VMware VeloCloud SD-WAN is recognized as an SD-WAN leader, offering user-friendly solutions that help end customers and enterprises solve network optimization issues efficiently. Its proprietary Dynamic Multipath Optimization (DMP) technology is regarded as the most powerful and valuable function by VMware VeloCloud SD-WAN. I see customer transformation to VMware VeloCloud SD-WAN networks showing a 30 to 40 percent increment per year.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice to others is if you are looking for an SD-WAN solution then FatPipe SD-WAN is a good choice."
"The most valuable feature of FatPipe SD-WAN is it's based on SD-WAN technology."
"They make use of a combination of different internet lines, which improves quality."
"Increases the performance of applications and is easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is the dynamic multipath optimization."
"Proactively detects where problems might arise."
"VeloCloud performs as well as the Cisco SD-WAN but it is cheaper in price."

"Overall as an experience, I have found that customers like the UI/UX experience that they receive from VMware."
"What VeloCloud provides is a solution that maintains data integrity."
 

Cons

"FatPipe SD-WAN can improve the price to scale the solution."
"Technical support for VeloCloud needs to be improved."
"VeloCloud needs improvement in terms of its security features."
"There are other solutions out there that I would highly recommend over this solution, but it is not bad."
"In an upcoming release, they should allow customers the flexibility to use mobile applications where they can go and check on the information about their networks. A lot of vendors, such as Meraki, have a lot more integration with the use of portals to a mobile application. Having this feature as an alternative to logging into a laptop would be beneficial. If you are a SaaS-based company why not make a mobile application as well. You might not be able to do configurations but at least monitor while away or on vacation."
"VMware SD-WAN could improve by having more partnerships with other vendors."
"It performance is mediocre but as more and more satellites are added, the performance and the capabilities are that much more."
"The solution doesn't offer failover between their own devices. If I want to, I should be able to put the two devices at the side, so there can be a failover."
"Reports could be simplified."
