MUMBAI, India, March 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tata Communications, a global 
digital ecosystem enabler, continues to be recognised as a 'Leader' by Gartner 
Magic Quadrant, for Network Services, Global, for the ninth year consecutively. 
The Gartner Magic Quadrant assessed Tata Communications on completeness of 
vision and ability to execute. 

"We are happy to have lived up to our customers expectations and proactively 
help manage their emerging needs especially in these times," said, Genius Wong, 
Chief Technology Officer, Tata Communications. "We humbly accept the 
recognition of a Leader for the ninth year in a row. Over the last year, we 
have made huge strides in developing solutions befitting the future needs of 
enterprises' global success, through constant progress, resilience and 
innovation. Our Tier-1 global network has been the network-of-choice for 
enabling businesses deliver value to their stakeholders with agility and 
seamless connectivity for all their solutions across managed services, hybrid 
WAN or multi-vendor platforms. We remain committed and focused on delivering 
superior customer experiences, and are grateful to our customers and partners 
for their trust, in us and our network."

During the course of the year, Tata Communications has made enhancements to the 
network, enabling enterprises become more resilient and secure for future 
contingencies by providing:-

Access to business apps on-premises and in the clouds, anywhere access with 
security and end-to-end network performance.
Direct connectivity to nine of the world's major cloud providers with Tata 
Communications cloud connectivity service. 
Additional network capacity on a pay-as-you-go model with 'Bandwidth-on-Demand' 
to meet short term needs conveniently through a self-service customer portal.
According to the report, Gartner, Magic Quadrant for Network Services, Global, 
Neil Rickard, Bjarne Munch, Danellie Young, Karen Brown, 21 February 2022, 
"Most global network service providers are continuing to move toward a more 
platform-based approach using a software-driven, as-a-service model, with 
increasing levels of visibility and self-service via portals and APIs". Gartner 
further says, "Gartner continues to observe changes in enterprise requirements 
and buying criteria for global networks. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted 
the true value of agility for enterprise networks, as enterprises have had to 
rapidly change working practices, accelerate digital and cloud transformations, 
and cope with rapidly changing business circumstances. Organizations adopting 
flexible networking technologies (such as NOD) and flexible sourcing approaches 
(such as bring your own [BYO] access) have been much better able to support the 
rapid accommodation of new endpoints and new applications (including cloud 
services and IoT), and have done so while controlling their WAN expenditure."
