Nuvias is the only high-value pan-EMEA distributor to offer the entire Juniper Networks portfolio, including the recently acquired Mist Systems solutions.

London, UK: 05/06/2019: 08.00 BST Nuvias, the EMEA high-value distributor, is extending its remit  to incorporate Juniper Networks’ recently-acquired Mist Systems, provider of AI-driven, all-in-one, cloud solution to manage wireless networks.

The focus of the combined solutions is to simplify operations and improve customer experience while lowering costs for enterprise customers.

Mist, a Juniper company, built the first AI-driven wireless platform with the world’s first virtual IT assistant. The Mist Learning Wireless LAN makes Wi-Fi predictable, reliable and measurable by providing unprecedented visibility into the user experience and by replacing time consuming manual IT tasks with proactive automation. In addition, Mist is the first vendor to bring enterprise-grade Wi-Fi, BLE and IoT together to deliver personalized, location-based wireless services without requiring battery-powered beacons. All operations are managed via Mist’s modern cloud architecture for maximum scalability, agility and performance.

Nuvias is building on its well-established collaboration with Juniper Networks through a channel-partner development and acceleration program that complements Juniper’s own.  Nuvias has the largest dedicated Juniper distribution team in EMEA, supporting partners to deliver technical expertise and efficient and effective business solutions.

Paul Eccleston, Executive Chairman at Nuvias Group, commented: “We are delighted to add Mist Systems to our portfolio. Equipping our channel partners with cutting-edge technology solutions that meet real business requirements is central to our strategy. AI-powered intelligent systems are an area of focus for our business, as they promise to deliver great efficiencies and improved productivity. Nuvias is excited to build on its successful partnership with Juniper, delivering integrated solutions to enterprise customers and channel partners.”

Mike Anderson, Head of Channels at Mist, said, “Mist’s unique approach to wireless, combining AI and cloud capability to take it far beyond just connectivity, enables innovation that delivers business value for our customers. Juniper’s best-in-class networking and security technology, as well as work with companies of Nuvias’ caliber, opens up a lot of exciting potential for us, our channel and our customers.”
