Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinctions recognize vendors and products that are highly rated by their customers. The data Gartner collects represents a synthesis of vendor software products most valued by IT Enterprise professionals. To be recognized, a vendor must have at least 50 verified reviews with an average rating of 4.2 stars or higher (out of 5.0 stars).
“Customers rely on CloudGenix as a trusted partner to help them navigate changing work and business conditions. The network is more critical than ever to ensure companies and people thrive. There is no higher praise than that from customers. We think our being named a Customers’ Choice represents our relentless commitment to the success of our customers as they transform the branch and eliminate the need for branch hardware and move security, collaboration, performance management and visibility to the cloud. We are grateful for the feedback they have shared on Gartner Peer Insights,” said Kumar Ramachandran, founder and CEO at CloudGenix.
According to Gartner, WAN Edge Infrastructure enables “network connectivity from distributed enterprise locations to access resources in both private and public data centers as well as cloud (as a service). It is typically procured by senior networking leaders within an infrastructure and operations (I&O) organization. This market has evolved from traditional branch routers (often called “customer edge routers” in a Multiprotocol Label Switching [MPLS] implementation) and is undergoing dramatic change, driven by the needs of digital business transformation and the demands of line-of-business managers. The market for branch office wide-area network functionality is shifting from dedicated routing, security and WAN optimization appliances to feature-rich SD-WAN and vCPE platforms. WAN edge infrastructure now incorporates a widening set of network functions, including secure routers, firewalls, SD-WAN, WAN path control and WAN optimization, along with traditional routing functionality.”
Customer Review Quotes
Customers reviewed CloudGenix for evaluation and contracting, integration and deployment, service and support, and product capabilities for CloudGenix SD-WAN:
The SD-WAN market is at an important inflection point: Enterprises have moved beyond early Gen1 product adoption and are now looking for SD-WAN that meets a new set of requirements for 2020 and beyond.

CloudGenix Autonomous SD-WAN uses global intelligence to deliver performance and security SLAs for all applications over any WAN-type.
