F5 recognised in Leaders Quadrant of SSL VPN Magic Quadrant

F5 Networks Inc. has announced that it is positioned in the Leaders quadrant of Gartner, Inc.'s Magic Quadrant for SSL VPNs, published in December 2011.

Anil Pochiraju, MD, F5 Networks India said, "As organizations look to further support the demands of mobile workers, F5's BIG-IP Access Policy Manager and Edge Gateway solutions help IT teams combine flexible access services with optimization capabilities-meaning users enjoy seamless access without compromising security. In addition, we've continued to enhance support for Apple iOS and Android platforms to help keep users connected regardless of location or device type. We believe our placement in the Leaders quadrant reflects the differentiated value that F5 delivers to the market, including the performance advantages provided by our unique iApps and iRules technologies."

According to Gartner, "Leaders demonstrate balanced progress and effort on all execution and vision categories. Their actions raise the competitive bar for all products in the market, and they can change the course of the industry. To remain in the Leaders quadrant, these vendors must excel in mobile access and protection and dominate in sales. A leading vendor is not a default choice for every buyer, and clients are warned not to assume that they should buy only from the Leaders quadrant. To stay on the right side of the chart, Leaders (and Visionaries) must follow courses that are competitively disruptive, and not only are ahead of the curve, but also offer features that remove significant roadblocks to vendor sales and buyer implementations. One example of a competitively disruptive activity might include delivering a superior smartphone client in terms of capability, user experience, and user adoption that could significantly stimulate new smartphone VPN deployments."
