Open Systems, the preeminent cybersecurity and networking provider for the enterprise cloud, today announced that it received second highest ratings in the just-released February 2021 Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer”: WAN Edge Infrastructure report. Gartner explains that “wide area network (WAN) edge infrastructure enables network connectivity from distributed enterprise locations to access resources in private and public data centers and the cloud.” The research and advisory firm recognized 10 vendors for the report.

Gartner Peer Insights reported that Open Systems’ customers assigned the company an overall rating of 4.9 on its 5.0 scale based on 14 reviews as of 31 December 2020. The overall rating is a measure of how satisfied existing customers are with a vendor’s product. Open Systems also was the only company in the report that received a “100% willingness to recommend” rating.

“We are proud to see that our customers shared with Gartner Peer Insights their high level of satisfaction with the Open Systems solution, as our company strives to deliver a cybersecurity experience beyond expectations,” said Open Systems CEO Jeff Brown. “Our 100% willingness-to-recommend rating also suggests that Open Systems customers are willing to stand behind their word, and turn into advocates.”

Here is a sampling of the Gartner Peer Insights user reviews which is the basis for the rankings:

Open Systems’ inclusion in this Gartner Peer Insights report comes in the wake of it being named a Sample Vendor in the secure access service edge (SASE) category in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Network Security, 2020 report, the Gartner Hype Cycle for Enterprise Networking, 2020 report and the Gartner Hype Cycle for Endpoint Security, 2020 report.
