Open Systems Wins Gold Globee® Award 2025 for Outstanding SASE Solution and Customer Excellence for the 2nd time in a row
ZURICH- April 17, 2025 - Open Systems, the leading provider of native, managed SASE solutions with a superior customer experience, has been awarded the Gold Globee® Award in the Cybersecurity category in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Solution at the 12th Annual Globee® Awards for Excellence. This award recognizes both the innovation behind Open Systems’ SASE platform and the company’s unwavering commitment to service excellence.

“At Open Systems, our mission is to combine the best of human expertise and cutting-edge technology to make secure networking simple for our customers,” said Daniel Neuhaus, CEO of Open Systems. “This award acknowledges not only the strength of our platform, but also the deep partnerships we form with our customers. We see ourselves not just as a vendor, but as an extension of their team.”
Unified SASE platform for technical and business benefits
For organizations who need to connect and protect users, apps, and data everywhere, This focus on industry-specific requirements is also reflected in how Open System’s Account Management is organized - tailored to specific industries, i.e. Finance, Manufacturing and NGOs. Thus, Open System’s experts not only act as the technical sparring partner but rather as extended team, consulting on industry best practices.
Furthermore, the unique engineering-to-operations rotation as well as 24×7 follow-the-sun support is another factor that sets Open Systems’ solution apart. Open Systems’ native, Managed SASE Platform is managed through 3 service layers:
- Mission Control Operations Center staffed 24×7 by level-3 engineers
- Designated Customer Success Managers assigned to each customer
- Customer portal dashboard and management tool
This doesn’t merely elevate secure network access with an easy customer experience, it supports Open Systems’ clients to reach their business goals: Open Systems’ team of experts enables CIOs to have peace of mind and get a more secure and agile network environment and lets them return their focus to driving business success:
“By entrusting Open Systems with our SD-WAN, ZTNA, and augmented network management, we can focus on our strategic goals, confident in their reliability and expertise supporting our infrastructure.”
