WE’RE 99.999% DELIGHTED THAT GARTNER HAS NAMED US AS A LEADER IN THE GARTNER 2022 MAGIC QUADRANT FOR NETWORK SERVICES, GLOBAL FOR THE FOURTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR.

FOUR YEARS IN A ROW – DOES THAT MAKE US A QUADRUPLE MAGIC QUADRANT LEADER?

 

As the demands on networks increase, businesses need to be prepared. Your network has to deliver seamlessly and securely. Using our fixed, 4G and 5G always-on connectivity, you can deliver high-quality digital experiences whenever and wherever you need them.

There are plenty of other things that will make us your network partner of choice for any kind of digital experience, whether it’s migrating data to the cloud, creating a multi-cloud strategy, using IoT to create enhanced experience or pushing boundaries with multi-access edge computing (MEC).

We’re looking forward to delivering on our plan to roll out Super PoPs this year, which will deliver network on demand (NOD), SD-WAN gateways, SASE enforcement and NFV services. These will be supported by a single set of service levels and managed through a single portal.

And our customers are very happy, with NPS scores for service levels at 80+. and over 70% of the Fortune 500 reaping the benefits of our always-on connectivity.

Let’s go back to what Gartner says about being a Leader in the Magic Quadrant:

“Providers in the Leaders quadrant are performing well and maintaining a stable organization, with a clear vision of market direction. They deliver comprehensive portfolios of quality network services across broad geographies. They address the global networking needs of a broad range of enterprises in terms of size, geographic distribution and vertical industry. Leaders shape the direction of the market by extending their coverage, developing new class-leading capabilities and commercial models, and deploying them at scale.”

I believe our Leader position in the Magic Quadrant underpinned by our partnerships with technology leaders make us the perfect choice for customers who are looking for the right combination of SD-WAN overlay and internet underlay services. We are positioned to provide a mix of mobile and fixed connectivity, so our customers are always-on. You need an ultra-reliable always-on network that can supply crucial digital services all around the world. That’s what we deliver. Everyday, we help businesses transform their enterprise networks, helping them become more agile and accelerating their cloud and digital transformation.
