Seamlessly combines Internet and MPLS
Citrix has made my work easier and more cost-effective. It lowered our Internet costs and gave me the flexibility to choose providers based on each location's connectivity. Unlike before, I'm not tied to a specific provider. The central deployment feature allows easy configuration updates for all boxes from the head office, streamlining network management. This simplification has been a big plus for our operations.

Great multi-tenancy and routing functionalities but needs more security capabilities
We primarily use the solution for connectivity to the majority of our customers, for national and international deployments.  Their multi-tenancy and routing functionalities are both great. It is stable and reliable. The solution can scale. Technical support has been fine. Security needs to be…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The stability is the main feature of Citrix SD-WAN. You can also upgrade the data packages or have less transmission."
"The main advantage of Citrix SD-WAN is that it enables fast communication between our branches and data centers. And, with its cloud management features, it also makes the process of adding new branches into our company network much easier."
"The VPN and the load balancing are the most valuable features."
"We are using it widely for the local record for SaaS-based applications. Another valuable feature is a local breakout."
"The hands-on customer support and load balancing that come with this solution are above all others on the market."
"Downtime for branch offices is now almost zero."
"It lowered our Internet costs and gave me the flexibility to choose providers based on each location's connectivity."
"It provides a more fluid experience to end-users when they're using their applications or desktops."
"It has good reporting and analytics, that most people can understand without too much difficulty."
"One of the many benefits of Nuage Networks is VoIP, as it will maintain a call session even if you lose an uplink."
"Version 6.0 now is expected by mid of this year which reflects a maturity I've never experienced with any other network virtualization system."
"It is stable and reliable."
"Nuage Networks provides a professional solution experience; they are a large corporation developing new features all the time that are very useful."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is network management. The customer is able to manage their network from home or we can also manage the whole customer network."
 

Cons

"The solution's licensing model could be improved."
"I think the price can be improved, particularly in third world countries such as Ecuador where companies don't have the budget to implement expensive products."
"Citrix SD-WAN does not have the SD-WAN with one optimization in a single license. Other competitors have this option and it should be added to this solution."
"The price could be improved, it's an expensive solution."
"Enhancements are needed to improve the stability."
"The communication around the life cycle would have been really helpful. The main issue we have had is related to the life cycle because some of the things that we are using were discontinued. They were discontinued within a year after we had purchased it, which is a bit painful. If we had known that, we would've made some other decisions."
"The only improvement for Citrix SD-WAN would be to lower its cost."
"Even though the monitoring is pretty good, there is some room for improvement there."
"Security is an area that could use some work."
"The setup can be complex."
"The price of the solution could be more affordable."
"Educational materials should be available for such a mature system!"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As NetScaler is now, I find it quite pricey."
"The license was a one-time purchase. It's expensive."
"I believe that Citrix SD-WAN is a good investment, but I do not have the information to be more specific."
"I'm not quite sure of the price ranges. Roughly, the hidden devices can scale up to $20K for one appliance. However, the branch CPs are USD $1,000 to $2,500."
"It would be helpful to have a demo license available for customers who want to prove the concept and conduct a proof of concept (POC) before committing to the solution. This is particularly important for customers in Egypt who often require a demonstration of the solution's features and compatibility with their needs before making any investment or incurring costs. Providing a demo license would allow customers to assess whether the solution would meet their needs or not."
"The price is relatively expensive."
"It's a little bit on the high side compared to the other products."
"The price of the subscription should be cheaper."
"I would say, from our cost perspective, they are extremely competitive."
"The price of the solution could be more affordable. Customers want to use their own cheap connection and also do not want to pay too much for services from this solution, it becomes too expensive."
