Exinda joins Yelp, yogurt maker Chobani, Giftcards.com, KIND and famed hatmaker Tilly's among other prominent brands featured on this year's list.

Exinda is the first vendor to bring to market a solution that delivers application assurance as part of its core WAN optimization offering, allowing organizations to focus on business, not bits.

"For the past two years Exinda has grown faster than any other WAN Optimization vendor, and our unique approach to solving customers' network challenges has contributed to that success and is indicative of a change in customer priorities. Exinda is leading a fundamental shift in WAN optimization, with application assurance and user experience replacing traffic compression and acceleration at center stage."
