Versa, a global leader in unified networking and security, has been named a Leader and Outperformer in the 2025 GigaOm Radar Report for Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) Solutions. This marks the second consecutive year Versa Secure SD-WAN has achieved top recognition, evaluated among 31 SD-WAN solutions across a comprehensive set of criteria.

Versa has now been recognized as a Leader and Outperformer in all three of GigaOm’s most recent SASE-related reports. In May, Versa was named a Leader and Outperformer in the GigaOm Radar Report for Security Service Edge (SSE), and in February, it received the same designation in the GigaOm Radar Report for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE).

Business Value with Built-In Security

Versa Secure SD-WAN, part of the integrated VersaONE Universal SASE Platform, earned 5-star ratings for its Integrated ZTNA, Intent-based Networking, SSE/SASE Migration Path, Flexibility, Interoperability, Manageability, Observability, Scalability, and Support. Versa scored highest among all 31 vendors in the report’s Business Criteria Comparison and ranked second in the Emerging Features Comparison. The report highlighted Versa’s next-generation security, noting it “integrates microsegmentation across the entire network infrastructure, including IoT and corporate user traffic” and combines “next-generation firewall, intrusion prevention, and unified threat management capabilities within a single operating system, eliminating the need for traditional security appliance sprawl.”

Continuous Innovation Cycles

Versa is recognized as a Leader for its high scores across evaluated decision criteria. In the GigaOm Radar summary matrix, Versa Secure SD-WAN appears in the Innovation/Platform Play quadrant, showcasing capabilities such as AI/ML-driven traffic optimization, cloud-native SD-WAN architectures, SASE convergence, and intelligent application steering through a fully integrated platform designed for continuous evolution.

GigaOm also highlighted Versa as an “Outperformer,” citing industry-first Sovereign SASE capabilities, rapid AI integration, continuous innovation cycles, and Universal SASE platform expansion ahead of market trends.

“We are proud to continue to be recognized as an industry leader across GigaOm’s three SASE Radar reports,” said Dan Maier, Versa’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Being named a Leader and Outperformer in SD-WAN for the second year in a row, along with top recognition in SSE and SASE, underscores that Versa delivers a fully integrated, AI-powered SASE platform that provides security and networking without compromise.”
