SageNet provides network managed services for large and small quick-service and other multisite retail operators. The company owns and operates one of the largest proprietary networks in the country and specializes in design and deployment of wide area networks (WANS) for its customers. SageNet’s value proposition to quick-service operators is simple and straightforward: Focus on what they do best, which is restaurant operations, and SageNet will focus on what it does best, which is managing and monitoring their WAN, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
No matter how small or large the customer, service is where SageNet sets itself apart from its competition.
“Our culture is what makes us different,” says Huck Walling, chief marketing officer of SageNet. “Everyone at SageNet is empowered to act in the best interest of our customer.”
PCI support is a natural part of SageNet’s core business. Leveraging its Tulsa-based network operations center, SageNet’s Log Management Service helps improve its customers’ compliance posture as well as their network security by collecting, reviewing, and archiving log data from customer network components, including routers, switches, firewalls, POS systems, and other devices that handle credit card data. SageNet network analysts monitor and manage the logs generated by each customer’s network infrastructure and provides complete reporting and trend analysis to help its customers take a proactive approach to network security in order to identify and mitigate threats before they can create trouble.
“We treat our customers as if it was ourselves, and that it is our security and reputation at risk,” Walling says. “We take a great deal of pride in that.”
