ThousandEyes Recognized for Addressing “A Perennial But Completely
Evolved Networking Challenge from a Fresh and Innovative Perspective”

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ThousandEyes, the company that delivers visibility into the Internet and
digital experiences, today announced it has been awarded the inaugural 2019
Editors Innovation Award by Networking Computing at their annual
awards ceremony in London. The
Network Computing Awards, which have been presented annually since
2007, recognize the solutions and solution providers that have helped
organizations excel by getting the most out of their networks.

“As Editor of Network Computing and in my other freelance and business
mentoring work, I see things that really excite me as an engineer, a
businessman and technology journalist,” said Ray Smyth, Editor, Network
Computing. “My work on the magazine and meetings with vendors exposes me
to a lot, all of it interesting, some of it evolutionary and some
game-changing. But just being clever, new or bleeding edge is one thing:
being truly innovative in design, purpose, application and results, is
another. I wanted to recognise such innovation and now do so in the form
of the new Network Computing Editors Innovation award.”

Smyth continued, “The 2019 inaugural winner ThousandEyes has approached
a perennial but completely evolved networking challenge from a fresh and
innovative perspective. Importantly, they had realised that all aspects
of the network had radically changed. ThousandEyes is digitally native
and works at the coalface of modern networking: the network that has no
boundary, is ever changing and where dependencies for all delivered
services rests firmly on things that have until now, been to many of us,
unknown, difficult to monitor and hard to challenge.”

“Even the on-premises served applications may need this visibility if
they are to be stable and easy to manage because they all make
cloud-based service calls,” Smyth added. “The fact that networks are now
borderless is no surprise, but it’s not possible to map your network and
all its connections unless you can do it in near real-time, because
elements of network connectivity are changing frequently and in seconds,
and this can affect just about everything, everywhere. I am extremely
impressed with ThousandEyes: it is far more than network monitoring and
its potential is breathtaking. I will watch their progress with great
interest.”

This award win is the latest in a series of positive product award
momentum for ThousandEyes in recent months, following the inclusion
in Credit Suisse AG’s inaugural Disruptive Technology Recognition Program
and recognition
by the SaaS Awards for Best Data-Driven SaaS Product. ThousandEyes
has also been recognized over the last year by the TechWorld Techies,
SIIA CODiEs, Interop ITX, Interop Japan, the Cloud Industry Forum and
Computing magazine’s Cloud Excellence awards.
