Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR) announced today that it has been named a 2018 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Data Center Networking. Gartner defines Data Center Networking vendors as those providing hardware and/or software solutions that deliver connectivity primarily within enterprise data centers. The Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction is based on feedback and ratings from end-user professionals who have experience purchasing, implementing and/or using the product or service.

Extreme Networks Agile Data Center™ solutions are optimized to enable enterprise and cloud organizations to achieve greater operational agility and efficiency for increased competitive advantage. Users praised our turnkey offerings, our customer service, our cost-effectiveness and commitment to delivering positive business outcomes in the latest Peer Insights ranking.
