Overall Satisfaction with VMware SD-WAN, by VeloCloud
We used VeloCloud to replace our MPLS environment where having Cisco routers wouldn't support SD-WAN a few years back. VeloCloud was ahead of the game when making the decision to redesign our networking infrastructure. They truly continue to make constant improvements with cloud based upgrades and played a major role in our ability to adapt to the work from home environment this past year. Having multiple public circuits and quickly standing up an office has also played a major role in our growth. Their documentation is also robust and very easy to understand. Their support for APIs is also a big factor when integrating with our monitoring solution.
Pros
- Direct cloud access.
- Scalable growth for network infrastructure.
- Flexible control over application data flows.
Cons
- Reporting could use some improvement.
- Monitoring insights.
- DMPO
- Business Policy
- Scalable Network Infrastructure
- VeloCloud has helped us reduce the time to open a new office.
- Quickly configure using profile templates.
- Security at our branch sites using cloud security services.
At the time we made our decision to move forward with VeloCloud, Cisco Viptela and Cisco Meraki were the two players we compared against. Cisco's offerings were very customizable when using Viptela, but there was a big learning curve to implement. Meraki at the time was a lot simpler, but we needed the ability to customize some features in order to implement SD-WAN in our environment. VeloCloud was the perfect solution during our POC as it satisfied our needs.
