Managed SD-WAN Services

Managed SD-WAN enhances network performance by intelligently managing traffic across multiple connections, optimizing bandwidth utilization, and minimizing packet loss.Unlike traditional WAN architectures that route traffic through a central data center, SD-WAN enables direct cloud connectivity, reducing challenges in network performance such as high latency and congestion.


With application-aware routing, it prioritizes business-critical network services, ensuring smooth operation even during peak traffic periods. By dynamically adjusting to demands on network performance, SD-WAN helps businesses maintain high-speed, reliable connectivity for critical applications.

Managed SD-WAN integrates enhanced security features to protect complex networks against evolving cyber threats. These include:

• End-to-End Encryption: Secure VPN tunnels with AES encryption to safeguard data in transit.
• Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs): Prevents unauthorized access and mitigates threats.
• Traffic Segmentation: Isolates applications and sensitive data to minimize security risks.
• AI/ML-Based Threat Intelligence: Proactively detects and neutralizes cyber threats before they impact network services.

Secure Web Gateway (SWG): Ensures safe internet access by filtering malicious traffic.

Deep Network Visibility: Identifies anomalies that could compromise business continuity.

These security features enable enterprises to protect sensitive data while maintaining high-performance network services.

The cost of implementing a managed SD-WAN solution varies based on:

• Number of Locations: More sites increase network complexity and pricing.
• Bandwidth Requirements: Higher demands may increase network costs.
• Security & Performance Features: Advanced enhanced security and optimization capabilities may impact pricing.
• Deployment Model: Cloud-based vs on-premises solutions affect overall cost.
• Ongoing Expenses: Licensing, maintenance, and support fees contribute to total ownership costs.

Despite the upfront investment, managed SD-WAN can lower long-term network costs by reducing dependence on expensive MPLS links and improving business continuity through intelligent traffic management.

Many believe they must choose between SD-WAN and MPLS, but the reality is that SD-WAN can complement MPLS rather than replace it entirely. MPLS has been known for its high reliability, offering 99.9% uptime. However, SD-WAN provides an alternative by dynamically routing traffic over multiple transport types, reducing packet loss and optimizing network costs.

A well-designed SD-WAN solution can match or even surpass the reliability of MPLS by addressing challenges in network performance, such as congestion and latency, while offering greater flexibility. Ultimately, the best approach depends on a business’s specific network services requirements and cost considerations.

Yes, managed SD-WAN is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure, enhancing the performance of complex networks without requiring a complete overhaul. It operates as a virtualized overlay that works alongside MPLS, broadband, LTE, and satellite connections. This flexibility allows organizations to improve business continuity by maintaining network redundancy and ensuring reliable failover mechanisms.Additionally, SD-WAN provides centralized control, making it easier to manage network services while reducing network costs through efficient bandwidth utilization.
