It’s been almost a decade since SD-WAN burst onto the scene, and the service is undeniably a critical component of today’s enterprise WAN.
The core benefits associated with SD-WAN technology are consistent across all provider offerings—reduced cost and network complexity, ease of upgrades and policy changes, increased flexibility and network performance, and increased visibility into application performance.
But a dizzying array of SD-WAN service options still remain in the market.
Providers continue to add new service and security features to distinguish themselves in a crowded marketplace. And this multitude of different service options are reflected in the range of reported prices in the market.
Luckily, there is a light at the end of the tunnel: TeleGeography’s 2024 SD-WAN Vendor Guide.
About the Guide
As the SD-WAN market matures, there’s a growing need to more thoroughly catalog the many vendors who offer this service—a need that we're happy to satisfy.
Each year, we extract vendor profiles from our Cloud and WAN Research Service and turn them into a handy free guide.
Our 2024 e-book—detailing 26 SD-WAN vendors and 85 managed SD-WAN providers—is an attempt to outline the evolving vendor landscape. It’s not an attempt to endorse specific companies or recommend individual service packages.
Our goal is to better understand the full scope of SD-WAN services offered by vendors and the related partnerships that have bloomed between companies in pursuit of developing these technologies.
And we understand that as much as SD-WAN might still be a hot topic among network professionals, questions remain on how best to implement it. With that in mind, we’ve included additional insight on SD-WAN trends from our arsenal of research.
