Unified Communications (UC), video collaboration, and SaaS applications impose increasing demands on legacy WANs that struggle to keep up with data load, while employee productivity suffers.
SD-WAN addresses these real-life challenges by reducing the need for expensive fixed circuits, proprietary hardware, and significant IT management overhead. The unpredictability of the public Internet can impact employee productivity as it seriously degrades UCaaS performance, especially for remote workers. MPLS networks were designed to handle IT traffic from the user to the in-house datacenter, but the rapid adoption of SaaS has shifted the WAN traffic from the network edge to the cloud provider, overloading traditional WANs. SD-WAN takes control of common network characteristics that affect SIP Trunks and UC performance.
