CloudGenix
CEO: Kumar Ramachandran
Founded in 2013, CloudGenix hasn't been quiet about its plans to shake up the SD-WAN space. In fact, it finds itself facing off against the likes of Cisco and VMware frequently and is winning deals over the incumbents, according to the San Jose, Calif.-based specialist.
In April, CloudGenix raised $65 million in Series C funding, which came on the heels of a rapid-growth year in which the company grew 300 percent year-over-year with more than 90 percent of that growth coming from wins over incumbent networking providers, Ramachandran said.
