“Where DriveNets truly disrupts the CSPs’ space is with it’s separation of hardware and software, use of networking white boxes in the core of the networks and with its flat software pricing. This strong combination allows operators to break vendor lock-in, scale up capacity more cost effectively and grow their margins as they do.”

Sterling Perrin, Heavy Reading

“We are carrying 590 petabytes of every day. That’s a lot of traffic. And on our core backbone. Already over 50% of the traffic is running on an open disaggregated architecture where the network operating system was DriveNets.”

Yigal Elbaz, SVP Network/CTO,

“Open networking is gaining momentum again. The AT&T deal with DriveNets, Broadcom, and UfiSpace points to the fact that many service providers, including AT&T, want an unbundled solution.”

Scott Raynovich, Futorium

“AT&T is the only major operator who has endorsed, and actually deployed, a large-scale white-box-based network. The majority of that network is deploying on a 5G-related mission, but they also recently announced a transformation of their core to white-box clusters provided by DriveNets.”

Tom Nolle, CIMICorp

“Disaggregated solutions provide these features out of the box, no customization needed. Add to it the front-line support from the NOS vendor, disaggregated networks are much easier to operate and maintain, contrary to the mainstream opinion about such solutions.”

Ray Mota, CEO and Principal Analyst

“DriveNets Network Cloud has proven it can meet and even exceed the performance levels of proprietary hardware chassis routers.This new cloud architecture comes with added benefit of agility and flexibility and the opportunity for an open ecosystem.”

Roy Chua, Founder and Principal

“DriveNets’ recognition as the 2022 Private Company of the Year demonstrates the strong momentum of this shift and the key role that DriveNets plays in its adoption by Tier-1 operators.”

Sterling Perrin, Sr. Principal Analyst – Optical Networking & Transport

“DriveNets approach is unique as it combines whitebox switching and its own software. This will allow them to address the full list of cloud customers, including those who do white boxes.”

Alan Weckel, Founder and Technology Analyst

“DriveNets stood out in our research as having the strongest combination of innovation, maturity and proven high-scale deployment, supporting a wide range of use cases and network function. It is a forward-looking vendor that continues to develop and deploy solutions that allow service providers to evolve their networks to the cloud era.”

Ivan McPhee, Analyst

“The flexibility to deploy infrastructure using a building block approach. That means it can roll out one “pizza box” in a central office to support something like a small business network or as many as 48 in a cluster for a core switching node.”
