Gartner Positions Enterasys and Siemens in Wireless LAN

Gartner Positions Enterasys and Siemens Enterprise Communications in Wireless LAN Magic Quadrant.

Enterasys and Siemens Enterprise Communications announced the company was positioned in the visionaries quadrant in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wireless LAN Infrastructure 2008 report (Gartner ID Number G00163188).

According to the report, "A vendor in the Visionaries quadrant demonstrates an ability to increase features in its offering to provide a unique and differentiated approach to the market. A visionary will have innovated in one or more of the key areas of WLAN technologies (convergence, security, management or operational efficiency)."

"Differences in WLAN architecture, enhanced security and management features separate the offerings from each vendor," the report said. Moreover, "Although WLAN vendors continue to innovate more rapidly on the technology front, the traditional wired infrastructure vendors are marketing increasingly compelling arguments for combined application services such as management of wired and wireless networks."

Published 26 November 2008, the Gartner report said, "While all vendors continue to support basic end-user connectivity, additional requirements for security, management, voice capabilities, and integration with management or security appliances continue to drive vendor selections."

"We are pleased by our positioning in Gartner's Magic Quadrant and believe that this is confirmation that our convergence, security, management and operational efficiency are fundamental strengths," said Chris Crowell, Enterasys EVP Operations and CTO. "Capital savings can result from competing the combined wired and wireless business between multiple vendors in a challenging economic environment. Our integrated switching, management software, and security across wired and wireless networks enable IT to complete their projects on-time within the constraints of a reduced budget."
