Knoxville, TN – 06/06/24 – Cradlepoint, the global leader in cloud-delivered LTE and 5G wireless network and security solutions, has awarded RCN Technologies the 2023 Technical Excellence Partner of the Year Award. Presented at Cradlepoint’s recent 2024 Global Partner Summit, this award recognizes the significant achievements of RCN Technologies.
Cradlepoint recognizes partners in three categories: outstanding performance, commitment to customers, and significant achievements over the last year. Each recognized partner has demonstrated exceptional year-over-year growth and a continued commitment to positioning and selling Cradlepoint’s entire portfolio of wireless and security solutions.
“Innovation and excellence has always been part of my DNA as an entrepreneur, and when Jennifer and I set out to create RCN, we naturally gravitated toward people and partners who meshed well with those traits. It’s hard to believe we began our Cradlepoint journey in 2013 simply integrating failover for VOIP services, but because of the people we surround ourselves and succeed with, I’m amazed to see each and every way our team challenges the traditional branch/IoT/Mobile go-to-market of wireless WAN today. Cradlepoint’s recognition of our commitment to excellence and innovation is a dream come true.”
As enterprises strive to be more competitive in an evolving global economy, they are turning to new and innovative technologies that can help transform their businesses. However, innovation cannot be limited by location or complexity. Public and private cellular networking coupled with modern security and traffic optimization unlock new opportunities for innovative enterprises to grow their business anywhere with confidence. With 5G at the center of Cradlepoint’s solutions, companies can securely and efficiently create offices on wheels, use computer vision for safety and efficiency, create agile manufacturing environments, and digitize business in rugged spaces.
“How fortunate RCN sits to have a true partner in Cradlepoint that challenges market status quos with their portfolio of wireless WAN solutions. For nearly 8 years, I’ve seen Cradlepoint push the envelope, challenge wireline-dominate market norms, and drive the future of networking from the first NetCloud Integrated hardware package, to 5G WAN, to PCN and SASE, and to the the killer apps like network slicing on the horizon. With every new launch, I’ve watched front-row as the sales, fulfilment, and support teams here at RCN embraced these technologies to advance Cradlepoint’s mission while unlocking new ways to embed Cradlepoint’s product into our own OEM solutions. Without Cradlepoint’s dedication to technical excellence, no doubt RCN would not be the innovators we are today. In a way, this award belongs just as much to Cradlepoint as it does to RCN!”
“The expansion of Cradlepoint’s portfolio to include private networks and our new NetCloud SASE, along with a simplified model for managed services, has enabled our partners to create a wireless-first network practice while adding on value-add services such as security and remote management,” said Eric Purcell, senior vice president of global partner sales at Cradlepoint. “We are appreciative of all of our resellers taking on new frontiers and creating unique practices that are accelerating LTE and 5G Wireless WAN and LAN adoption. RCN Technologies has worked hard to receive this recognition.”
