Date | Available On Demand |
Duration | 1 Hour |
The global software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) market is on pace to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 33.8 percent from 2020 to 2026, climbing to $9.8 billion by mid-decade. With cloud application delivery, security-driven networking and cost optimization accelerating adoption of managed SD-WAN services, managed service providers (MSPs) need to seize the moment and provide customers with scalable, resilient and secure network infrastructures that enable the realities of a fast-changing business landscape increasingly dominated by remote employee access. But many MSPs are still struggling to create and monetize managed SD-WAN services, squandering the opportunity to provide customers with the services and support to ensure increased productivity within a secure work-from-anywhere environment.
Join Channel Futures contributor and KloudReadiness CEO George Mellor and Fortinet Senior Director of MSSP & Service Enablement Stephan Tallent for expert tips and insights into how MSPs can construct a growth-oriented SD-WAN services business that delivers solid bottom-line results and value to customers. Topics include:
- Why working from anywhere demands a cost-optimized, transformative approach to security
- Why most SD-WAN solutions are incomplete and ill-equipped to secure enterprise data
- How to ensure critical applications are securely delivered to the home office, branch, corporate campus and everywhere else users conduct business
