Enterprise Networking Built for Control, Cost, and Scale

Enterprise networks are being asked to do more than ever, connect more users, more devices, more locations, and more critical applications, all while staying secure and cost-efficient. Yet many organisations still rely on rigid networking stacks that limit flexibility and create long-term dependency on a single vendor.
At Statice Tech, we deliver open, scalable networking solutions using high-performance EdgeCore hardware and a fully managed approach through our implementation partner ecosystem. The goal is simple: give enterprises the freedom to design networks around business needs, not licensing models, while keeping operations reliable, secure, and scalable.
Why Traditional Networking Models Hold Enterprises Back
Most networks evolve through incremental upgrades. Over time, this often results in a stack that is harder to manage and expensive to modernise.
Common challenges include:
Vendor lock-in across hardware, software, and support
Higher long-term costs due to recurring licensing and forced upgrade cycles
Limited flexibility to adapt the network as business needs change
Slower adoption of automation and modern operational workflows
Scaling complexity as device density and performance requirements grow
For CIOs and IT heads, this becomes a strategic constraint. For network admins, it becomes an operational bottleneck.
The Shift Toward Open Networking
Open networking separates the hardware layer from the network operating system. Instead of buying a closed stack, enterprises can choose:
Hardware based on performance and reliability
A network operating system aligned to feature needs and operational preference
A management model that supports visibility, automation, and long-term control
This shift reduces dependency, improves flexibility, and creates a cleaner path to scale across multiple sites.
What This Approach Unlocks With EdgeCore Hardware
EdgeCore is known for open networking hardware designed to support open standards and a broad ecosystem of network operating systems. This allows enterprises to build networks where:
Hardware refresh cycles are not tied to a single software roadmap
Provisioning and deployment can be standardised across sites
Expansion becomes simpler because configurations and rollouts are repeatable
In short, you get enterprise-grade performance with more control over how your network evolves over time.
Business Benefits That Matter to CIOs and IT Teams
Open networking is not just a technical preference. It can deliver tangible outcomes for cost, control, and agility.
Lower total cost of ownership More flexibility in procurement decisions and reduced dependence on proprietary licensing models.
Freedom to choose how the network is run Many enterprises evaluate open network operating systems such as SONiC and other ONIE-compatible options based on feature fit and operational comfort.
Faster innovation without forced rip-and-replace You can modernise workflows and capabilities without being blocked by a single vendor’s roadmap.
Stronger security posture through transparency and control With the right governance, open systems support cleaner configuration control and consistent patching.
Easier scaling across sites Standardised provisioning and templates help replicate the same policies and performance across offices, facilities, and campuses.
What Statice Tech Delivers End-to-End
The biggest concern enterprises have with open networking is operational complexity. That is exactly what we solve by providing a complete design, deployment, and managed operations model.
Consultation and network design
We assess your current setup and future expansion plans, then design an architecture that supports scalability, segmentation, redundancy, and long-term manageability.
Hardware selection and procurement
We help you select EdgeCore switches and access points aligned to your topology, capacity requirements, and growth roadmap.
Software integration
We support integration of a suitable network operating system with the hardware layer, based on your environment and operational preference.
Deployment and configuration
Professional implementation, validation testing, and documentation to ensure stability and operational readiness.
Managed services
Ongoing monitoring, maintenance, support, and change control to keep the network reliable as your needs evolve.
Where This Works Best
This approach is a strong fit for environments where uptime, security, cost predictability, and scalability matter.
Typical fit includes:
Multi-site enterprises that want standardised rollouts
Industrial facilities where reliability is critical
Campuses and large office environments with high device density
Organisations modernising toward automation-driven operations
Enterprises reducing vendor dependency while staying performance-focused
What a Typical Engagement Looks Like
Assessment and roadmap
Architecture and design
Procurement and integration planning
Deployment and validation
Managed operations and optimisation
If a phased rollout is required, we structure the implementation site-by-site or layer-by-layer to reduce disruption.
Control Today. Flexibility Tomorrow.
Modern networks are strategic foundations for productivity, security, and scale. A more open approach helps enterprises reduce dependency, modernise operations, and build infrastructure that can evolve without constant reinvestment.
