2022 Gartner Customers' Choice for Network Firewalls

[Shenzhen, China, May 19, 2022] Recently, Huawei firewalls were named a "Customers' Choice" in the 2022 Gartner Peer Insights "Voice of the Customer: Network Firewalls" report. We think this signifies how highly the products are regarded by global customers for their excellent quality and comprehensive services. In the report, Huawei received an overall rating of 4.9/5 stars again this year, scoring highest among all recognised vendors worldwide.

Gartner Peer Insights is an online platform for ratings and reviews of IT software and services that are written and read by IT decision-makers and professionals. It includes evaluations of 18,000 products in 425 markets and 450,000 verified, high-quality reviews. Gartner offers the Customers' Choice distinction to recognize vendors with the highest ratings, helping IT decision-makers make more insightful purchase decisions.

Hundreds of customers from China, Singapore, Mexico, Germany, Netherlands, Italy and other countries evaluated Huawei firewalls in various industries such as carrier, service, finance, education, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, and construction. The customers comprehensively evaluated and reviewed Huawei firewall products and solutions in terms of product functionality, live network performance, deployment, O&M, and service support. Among all the industries, customers from large-scale energy, construction, service, and retail industries also wrote great reviews for Huawei firewalls, with Huawei being the sole network firewall vendor to receive Customers' Choice recognition in the "Global Enterprise (10B+ USD)" company size segment. In addition, Huawei firewalls was also recognized by customers in the Asia-Pacific region and EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region, resulting in Huawei being named a "Customers' Choice" in these two region segments as well as being the only Chinese vendor in the EMEA region.
