SD-WAN provides businesses with improved overall performance

A software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) can transform and improve a company’s ability to control traffic and data across the WAN, in an automated and intelligent way. SD-WAN allows a business to perform at peak efficiency as it improves user experience and application performance. It also reduces costs as the software is able to run and monitor the network.

SD-WAN manages the network intelligently and improves connectivity to data centres, the cloud and branch offices located anywhere in the world. It also provides advanced security to the network and the traffic within. The software supports VPNs as well as other third-party services, such as web gateways and firewalls, to ensure that the data being sent and received is completely safe.

SD-WAN supports multiple connection types without delay

SD-WAN also improves overall user satisfaction and business productivity by supporting multiple connection types. Whether employees use fibre, 4G or LTE connections, the software will automatically manage these connections to streamline the flow of traffic through the network.

This allows for information to be transferred without delay, as is often the case with traditional networking models. The software can be easily set-up and a company can get its branches and employees connected within minutes. SEACOM Business has partnered with Cisco Meraki to provide SD-WAN solutions in Kenya.
