"Not having Kentik is unacceptable." ✅

See how customers like @Midcontinent, @Imperva, and @metronet, and more use Kentik to automate DDoS defense and optimize their edge.👇

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

I absolutely love hearing from our customers. In just a few months at Kentik, the volume of overwhelmingly positive feedback has been phenomenal — from network operators all the way up through procurement, CxOs, and other execs.

[Kentik @kentikinc]

"It's answering questions in a matter of seconds instead of hours."

We spoke with engineering leaders from @Midcontinent, @metronet, and @ConwayCorp about how Kentik AI Advisor is changing their workflows.

In their words, "It frees up my engineers to do the real engineering."

@eastdakota I’m so incredibly sorry. I’m glad everyone is safe. These situations can sometimes create massive opportunities to build on years of awesome experience and create something even more proud of.

@BritishGasHelp I don't have a smart meter... That's the point :)

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

New low from @BritishGas today!
"You have a fault on your meter"
"I do? How did you figure that out?
"we detected it"
"how?"
"your meter is outdated"
"so it's not fault then?"
"no - we want to automatically collect readings"
TLDR; Don't lie to your customers.

@troyhunt @shelly_IoT I’ve had a few blow. Their warranty is handy, as they’ve sent me free replacements. Always concerning though!

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@ThompsonReuters did you guys have a little compromise of your mail platform? I got a FedEx phishing attempt from "[email protected]" - the body (attached) has your tracking URLs in it, and SPF

ICYMI! Take a look at the #CiscoLive news from ThousandEyes 👇

@British_Airways Delayed for 3h tho 😂😂.

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@British_Airways hats off the staff at checkin! Had an ESTA drama and they went above and beyond to get me on my flight 🙏 Thank you!

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@AstraLyne_x @_Amy__Louise_ @flightradar24 I guess it's also safe to say it's not a "threat" if it's going to LHR (unless that status for STN has changed!)

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@steven_pack @elonmusk You can never beat that MT view.

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@SimonWijckmans @steven_pack @mibullock @SimmerVigor @MichaelTremante does that all the time

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@davitb I'm a huge krisp fan, but your latest feature popping up a "krisp is ON" which steals focus from whatever I'm doing is extremely frustrating. I don't think it's taking into consideration that the Webex app isn't just only for meetings. I sent a video into support fyi :)

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@LakeAustinBlvd @_irtefa Take notes @mibullock. 🤣

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@British_Airways Now the https://t.co/BkFvNvjdsY site has been updated I don’t need a test? https://t.co/3jcX4LODVm…. Effective from Sunday 12th June 2022 at 00:01 ET (5:01 am BST), the CDC will no longer require pre-departure COVID-19 testing for USA-bound air travellers.

[Alex Cruz Farmer @alexcf]

@British_Airways with the latest announcement from the https://t.co/HvdiJY2Gq7, will I need do a test to fly into the US on Sunday?
