Let's review.

ASX technology shares led the market last week

Let's take a look at how the major ASX 200 technology players performed last week.

One of the biggest risers was Gentrack Group Ltd (ASX: GTK) shares. The Gentrack share price rocketed 35.8% higher over the week to close at $13.01 on Friday. It hit a new all-time high of $13.13 on Friday.

The share price surge was largely due to the software provider's full-year results, which were released on Tuesday. Gentrack reported a 25.5% lift in revenue to NZ$213.2 million.

Another big riser last week was Life360 Inc (ASX: 360) shares, up 19.4% to $25.30 by Friday's close.

There was no particular reason for this substantial uplift, with the company having no price-sensitive news for us last week.

However, Life 360 shares have been on an upward trajectory for a while now. In fact, they are one of 11 ASX stocks outpacing the price growth of Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ: NVDA) over the past 12 months.

The largest company in the ASX 200 tech sector, WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC), gained 5.4%. The logistics company is continuing its recovery from a recent slump. Wisetech shares closed at $128.10.

Nextdc Ltd (ASX: NXT) shares rose 2.71% to $16.27.

TechnologyOne Ltd (ASX: TNE) shares fell 1.08% to finish at $30.21.
