Extreme Networks announced for the first time it has been positioned as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wired and Wireless LAN Access Infrastructure after the company appeared as a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wired and Wireless LAN Access Infrastructure for three consecutive years.
Ed Meyercord, President and CEO at Extreme Networks said “We feel that Extreme Networks’ entrance into the Leaders quadrant as a vendor offering wired and wireless LAN access infrastructure is a true milestone. To us, it is an honor to be recognized by a source like Gartner in its Magic Quadrant. It is our fifth consecutive year appearing in this reference guide for our customers and partners.”
According to Gartner, “A vendor in the Leaders quadrant will have demonstrated an ability to fulfill a broad variety of customer requirements through the breadth of its access layer product family. Leaders will have the ability to shape the market and provide complete and differentiating access layer applications, as well as global service and support. Leaders should have demonstrated the ability to maintain strong relationships with their channels and customers, and have no obvious gaps in their portfolios.”
