GSX is Recognized by Gartner in Three Recent Reports

Acceleration of digital workplace trends due to COVID-19 leads to third-party recognition.

OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 5, 2020 /CNW/ - Martello Technologies Group Inc., ("Martello" or the "Company") (TSXV: MTLO), a provider of digital experience monitoring (DEM) solutions, announced today that GSX has been recognized by Gartner in three recent reports. GSX, which was acquired by Martello in May 2020, provides software that monitors the Microsoft 365 end user experience.

In the July 21, 2020 report Leverage Office 365, Monitoring Practices to Improve Availability and Eliminate Performance Challenges, Gartner recommends that "I&O leaders responsible for transforming IT infrastructure, operations and cloud management must: identify issues that impact the end-user experience by implementing dedicated performance analysis tools to establish a performance baseline for office applications, enhance visibility into the user experience by leveraging SaaS-based monitoring tools that focus on global, end-to-end usage and synthetic transactions." Martello-GSX has been recognized in this report.

In its Hype Cycle for the Digital Workplace, 2020 report published on July 17, 2020, Gartner recognized GSX as a Sample Vendor of Digital Experience Monitoring and Workplace Analytics.

According to the report "For many organizations, COVID-19 elevates digital workplace strategies from nice-to-have to must-have status, and it makes workforce digital dexterity a C-suite issue". The report gave Digital Experience Monitoring a "high" benefit rating, forecasting the technology will reach the Plateau of Productivity in two to five years. On the need for DEM solutions, the report noted that "Organizations that implement DEM tools can not only benefit from better application performance and improved user experience, but also ultimately improve business outcomes in support of digital transformation." GSX was also recognized in Gartner's Hype Cycle for IT Performance Analysis, 2020, published July 17, 2020.

Martello acquired GSX in May 2020, as part of its strategy to deliver the industry's clearest picture of the digital user experience for cloud services such as unified communications and video conferencing. Headquartered in Switzerland, GSX develops Gizmo, the end-user experience monitoring solution for Microsoft 365. This strategic acquisition adds to Martello's monthly recurring revenue (MRR) and diversifies Martello's revenue stream, while offering access to an addressable market of 200 million monthly active users of Microsoft 365
