Only Vendor to Receive the Highest Ranking in
Three of the Five Use Cases in Critical Capabilities Report
Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company (NYSE: HPE), today
announced that for the sixteenth year, HPE (Aruba) has been
positioned in the Leaders quadrant in Gartner Inc.’s latest “Magic
Quadrant for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure.”1
Additionally, in the companion “Critical Capabilities for
Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure” report, Aruba
received the highest scores in three of the five use cases – more
than any other vendor.
Complimentary copies of the Gartner Magic Quadrant and Critical
Capabilities reports for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN
Infrastructure are available here.
Gartner evaluates vendors included in the Magic Quadrant based
on two primary criteria: completeness of vision and ability to
execute. In both categories, Gartner continues to recognize Aruba
as a Leader.
In the companion Critical Capabilities report, Gartner evaluated
vendor effectiveness in addressing an organization’s needs in five
key use cases: Unified Wired and WLAN Access, WLAN-only Refresh/New
Build, Wired-only Refresh/New build, Remote Branch Office with
Corporate HQ, and Hands-off NetOps. Aruba is the only vendor who
received the highest ranking in three of these use cases.
“Only two companies have been able to maintain a Leaders
Quadrant position for 16 years running and Aruba is proud to be one
of them,” said David Hughes, chief product and technology officer
at Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company. “Our ‘customer
first, customer last’ philosophy, which has been ingrained in our
processes, people, and culture over many years, is a key reason
customers continue to look to Aruba and why we believe Gartner
continues to recognize us as a Leader. As we continue innovating
with Aruba ESP and embrace everything as-a-Service initiatives, we
believe enterprises will continue to see the value and ROI inherent
in Aruba’s solutions, and will be encouraged by our consistent,
long-term position as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for
Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure.”
Gartner has also recognized HPE (Aruba) consistently for other
components of its industry-leading portfolio. In September 2021,
HPE (Aruba and Silver Peak) was named a Leader in the 2021 Gartner
Magic Quadrant for WAN Edge Infrastructure, marking the fourth year
in a row that HPE (Aruba and Silver Peak) has been positioned in
the Leaders Quadrant. In addition, HPE (Aruba) was named a May 2021
Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Wired and Wireless LAN
Access Infrastructure; Silver Peak was named a February 2021
Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for WAN Edge
Infrastructure; and HPE (Aruba) was named an October 2020 Gartner
Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Network Access Control.
