Extreme Network has announced the upcoming general availability of Extreme Platform ONE™ for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). Built on a unique AI-driven multi-tenant architecture, consumption-based billing, and poolable licensing, Extreme Platform ONE delivers unmatched flexibility, simplicity, and cost savings, enabling MSPs to manage customers at scale.

Extreme’s MSP programme allows partners to offer innovative networking, security, and AI solutions that scale operations, create differentiation in a crowded market, and accelerate time to revenue. Extreme currently has more than 40 MSP partners.

Extreme Platform ONE helps MSPs manage licenses, performance, and service interruptions within a single workspace, reducing the time and IT staff needed for operational excellence. With everything centralised, MSPs gain a comprehensive view of each client's network health, performance, and security status. Leveraging Extreme Platform ONE’s AI Core, MSPs will benefit from deep automation powered by conversational, interactive, and autonomous AI agents. Extreme Platform ONE helps assist, advise, and accelerate the productivity of networking, security, and business teams—reducing the time to complete complex tasks from hours to minutes.

With the industry’s first and only consumption-based billing model, Extreme helps eliminate hefty upfront costs and ensures cost predictability. Extreme’s unique poolable licensing allows MSPs to dynamically allocate and reassign licenses across devices, locations, or customers—making scaling the business more flexible and easier than ever.
