Leader and Outperformer in GigaOm Radar
Versa is positioned as a Leader based on high scores across the decision criteria evaluated in this report. In the GigaOm Radar summary matrix, Versa appears in the Maturity/Platform Play quadrant, signifying that a vendor “has a well-established, fully integrated platform – usually built from the ground up – with a wide breadth of mature networking and security capabilities integrated at functional and management levels” and provides “comprehensive security and networking features with cutting-edge features, deep specialization in specific areas, and the agility to adopt innovations quickly.”
The report also highlights Versa as an industry “Outperformer,” attributing this recognition to “its rapid pace of innovation and market leadership in the unified SASE space. It consistently introduces industry-first capabilities while maintaining its position as a market share leader.”
“We are extremely pleased to be recognized as a SASE industry leader in GigaOm’s Radar report,” said Dan Maier, Versa’s Chief Marketing Officer. “It reflects Versa’s hard work and deep commitment to serving our enterprise and service provider customers by delivering innovative, adaptive SASE that supports global connectivity, enhances security at every edge, and reduces complexity.”
T-Mobile SASE Integrates with Versa
The report also reviews T-Mobile SASE, a SIM-based wireless SASE solution offering a 5G Standalone (SA) network slice dedicated to SASE traffic. A key component of T-Mobile SASE is T-SIMsecure, developed with Versa Networks, for clientless authentication using the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) and International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI). Key differentiators of T-Mobile SASE include improved latency and faster speeds compared to Wi-Fi, LTE, and 5G non-standalone networks, automatic device authorization through SIM cards, and compatibility with devices that can’t support traditional SASE software.
