Partner Spotlight: Netomate

Company overview

Netomate is an Australian solution provider specialising in network automation, cloud and secure networking. Headquartered in Sydney with a presence in the Middle East and serving clients globally, we work with mid-market and enterprise organisations across financial services, telecommunications and manufacturing, among others.

Our clients typically have real infrastructure complexity. They need systems that scale without the operational load scaling with them.

What differentiates us is how we work: we simplify complex environments through lean processes and automation, starting with the client's problem and working backwards from there. Most organisations now run systems across both on-prem and cloud, which means two operating models, two toolsets and twice the overhead. We close that gap for our clients. We are engineering-led and partner-backed: AWS and Microsoft Azure in cloud, Cisco and Fortinet in networking.

Cloud solutions and services

Our cloud practice runs on three principles. We automate first, we engineer security in, and we apply the well-architected standard from the start. We manage infrastructure as code across AWS and Azure, giving clients environments that are repeatable, auditable and fast to change. That extends across multi-cloud and on-prem, run as one consistent environment rather than separate silos.

Secure hybrid connectivity is a core specialism. We build and deliver connectivity between data centres, cloud and sites.

We also help clients get more from what they already run. That means optimising cloud spend, re-architecting workloads to use the cloud efficiently instead of pure lift and shift, and aligning infrastructure with compliance obligations, including the operational resilience requirements now facing regulated industries.

The same problems come up repeatedly. Change processes do not scale, configuration drifts between systems, visibility is limited, and cloud costs grow unchecked.

Customer success story

Netomate has saved clients over 15,500 engineering hours through automation. Working with the engineering team at one of Australia's largest financial institutions, we automated a 34-step network deployment that took six hours every time it ran. It now takes under an hour.

A global access management provider needed connectivity across more than 10 sites. The original fibre plan would have taken 12 months to commission and was expensive to extend. We delivered a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) over dual 5G links, with AWS as the central hub for secure connectivity and network monitoring. That cut nine months from the timeline, reduced network provisioning cost by around 90 per cent, and gave unified visibility across the environment.

Every change is validated before and after deployment, which matters where one misconfiguration affects availability.

Industry expertise and innovation

Our approach to cloud adoption is incremental and built around a short time to value. We look at what the client already runs, take the process carrying the highest operational cost, and automate that one first. The return shows up while the work is still running, and each iteration builds on what is already delivering.

Prioritising the right initiatives plays a bigger role than the tooling. We target work that is frequent, manual, and carries the most risk. That is where automation pays back fastest. A simple process that runs every week returns more than a complex one that runs twice a year.

We build with AI daily and run AI workflows across our own business and engineering processes. AI has made generating change cheaper, but the bottleneck has moved to verifying change, and to knowing which changes add value to the business. We continue to tackle that by building the validation and metrics that support it.

Future vision

Netomate was built at the intersection of networking and automation, and cloud followed as a natural extension of that work. For most organisations, cloud has stopped being a destination and become part of the operating model. The growth of AI workloads has accelerated that shift, placing demands on infrastructure that was never designed to carry them. The real question is whether they can run security, networking and cloud as one auditable environment rather than three separate stacks stitched together.

Our clients need to move quickly without compromising safety and security. Achieving that requires change that is automated and auditable. That is the operating model we build, and we treat convergence as an ongoing practice, integrating each new technology as it arrives.
