Past Students Comments

"Tony is awesome. If you have multiple techs at your site who are interested, he will come along and do a training class on your site, using your network as the example. He doesn't bring prepared packet captures along. His teaching is very fluid and very interactive. And as an added bonus he's hella of a funny guy." Mordac

"You really saved me on this one. Between this analyzer and you teaching me how to chart with Excel years ago, the Server Farm Citrix team now can see their issue." J James, Altanta

"I have met many knowledgeable people and I have met many people who think they are smart, but I have never met anyone that can deliver the material.  Whether you are a novice or an expert, you understand what is being said and leave with a better understanding. I had a good time and look forward to the next time." S Ladouceur, Ottawa, Ontario
