Software-defined networking in a wide area network (SD-WANs) are able to facilitate distributed workforces without increasing the financial or administrative burden on the organization. Through managed SD-WANs, organizations are able to take advantage of economical broadband connections, track and consolidate their network traffic and generally improve upon their application availability and user experience. Managed SD-WAN will make it easier for organizations to adopt and experience the benefits of SD-WAN without the need to learn a new technology.
