In early 2021, we were proud to announce that Dynamo6 had achieved Cisco Select Provider status. This was a foundational certification within the Cisco Partner Program, specifically for partners in the "Provider" role who build, manage, and support managed services.

To achieve this, we completed a Cisco Express Specialisation track, formally recognising our expertise in delivering managed solutions built on Cisco technologies, particularly around connectivity and secure access.

A Long History with Cisco Meraki

Our journey with Cisco Meraki began long before this achievement. We’ve been a partner for over seven years, and over that time, we’ve worked with leading New Zealand organisations like PAK'nSAVE, The Base shopping centre, Stark Property, and Tainui Group Holdings. Together, we've found clever ways to secure spaces, gather insights on how areas are used, and create innovative ways to engage with customers, all powered by reliable Cisco Meraki hardware.

Validating Our Managed Services Model

This new partner status was a direct validation of our managed services model. As more businesses move to "as a Service" offerings, they look for greater flexibility and ways to focus their resources on strategic outcomes rather than on day-to-day technology management. Our approach has always been to meet this exact need.

The Foundation of Our Managed Network Services

The result of these efforts was our "Smart Networking" solution, designed to help businesses transform their network from a simple utility into a strategic asset. Beyond the initial setup, our Managed Services team acts as your dedicated partner, providing proactive monitoring and strategic guidance to ensure your network delivers continuous value. We take ownership of your network's health, handling the monitoring, management, and optimisation so you can focus on your business while we maximise the performance and security of your technology investment.

Editor's Note: This post from March 2021 celebrates the moment Dynamo6 became an official Cisco Select Provider. While Cisco's partner programs have evolved, this milestone was a key recognition of our expertise in delivering secure, managed networking solutions. The "Smart Networking" service mentioned here is where our team handles the full deployment of your Cisco Meraki network, then our Managed Services team takes over its ongoing health and security so you can focus on your business.
