SD-WAN is a hot topic, but most businesses are still uncertain about what it does. Simply put, it’s a box that sits between your LAN and two or more internet service providers. Plug it all in, and what you have is a device that understands voice packets need the fastest route to the internet possible.

The SD-WAN makes a decision on which ISP to use based on real-time traffic flow data. If one internet service provider is experiencing a virtual “traffic jam,” the important traffic routes through your second internet service provider and is used until the traffic jam clears up.

How important is constant uptime to your business?

• Do you have a failover/backup solution currently?
• Do you have enough bandwidth to support your current/future cloud applications?
• What are your business-critical applications?
• Where do your applications live today?
• Do all of your applications perform consistently and reliably today?
• What applications are limited due to your current WAN constraints?
• What is the cost of downtime to your business?
• What do you do today when the Internet goes down?
• Have you looked to leverage a low-cost carrier in the past to guarantee uptime?

Let’s set up a time to talk about how this might be a good fit.
