DPIT: Stop Calling 1-800-GO-POUND-SAND w/Clinton Devereaux & Jeffrey Armstrong from Airespring
DPIT, Monday, August 25th, 2025
What happens when IT leaders stop accepting 'we're better because we suck less' from internet providers?
At Airespring, Jeffrey Armstrong (Director of Solutions) and Clinton Devereaux (Solutions Engineering) have spent 22 years perfecting network aggregation-turning the nightmare of managing multiple carriers into strategic competitive advantage.
From consolidating 50+ monthly bills into single invoices to building resilient networks that actually stay connected, Jeff and Clinton reveal how smart IT leaders are escaping the '1-800-GO-POUND-SAND' support experience.
They discuss the hidden costs of reactive network management, why POTS line pricing is about to explode (some California markets hitting $300/line), and how Trinity Healthcare saved $1.63 million while 10x-ing their network performance through strategic SD-WAN migration.
Jeff and Clinton also share insights on building networks with path protection using disparate technologies (fiber, coax, LTE, Starlink), the forensics visibility that prevents performance problems, and why 'anybody can sell internet, but staying connected is what matters.'
