We can get more productivity and also can optimize LAN & WAN IT Operations. We are also able to cut a lot of cost by moving from old MPLS technology to BB

    As mentioned earlier, since all features are pretty much available in one console, it is very user friendly and it becomes very easy for the Admin to just drag and drop a Plugin or a Tool that is required to perform a specific task. It's one of the most well designed layout to be honest.
