Bring In The New
What a time to be a networking newcomer. Networking startups are making a name for themselves by starting at the edge, harnessing new kinds of connectivity and leading with a hybrid cloud approach. Not to mention they are all about embracing the new ways that businesses are looking to buy IT, including subscription-based services.
Networking startups are bursting onto the scene and giving some of the largest vendors a run for their money. Still, there’s room for even the market incumbents to partner with these startups. Networking and SD-WAN companies such as Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, and Versa Networks are choosing to team with startups because of their fresh takes on private 5G, managed networking offerings and next-generation connectivity options. Meanwhile, some startups are filling holes in the market around consumption-based or managed network offerings, as well as edge networking, next-generation data center networking and Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE. One thing that the incumbents and market newcomers have in common? They recognize the power of the channel and are tapping MSPs and resellers for help getting the word out on the new ways to handle networking requirements.
From those specializing in hybrid cloud-based offerings and Networking as a Service to cellular connectivity and 5G, here 10 of the hottest networking startups of 2022.
