NetScout Systems has been named to Forbes’ annual list of America’s Best Small Companies 2014.

NetScout ranked 51st overall and ninth in the Software and Programming industry category. This marks the company’s third time on the publication’s prestigious rankings with previous inclusion in 2012 and 2010.

“Small caps present tremendous opportunities for investors with faster growth potential in many cases versus multi-billion dollar conglomerates. Each year Forbes looks to identify up-and-coming companies that have displayed strong, consistent growth in our feature on America’s Best Small Companies,” writes Kurt Badenhausen, Senior Wditor, Forbes. “Our 36th annual list highlights businesses that span the economy from aerospace to homebuilding to retail. Our top 100 includes public companies with sales under $1 billion. They are ranked based on return on equity, sales growth and earnings growth over the latest 12 months, as well as the past five years. We also factored in stock market performance versus each company’s industry peer group during the past year.”

“We are honored to be recognized by Forbes for the third time on the continued strength of our financial performance,” said Jim McNiel, VP, Worldwide Marketing, NetScout. “All companies, enterprise and service providers alike, who are committed to the delivery of high-quality and reliable network services, can benefit from NetScout’s products.
