SAN FRANCISCO – April 16, 2020 – Kentik®, provider of the only AIOps platform specifically for network professionals, today announced it is named a Representative Vendor in the Gartner Market Guide for Network Performance Monitoring and Diagnostics1 (NPMD). Gartner notes, “Infrastructure and operations leaders should rethink ways to monitor the network.”
“Hybrid networks, from the edge to data centers, cloud and on-prem, are the new normal, and Kentik is uniquely positioned to help businesses run their networks, wherever they may be, especially now during COVID-19,” said Avi Freedman, co-founder and CEO of Kentik. “We believe Gartner’s analysis validates the market’s need for the Kentik Platform and matches the demand we’re seeing as enterprises globally require real-time visibility, insights and automation to tackle today’s dynamic and complex networks.”
In the Market Guide for NPMD, Gartner includes in its list of recommendations, “Future-proof network monitoring by investing in network performance monitoring and diagnostics tools that provide the required level of visibility in hybrid environments, including edge network and cloud network monitoring.”
