Techopedia Explains Enterprise Certified Netware Engineer

ECNE and other certifications are based on proper use of Novell technologies. Known for pioneering server technology in the 1980s, Novell is a tech company known for acquiring rights to the Unix operating system and developing various Linux-related products.

In general, the ECNE and related certifications vouch for an individual’s knowledge of Netware and similar technologies. The MCNE requires a preliminary Certified Novell Engineer (CNE) certification. In CNE/MCNE certifications, use of the Netware and Novell terms is confusing in that the more inclusive Novell designation now used more often.
