What we do

Internet and networking built for schools

Internet access

E-Rate eligible

High-speed, symmetrical fiber built for schools. Consistent performance whether one student or a thousand are online, with DDoS protection included on every circuit.

Managed security

E-Rate eligible

Firewall management, threat monitoring, and incident response delivered as a service. Your network protected around the clock, without adding headcount.

Wide Area Networking (WAN)

E-Rate eligible

Connect every building in your district on a single managed network. We design, deploy, and manage the WAN. You just use it.

Content filtering & advanced DDoS

Extended protection for districts that need it. Managed content filtering and acceptable-use enforcement via Fortinet FortiGate, plus advanced DDoS coverage for operators with their own IP space.

E-Rate can cover up to 90% of eligible service costs. We respond to your bid, deliver the service, and handle billing and compliance so your discount is reflected from day one.

I am very satisfied with EM3 Networks. I have worked with Travis for several years. EM3 also does their own monitoring of our connections and if something goes down we get alerted right away. They will then work closely with the carrier to get the issue resolved. Overall, I would highly recommend EM3 Networks services.

Great service like this in times of need are what make me choose certain vendors over others. I will forever be grateful for you guys helping get us going in such a dire time of need for our district. Other vendors I work with were unreachable and not willing to help get me going like EM3. Please know that it didn't go unnoticed.

Everyone I have dealt with at EM3 is helpful and courteous and it is a pleasure to work with their experienced team. Their billing matched their proposed price and we paid no special fees that were not shown on the proposal. EM3 Networks provisioning and installation was done professionally and on time; the transition was seamless and the EM3 Billing Manager is friendly and helpful!

EM3 Networks delivered a carrier class network without the hassle of dealing with the carrier. They handled everything on our behalf and made our job easier!

Rudy

EM3 Networks understands USAC and the billing process. The staff is highly skilled at what they do and they are considered as a member of our team. Understanding that outages are unavoidable sometimes, we were super pleased with EM3's proactive NOC. The hold times are brief, and we are always notified in a timely manner.

EM3 Networks' bill is easy to understand and they show us our E-Rate credits on each statement. They also provide us with helpful bandwidth utilization reports so we can better manage our network.

E-Rate
Your mission is education. But more and more, that mission runs on bandwidth, and the E-Rate program that could fund it comes with billing rules, discount calculations, and documentation requirements most districts weren't built to manage alone. EM3 exists to simplify this for you.
