Nile is named a Visionary by Gartner® in the 2025 Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure

The Gartner Magic Quadrant evaluates vendors based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute. Nile’s placement as a Visionary underscores its mission to eliminate complexity, improve security, and deliver a consumption-based model for enterprise networks that reduces operational burden and total cost of ownership.

Gartner commented: “The need to reduce manual work in enterprise LANs is driving demand for AI networking and network as a service. As demand for automated and adaptive security grows, infrastructure and operations leaders should use this research to make investment decisions across campus, branch and remote locations.”

“We are proud to be recognized as a Visionary by Gartner in our first year of inclusion,” said Pankaj Patel, CEO and co-founder of Nile. “This recognition, we believe, validates our core belief that enterprise networking must evolve beyond hardware-centric complexity. Nile’s platform reimagines the wired and wireless LAN with AI-powered automation, built-in security, and a service experience that is purpose-built for the expectations of today’s cloud-first enterprises.”

This comes at a time when organizations are shifting away from legacy wired and wireless LAN architectures that depend on manual interaction, complex security layers, and highly specialized IT resources to configure and manage them. According to Gartner, by 2028, on-premises networking-as-a-service (NaaS) will be adopted by 15% of all enterprises, which is an increase from less than 2% in 2024.

Patel added, “Nile was founded to deliver an enterprise-class wired and wireless LAN that just works and is free from the complexity and fragility that have defined legacy networks for decades. The strong customer momentum we’re seeing affirms our vision and keeps us on track to achieve our key milestones.”

Nile’s architecture combines modern network and security principles to deliver zero trust access and AI-powered automation. It also provides a unique, financially-backed performance guarantee that emphasizes more than just uptime. Nile ensures that every network meets stringent capacity, coverage, and availability experience metrics, all delivered within a visionary NaaS model that lowers operating costs and aligns with organizational scalability and productivity goals.
