Computer Technology Review Honors Versa Networks’ VOS™ (Formerly FlexVNF) Software With Most Valuable Product (MVP) of 2016 Award

CTR’s Editorial Panel Judged Versa VOS™ (formerly FlexVNF) on Product Innovation, Functionality and Affordability

Santa Clara, Calif., January 18, 2016

Versa Networks, a networking and security startup providing next-generation WAN and branch solutions for service providers and enterprises, today announced that it has received a coveted Most Valuable Product (MVP) for 2016 award in the Networking category from Computer Technology Review for its Versa VOS™ (formerly FlexVNF) software.

As one of a select number of notable IT companies receiving CTR’s MVP award, Versa Networks’ VOS™ (formerly FlexVNF) software was honored by CTR’s editorial panel based on rigorous judging criteria that included product innovation, functionality and affordability.

“The need for greater service agility, versatility and reduced costs has really increased awareness of, and demand for, evolving networking from a hardware- to a software centric approach,” said Mark Weiner, CMO at Versa Networks. “Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) in particular is seeing real traction, and today’s award win reinforces the momentum we’re seeing in the marketplace. Virtual CPE (vCPE) and branch security is also seeing an uptick based on last year’s slew of corporate and government breaches. I firmly believe we are well positioned to take advantage of these growing markets in 2016.”

Computer Technology Review has been covering the best of IT since 1981 and is a respected editorial authority in the IT industry. The publication covers everything from IT security, cloud and virtualization to data storage, data protection and networking.
