Itential is a developer of a network automation software designed to simplify and accelerate cloud automation. The company's software connects IT systems with network technologies for end-to-end network configuration, compliance, and automation. The Itential platform is a low-code, scalable, network automation solution for physical, virtual, and cloud networks. The platform is intended to be a vendor agnostic solution.

Partner programs

Itential has two partner programs: the Itential Channel Partner Program and the Itential Technology Alliance Program. Both programs are intended to help Itential build integrations with network and cloud technology providers. Both partner programs offer partner resources, including Itential Academy and Training Courses, where partners can develop network automation skills through self-paced training courses: Itential Platform Overview, where partners can receive an overview of Itential's low-code network automation software, and Itential Developer Hub, where partners can go through and develop tools and technology to design, build, and run network automations.

Example members of the Itential Channel Partner Program include Amartus, Cisco, Devoteam, GDT, Logicalis, Lumen, Stream Networks, Tech Mahindra, Trace3, and World Wide Technology. While example members of the Itential Technology Alliance Program include Aviatrix, Cisco, Cloudify, Exfo, Forward Networks, Intentionet, Kaloom, Netrounds, RedHat, and Versa Networks.

Platform

Itential's network automation platform is a low-code automation software and cloud infrastructure for physical, virtual, and hybrid multi-cloud networks. The platform is intended to be vendor agnostic and connect to any IT system, cloud, or network technology for end-to-end configuration, compliance, and automation.

Automation

The platform is intended to allow for automated routine network maintenance to help network operators focus on higher-order network needs and to automate configuration and compliance, so golden configuration standards to ensure both traditional and cloud networks remain in compliance. This service is intended to work across all aspects of a network domain, including cloud, IP services, network applications, branch/SD-WAN, datacenter, and multi-cloud.

Integration

Itential intends for the platform to be capable of integrating with all parts of a network ecosystem, including integrating with CLI and API technology for integration with authentication, cloud, controllers, orchestrators, DevOps and NetOps tools, inventory, ITSM, notifications and messaging, SD-WAN, security, and telemetry and analytics. This is through Itential's aggregated network API through which a user can monitor and control different IT systems.

Self-service

Itential also intends their platform to enable network teams to build automations using Itential's low-code, drag-and-drop automation studio for visual automation workflows. This is to allow network teams to build workflows using Itential's out-of-the-box collection of pre-built automations for simple and reusable network automation capabilities, and to allow users to publish network automation to network and IT teams for self-service automation with logging capability.

Itential's pre-built automations include automated services, such as:

  • Test IAP Connectivity
  • VLAN Configuration EOS
  • Ansible Port Turn Up
  • Push Bundles to GitLab
  • Aviatrix Create MCNA Transit
  • Aviatrix Transit Gateway Deployment
  • Forward Networks Intent Checks Verification
  • ServiceNow Incident Creation
  • JIRA Issue Creation
