Hughes Network Systems LLC has been identified as a challenger in 2020 in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for managed network services.

The company has also been distinguished as a leader on the 2020 Frost Radar for North American Managed SD-WAN Services, according to a press release.

The Gartner November 2020 Magic Quadrant for Managed Network Services report cites the company's ability to execute and completeness of vision. Hughes scored the highest in all five managed network use cases in the November 2020 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Managed Network Services report.

"These recognitions from Gartner and Frost reflect, not just our industry-leading ability to successfully deliver managed network services, but also our commitment at Hughes to going the extra mile to meet our customers' needs," Dan Rasmussen, senior vice president at Hughes, said in the release.
