According to the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Global WAN Services report: “A reliable, agile, secure and high-performing WAN network is critical to support enterprise business operations. As a result, enterprises find it challenging to design and operate their networks to support dynamic business requirements, including hybrid work, and accelerating digital and cloud transformations. Not surprisingly, digital business initiatives place increasing demands on the enterprise network to assure reliability and performance, which results in growth of bandwidth demands between 20% and 30% annually.”
Additionally, the report says: “Enterprises’ global WANs must respond rapidly and reliably to the ever-changing needs of the enterprise to deliver on its digital business initiatives. I&O leaders can use this research to evaluate and select optimal global network service partners.”

We hope this recognition, as well as our continued investments in services, technologies, and operations, will help enterprises feel confident partnering with us for their global secure networking needs.
Comcast Business sees a significant change in how tech leaders interact with the broader business executive team. Despite ambitious digital transformation goals, many companies struggle with adopting advanced WAN/LAN/security technologies sometimes due to silos between networking and cybersecurity teams. This complexity may affect strategic alignment and decision-making, as IT decisions increasingly become business decisions.
We operate with an outcome mindset, engaging in conversations with prospective customers to understand their needs and then tailor networking solutions to meet those needs. By designing and delivering end-to-end global networking solutions that put customer requirements at the forefront and continuing to innovate around customer service and experience, we aim to serve businesses of all sizes with a human touch.
