 50 percent higher Wi-Fi performance for small business environments. Separate controllers and access point licenses are no longer needed, significantly reducing upfront costs. Set-up is also easy, thanks to a simplified web interface that helps businesses configure Wi-Fi in just 60 seconds. In addition, Slice Managed Solutions will enable the ability to deliver Unleashed product demos and training at their conveniently located Manhattan office for the Ruckus partner community.
Commenting on the partnership, Eddy Wong, President of Sliced Managed Solutions, said, “Having a strong presence in the wireless market, we have seen a void of recommendable product to service the smaller market and are extremely excited with Ruckus’ expansion into the lower end markets. Now complemented by our support, those of lesser size now have the same backing as larger customers for solving the challenges associated with realizing high performance Wi-Fi capability.”
Through this collaboration, customers in New York City now have the best of both worlds with greater access to Ruckus Unleashed Smart Wi-Fi technology, and full service support including training, demo units, hot spare inventory and installation and monthly management capabilities. The collaboration between Ruckus and Slice Managed Solutions covers all neighborhoods of Manhattan.
