Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN
We use it to interconnect our branches and steer traffic over the best path from one branch to another or from the branch to the headquarter. And also maximize our, I mean, not maximize, but have less expenses on the transport we use because some stuff it's cheaper to send over the internet. Others, it's cheaper to send over the MPLS and there lot the variations there. And this is where Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN is the one actually helps us out because some traffic also can be sent straight to the cloud and just do not use expensive circuits.
Pros
- The initial setup and building the whole infrastructure. It's like this.
Cons
- I would think app based routing and I think that is app based that would need more improving and more apps to be identified and actually to be able to make decisions based on those apps and those apps.
- It'll helped us to deploy large network setups in a really really small amount of time. That would be the main upside. The downside is with small clients, I don't know if they have 10 branches. It takes me the same time to set up 10 branches as for 1000. But this is how the technology works.
