On the 1st April 2011, NetCare officially became a NETGEAR Platinum Partner. We have been providing NETGEAR hardware to our small business customers for many years so it was a logical step for us to move to top level partner status.

We have standardized on the provision of NETGEAR ProSafe switches to our customer base throughout Australia. We have found them to be exceptionally reliable and they offer great value for money. We love their lifetime warranty so that on the rare occasion when there is a switch failure at a customer site, we can quickly perform a swap-out task, and effortlessly take care of the warranty claim issues later.

We have also introduced the ReadyNAS range of network storage devices to many customers as part of their backup strategy. These devices offer faster and more reliable backups than traditional tape-based solutions. NetCare now recommends the NETGEAR ReadyNAS drive as a key component of our preferred backup solution. A full report on this backup strategy can be found at Best Backup Strategy.
