For the third year in a row, Verizon (News - Alert) Enterprise Solutions has received the Nemertes 2012 PilotHouse Awards, for its MPLS services and Ethernet leadership.

Nemertes PilotHouse awards are based on primary research through in-depth interviews with IT decision-makers, who rate their vendors based on real life experiences with them. These interviews are then augmented with a broad survey of IT decision-makers. Later, Nemertes issues PilotHouse recognizes those vendors and service providers that score top ratings in all categories.

In a statement, Martin Burvill, senior vice president of global operations for Verizon Enterprise Solutions, said, "The Nemertes PilotHouse Awards are particularly meaningful since our actual customers were surveyed for their experience. We've built our advanced global IP and Ethernet platforms on a winning recipe of advanced technology and a seamless service experience worldwide. Our Verizon Enterprise Center plays a key role enabling customers to engage with us -- on their own terms, in their own language and using their country's currency -- via an online portal to meet their provisioning, monitoring, reporting and trouble-shooting requirements 24 hours a day."

Verizon Enterprise Solutions powers industry-specific solutions and a full range of global wholesale offerings provided over the company's secure cloud strategic networking and advanced communications platforms, helping to open new opportunities around the world for innovation, investment and business transformation.
