NetWORKS As Advertised Award
Overview
In 1995 we introduced our NetWORKS As Advertised program, a testing service providing vendors with an objective evaluation before their new networking products are released to the general public. Vendors who successfully meet the NAA test criteria receive Miercom's seal of approval.

Test Criteria
We apply a full test methodology to each product we test. While the specifics of the testing vary substantially from one product to another, the evaluation always focuses on practical and usability issues.
The methodologies always follow the same five-part structure:
» Installation & Ease of Use
