“Cisco Touts SD-WAN Virtues for Home Workers” ran in SDxCentral.  As enterprises moved quickly to transition their employees to remote work, the lines blurred.  Experience now tells us that WFH can feel like the wild-west with…school, gaming, NetFlex, et al.  We sure have all had a few eye-rolls, as app performance crawls or video looks like a high-school AV project.

The article highlights that Cisco is recommending SDWAN for “high-value, customer-facing workers or knowledge workers.”  You read that right & I have mentioned this on a few of the MD weekly calls – SDWAN will be needed at the house – cpe or HNS. 

My point, post pandemic, SDWAN for WFH users is becoming a reality & who better than VZ to help.  VZ recent accolades include:  Cisco Managed Services Partner of the Year (Sept) & IDC MarketScape placed VBG as the leader for MNS of SDWAN MNS (August).  Be loud & proud with those credentials.
