Tallac Networks
Managed Service Providers (MSP) and Cloud Service Providers (CSP) built networks with end-to-end proprietary solutions provided by incumbent vendors. MSPs and CSPs are locked into proprietary platforms, paying for capabilities they do not need, and waiting for vendor-provided upgrades to new features. This approach defined a generation of businessmodels that burdened MSPs and CSPs with capital equipment costs, while failing to provide the agility required to meet the rapidly changing demands of business customers.
