A running shoe retailer facing impending divestiture from their parent company needed to establish a secure and reliable network for 70 locations. Due to time constraints, they ruled out 4G fiber and coaxial cable. Broadband would have been fast enough in terms of deployment, but wouldn’t meet the retailer’s performance and stability requirements for customer-facing applications.
To achieve reliable and secure connectivity quickly and affordably across all 70 sites, the company turned to an SD-WAN software management overlay in our portfolio. The new network was up and running with adequate stability and reliability in under 60 days, and it allowed the retailer’s credit card processing system to operate at peak performance.
If you want to simplify IT while enhancing network observability, reliability and security, you should consider similar managed network edge solutions and services in our portfolio.
