SD-WAN in the Netherlands: ten benefits of affordable connectivity

Dutch businesses have fast, affordable broadband almost everywhere. How a software-defined wide area network turns it into a network you can rely on.

Connectivity is the backbone of every business. In the Netherlands, more and more businesses are discovering what a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) can do with affordable internet lines. These are ten benefits.

  1. Lower costs. SD-WAN runs over inexpensive internet connections, which brings operating costs down considerably.
  2. Lower risk. Traffic is spread over several network paths, so a single outage no longer stops the business.
  3. Security. Traffic is encrypted end to end across the entire network.
  4. Scalability. The network grows with your business without large additional costs.
  5. Performance. Applications are routed over the best available path, so users get a fast, stable experience.
  6. Visibility. You see and control the whole network from one place, which makes management and troubleshooting easier.
  7. Cloud integration. SD-WAN connects directly to cloud services such as Azure and Microsoft 365, which helps productivity and collaboration.
  8. Bandwidth optimisation. Bandwidth goes where it matters most, so critical applications get priority.
  9. Agility. New sites and applications are connected quickly.
  10. Future-proof. SD-WAN is built to support new technologies as they arrive.
