FirstLight's Managed Edge enhances the company's high quality, fiber-based communications services by offering customers a single solution for connectivity coupled with fully managed devices for a complete end-to-end solution. FirstLight's Managed Edge Routing and Managed Edge Security solutions provide performance-oriented edge network solutions managed via a user friendly, single pane of glass to provide deep insight into hardware, software and application performance, inventory management, redundancy and resiliency.
