So, what's led the software-defined network service provider to outperform other ASX tech giants? Let's take a look.

The month that's been for Megaport

Megaport has only released one price-sensitive announcement to the ASX in the last month, and it seemed to be a good one.

The company provided the market with an update on its September quarter on 21 October.

However, the market was seemingly disappointed. On the day Megaport released its only news of the last 30 days, the company's share price dipped 0.7%.

Within the update, Megaport detailed a period in which its monthly reoccurring revenue increased to $8.6 million, 14% more than the previous quarter.

The company's quarterly revenue also came to $24.6 million, 8% greater than that of the June quarter.

Megaport's CEO Vincent English commented on what seemed to be a successful quarter, saying:

With a record quarter of [monthly reoccurring revenue] growth and a continued increase in long-term commitments from our customers, we are seeing more substantial adoption of our platform.
