Datanet Systems has achieved Cisco Preferred Partner status across all business lines under the new Cisco 360 Partner Program, introduced earlier this year in February. The recognized competency areas include Cloud & AI Infrastructure, Collaboration, Networking, Security, and Services, making Datanet the first company in Romania to reach this milestone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This multiple achievement places Datanet among a select group of regional and European partners that have demonstrated, at the same time, technical excellence, operational maturity, and advanced capabilities across the full Cisco ecosystem.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cAchieving this level of certification required a sustained effort and meeting highly demanding performance criteria across both sales and technical capabilities. That is why we welcome the rollout of the new Cisco 360 program, which creates a much clearer differentiation between partnership levels both locally and globally.<\/p>\n

Earning Cisco Preferred Partner status across all business lines reflects our continued investment in developing our people and maintaining expertise at the highest level, while further strengthening our position as Cisco\u2019s leading partner in Romania,\u201d said Drago\u0219 Stroescu, Executive Director of Datanet Systems.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What this means for Datanet\u2019s customers<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

From a customer perspective, Cisco Preferred Partner status across all key competency areas translates into tangible business value for organizations working with Datanet.<\/p>\n

First, it provides independent validation of Datanet\u2019s technical expertise. Cisco confirms that Datanet has the capabilities required to design, deploy, and operate complex environments across critical domains including cybersecurity, networking, data center, cloud, and lifecycle services.<\/p>\n

Second, the new model enables the delivery of truly integrated solutions. In modern enterprise environments, infrastructure can no longer be approached in silos. Networking, security, automation, observability, and cloud capabilities must be designed as a unified architecture. By maintaining advanced competencies across the entire Cisco portfolio, Datanet significantly reduces operational complexity for customers and removes the need to coordinate multiple specialized providers. The company can design end-to-end architectures, adapt solutions quickly to customer-specific requirements, and deliver managed services built on Cisco technologies.<\/p>\n

In practice, this means organizations can rely on a single partner – Datanet Systems to support the full scope of a project, from architecture and deployment to ongoing operations and optimization.<\/p>\n

Another important advantage is earlier access to innovation. Preferred Partners collaborate more closely with Cisco and gain deeper visibility into technology roadmaps, emerging platforms, and strategic market directions\u2014an increasingly important advantage as AI continues to reshape enterprise infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Finally, this certification validates the maturity of Datanet\u2019s lifecycle services capabilities. Under Cisco\u2019s new partner model, the focus extends beyond implementation to encompass the entire infrastructure lifecycle\u2014from adoption and optimization to security, operations, upgrades, and renewals. For customers, this translates into reduced operational risk, more predictable outcomes, and infrastructure environments designed to evolve alongside business priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

More than a certification: recognition of expertise built over more than 25 years<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Within the Cisco ecosystem, certifications go far beyond commercial credentials. They are earned through a rigorous validation process that assesses technical excellence, delivery capabilities, team expertise, lifecycle services maturity, and the ability to execute and support complex projects over the long term.<\/p>\n

For Datanet, this latest achievement is the result of a partnership with Cisco developed consistently over more than 25 years. Throughout this journey, the company has reached a series of milestones that reflect both sustained growth and long-term commitment to excellence:<\/span><\/p>\n
