About the Team

NetBrain’s Network Support team is part of Advanced Services, the group that helps our customers get lasting value from NetBrain’s network automation platform after the sale. We’re a global team of Support Engineers working across time zones, so customers get timely, expert help when they need it.

Our engineers are the first point of contact for customers running NetBrain in some of the most complex enterprise and government networks.

We work closely with Development, Quality Assurance, Sales, and Services Engineering to resolve complex issues and feed what we learn from customers back into the product.
