What certifications does your team hold?

Our engineering team holds certifications from Cisco, Avaya, and Juniper — covering network engineering, IP telephony, and routing/switching. We've been deploying enterprise-grade infrastructure in AJK and Pakistan since 2012.

Do you work with clients outside AJK?

Yes. While we're based in Muzaffarabad, we serve clients across Pakistan. For software and ERP projects, we work remotely with clients anywhere. For physical infrastructure (CCTV, fire alarms, network cabling, barriers, biometrics), we primarily serve AJK and northern Pakistan, with project-based deployments elsewhere by arrangement.

What technology partners do you work with?

Wicom is partnered with or certified on Acer, Bosch, Cisco, Dell, D-Link, Hikvision, HP, Intel, Samsung, TP-Link, Ubiquiti, Linksys, and YahClick for VSAT satellite internet. For fire protection we partner with NAFFCO, Global Fire Equipment, and NFPA. For biometrics we partner with Anviz, for barriers and parking with SEWO, and for surveillance with TVT, IVY Networks, and CP Plus. We're vendor-independent in our design approach — we recommend the right technology for your needs.

Do you offer maintenance and support after installation?

Yes — maintenance and servicing is a core part of our business. We offer annual maintenance contracts (AMCs) and support contracts covering preventive servicing, camera cleaning, equipment calibration, firmware updates, priority break/fix response, and 24/7 monitoring where applicable. We service CCTV, networking, fire alarm, access control, biometric, barrier, and VSAT equipment — including systems we didn't originally install. We also provide training so your team can operate the systems we install.

Can you upgrade our existing CCTV or network infrastructure?

Yes. We handle legacy-to-modern migrations — converting analogue CCTV to IP, migrating TDM telephony to VoIP, modernizing networks, and augmenting existing systems with AI video analytics or IoT sensor monitoring where it adds value. We design migrations with parallel old/new operation to ensure zero downtime during transition.

Which is better for SME in Pakistan: Cisco or Ubiquiti?

For most Pakistani SMEs (under 200 employees, single or few sites), Ubiquiti UniFi is the better choice. It offers free cloud management, no licensing fees, sufficient PoE for IP phones and cameras, and reliable performance at 30–50% of Cisco's cost. Choose Cisco if you need enterprise features like StackWise-1T, Cisco ISE (802.1X NAC), Catalyst Center AIOps, or global compliance certifications.

Is Juniper better than Cisco in Pakistan?

Juniper is better for carrier and ISP deployments — it's Pakistan's leading Juniper MX provider for carrier-grade backbones. Cisco is better for enterprise campus and data center. For SMEs, neither Juniper nor Cisco is cost-optimal — Ubiquiti is the right choice. We're vendor-independent and deploy all three based on your needs.

Do you support multi-vendor networks in Pakistan?

Yes. We're vendor-independent in our design approach — we work with Cisco, Juniper, Ubiquiti, TP-Link, D-Link, and others. We recommend the right technology for your needs, not the one we're incentivized to sell. We also remediate and maintain existing multi-vendor networks we didn't originally install.

Which networking vendor has the best support in AJK?

Wicom provides local support for all three vendors in AJK. Cisco has the strongest official partner ecosystem nationally, but physical presence in AJK is limited. Ubiquiti is easiest to support locally due to no certification requirements and wide availability. Juniper has the fewest partners in AJK. We provide vendor-independent support regardless of which platform you choose.

Verdict

Which should you choose?

Our vendor-independent recommendation based on deployment experience in Pakistan.

Cisco Catalyst

The enterprise standard. Highest cost but best ecosystem, support, and feature depth. Choose Cisco for large campuses, data centers, and organizations needing global compliance.

Best for

Large enterprises, data centers, organizations needing global compliance and the deepest feature set.

Juniper EX/MX

The carrier-grade choice. Juniper MX is Pakistan's leading carrier routing platform. Choose Juniper for ISP backbones, data center fabrics, and AI-driven campus (Mist).

Best for

ISPs, carriers, data center spine-leaf, and organizations wanting AI-driven campus management (Mist).

Ubiquiti UniFi

The SME champion. Best price-performance, free cloud management, no licensing fees. Choose Ubiquiti for SMEs, small campuses, and budget-conscious deployments where enterprise features aren't needed.

Best for

SMEs, small offices, schools, and budget-conscious deployments needing reliable networking without enterprise licensing costs.

Pakistan Context

Pakistan-specific considerations

Factors that matter specifically in the Pakistani market.

Cisco has the strongest partner ecosystem in Pakistan — multiple certified partners in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad. RMA and TAC support are well-established.

Juniper has fewer certified partners in Pakistan but is the leading carrier-grade platform for ISPs. New Technologies (newtechpk.com) is a leading Juniper MX provider with 30+ ISP deployments.

Ubiquiti has no formal certification requirement and is widely available through Pakistani distributors. Support is community-based with limited official RMA — budget for spare units.

For AJK and northern Pakistan: Cisco and Ubiquiti are the most practical choices. Juniper partner presence in AJK is limited. Wicom is vendor-independent — we deploy and support all three.

SD-WAN is increasingly important in Pakistan for multi-site businesses. Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela) is the enterprise standard; Ubiquiti offers basic VPN-based SD-WAN; Juniper Session Smart Router is the carrier alternative.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) budget matters for deployments with IP phones, WiFi 6 access points, and IP cameras — all common in Pakistan. Cisco and Juniper offer higher PoE budgets; Ubiquiti is sufficient for most SME needs.
