CloudGenix provides software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) solutions, including its ION (Instant-On Network) platform and a Gen-2, application-defined SD-WAN that supports autonomous network behavior. The company characterizes network and application behavior in real time and uses data-science techniques to auto-correct application performance. CloudGenix says its SD-WAN delivers 50–70% cost savings and reports greater than 300% year-over-year growth with win-rates above 90% against incumbent vendors. Its customer base includes Fortune 1000 companies across healthcare, retail, manufacturing, finance, banking, hi-tech and hospitality, with deployments across six continents, hundreds of countries and tens of thousands of locations. CloudGenix highlights partnerships with security vendors (Palo Alto Networks, Symantec, Zscaler), cloud providers (Amazon, Microsoft), UCaaS providers (Microsoft, RingCentral, Fuze) and operational-tool vendors (PagerDuty, ServiceNow). The company plans to use new funding to fuel global sales, expand go-to-market efforts and continue building its product portfolio. CloudGenix provides SD-WAN solutions that enable customers to deploy cloud, unified communications, and data center applications to remote offices over broadband networks with security, removing the need for proprietary hardware routers and vendor lock-in. Administrators define application-specific policies for performance, security, and compliance that reflect business and IT intent. Its CloudGenix AppFabric enforces those application-specific policies in real time regardless of where applications are hosted — data center, cloud, or SaaS. The platform is designed to deliver consistent user experience across internet broadband, MPLS, and LTE. The company intends to use a recent investment to accelerate product development and go-to-market expansion. The announcement did not disclose revenue, user metrics, or other financial details.
