Aruba and Gartner WLAN Magic Quadrant
Aruba has again made progress in the Gartner WLAN Magic Quadrant, moving well to the right of Cisco on the visionary axis and nearly reaching parity on the execution axis in the "Leaders" quadrant of the "Magic Quadrant for Wireless LAN Infrastructure 2011."

The 2011 Magic Quadrant notes, "The expectations of wireless connectivity continue to grow, as workers in remote offices visit the headquarters, and where newer employees look at wired connectivity not only as legacy, but even archaic, technology." It further says, "Momentum continues to grow for a single vendor at the edge of the network capable of providing switches and access points, as well as differentiating network services that will consolidate security and management and provide a better and more-cohesive end-user experience."
The Magic Quadrant evaluates vendors based on two criteria, "ability to execute" and "completeness of vision". It includes a summary view of each vendor, as well as an assessment of vendor "strengths" and "cautions".
“Aruba believes its placement in the Leaders quadrant of the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wireless LAN Infrastructure is affirmation of our position in the market and the efficacy of our unique, mobility-centric approach to access networking,” said Dominic Orr, president and CEO of Aruba. “The next generation of access networks will be driven by the increasingly mobile workforce, the proliferation of smartphones and tablets and the continued virtualization of computing resources. The LAN is dead.”
Broadview Networks is a reseller of Aruba Networks. Contact us today for more information.
