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

"CIFS optimisation is really good and benefits are realised if using ICA also."
"They have a zero downtime failover mechanism, where, when there's a link failure or a link weakness, or bad link conditions, they provide the ability to fail back seamlessly."
"It lowered our Internet costs and gave me the flexibility to choose providers based on each location's connectivity."
"The reliability of connectivity is most valuable."
"The solution is brilliant, the way it calculates its paths and trails is great."
"Downtime for branch offices is now almost zero."
"The other banks, bank branches, require good connectivity, which is very important for a branch to have, and they managed to have an SLA of almost 100%."
"Downtime for branch offices is now almost zero. We have 100% real-time visibility into all of our lines. MPLS links have been replaced with lower-cost links, saving a larger percentage of line costs. Overall, I see SD-WAN as a must. And the Citrix SD-WAN product has delivered on expectations and exceeded them. (With later firmware updates we now have good firewall capabilities in the product too)."
"It has good reporting and analytics, that most people can understand without too much difficulty."
"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."
"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."
"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 many benefits of Nuage Networks is VoIP, as it will maintain a call session even if you lose an uplink."
 

Cons

"The solution's licensing model could be improved."
"Even though the monitoring is pretty good, there is some room for improvement there."
"Overall, network security and next-generation firewall features are areas that they can improve on."
"Citrix SD-WAN's knowledge base has a few missing things, so you may need to seek help from support."
"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 firewall reporting could be easier to use and filter. (It works well enough, but if I need to give an area for improvement, I think this would be it.). The built-in reporting on the product in this regard is not great."
"I would like to see support for additional reporting."
"The price is the only thing that could be improved. Citrix is not a cheap solution."
"The setup can be complex."
"Security is an area that could use some work."
"The price of the solution could be more affordable."
"Educational materials should be available for such a mature system!"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is relatively expensive."
"It depends on the scale. In our case, it would have been better if we had known about the life cycling steps, but otherwise, it is worth the money."
"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 license was a one-time purchase. It's expensive."
"It is a bit expensive. A cheaper product would be good, but everybody likes things to be cheaper. We bought the devices up front, and then we pay for the annual support."
"The price of the subscription should be cheaper."
"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's a little bit on the high side compared to the other products."
"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."
"I would say, from our cost perspective, they are extremely competitive."
