Overall Satisfaction with Ipanema WAN Optimization

I am a consultant in the automotive industry in Germany, where we are using Ipanema as a solution for WAN optimization. We've deployed this solution in more than 100 sites globally. This solution provides application monitoring and dynamic WAN selection based on application performance. It provides true picture of traffic management to the customer.
  • Dynamic WAN selection.
  • Application monitoring.
  • WAN optimization.
  • Application performance management.
  • Performance improvement.
  • SaaS Applications.
  • Knowledge base on support portal.
  • This can improve end user experience, which leads to reduced operational cost.
  • Return on Investment in 24 months.
  • Centralised management of devices can ease in management of devices.
Customer went through multiple vendors to address their issue related to application performance and WAN performance improvement. We went into discussion with Riverbed and Ipanema. Ipanema WAN Optimization solution fulfilled their requirements as some of the features like teleengine, virtual ipbox extra are an advantage over the Riverbed solution.
Some of the problem areas where I feel it wasn't easy enough like troubleshooting, digging deep with packet inspection, security. But Dynamic WAN Selection based on the AQS parameters give this solution an advantage on the other products. Newly added features like cloud application performance monitoring is simplified now.
