PODCAST: GTT sets an adaptable managed services vision

May 19, 2025
In this episode of the Broadband Pulse podcast, we talked with GTT about its vision to simplify enterprise customers’ consumption of managed services.

Last September, GTT launched GTT Envision, a global technology platform for connecting, orchestrating, virtualizing, and automating enterprise networks. Built on its network backbone, GTT Envision enables enterprises to solve complex networking and security challenges by simplifying the orchestration and management of global security, cloud, and networking solutions.

The GTT Envision platform combines the technology of EnvisionCORE and EnvisionEDGE to enable the virtual deployment of orchestrated network functions anywhere. This is managed, customized, and controlled through a single digital experience with EnvisionDX.

We recently met with Chris Bonavita, GTT's VP of Strategy and Technology Adoption, to discuss Envision and its potential benefits for enterprise customers.
