Overview
About
Principle Networks is a managed services provider based at The Stanley Building, 7 Pancras Square, London, N1C 4AG, in the King's Cross area of central London. The company was founded in 2018, making it one of the younger providers on this list with around eight years of trading history. It employs between 10 and 49 people. Its chief executive is Russell Crowley. The company's published services are SD-WAN, networking and Wi-Fi, managed IT, IT consulting, identity management, and cybersecurity. Its vendor partners are Zscaler, Okta, Microsoft, Meraki, Google, and Fortinet. It can be contacted on +44 333 0124 003, and its website is principle-networks.com. A check of the company's site and public listings turned up no verifiable social media accounts. The Pancras Square address is part of the redeveloped King's Cross district, now a major office quarter. Being founded in 2018 means Principle Networks was built from the start around cloud and modern security ideas rather than having to migrate away from older ways of working. A team of 10 to 49 people keeps the company focused and personal, with clients likely to deal directly with senior engineers. The service list shows a clear specialty: networks and security, rather than trying to cover every area of IT.
Principle's SD-WAN service covers software-defined wide area networking, which manages how a company's offices and cloud services connect over the internet, choosing the best path for traffic and keeping connections up if one link fails. Networking and Wi-Fi covers the design and running of office networks, including wireless coverage that actually works across the building. Managed IT is the ongoing arrangement where Principle looks after a client's systems day to day. IT consulting covers advisory work such as network design and security reviews. Identity management covers user accounts, logins, and multi-factor authentication, making sure only the right people can reach company systems. Cybersecurity covers the defenses around all of this, from firewalls to monitoring. Its partners match the specialty: Zscaler for cloud security, Okta for identity management, Fortinet for firewalls, Meraki for cloud-managed networking hardware, Microsoft for cloud and productivity platforms, and Google for cloud services. For clients, a focused provider like Principle suits businesses whose main IT concern is getting the network and security right, with one team responsible for the connections between offices, staff, and cloud. The phone number +44 333 0124 003 and principle-networks.com are the published contact routes.
Okta, one of Principle's partners, is a specialist in identity and access management: single sign-on so staff log in once to reach many applications, plus multi-factor authentication to protect those logins. Meraki, Cisco's cloud-managed line, provides switches, wireless access points, and security appliances managed through a central dashboard, which suits businesses with more than one site. Zscaler handles cloud-delivered security, Fortinet provides firewalls, Microsoft supplies the cloud and productivity platforms, and Google provides cloud services. For a network-focused provider, this partner set covers every layer a client needs: the identity of who connects, the network they connect through, and the security wrapped around both.
