zWAN ACI – SD-WAN USE CASE

Always Connected Internet (ACI) – SD-WAN for Uninterrupted Connectivity

Use Case: Businesses require a reliable, secure, and cost-effective solution to maintain uninterrupted internet connectivity and optimize network performance across multiple locations.

In today’s digital landscape, businesses heavily rely on consistent and efficient internet connectivity to maintain operations, communicate effectively, and deliver services. However, many organizations face challenges such as network downtime, escalating bandwidth demands, and complex network management, which can hinder productivity and profitability. The result of internet outages or slowdowns is very costly to organizations in the form of lost revenue, worker productivity or even loss of customer satisfaction. AmZetta’s Always Connected Internet (ACI) solution leverages Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) technology to address these issues, offering reliable, secure, and cost-effective internet access by aggregating multiple WAN connections.

Common Connectivity Challenges:

Network Downtime

Unexpected outages disrupt business-critical applications, resulting in lost productivity and revenue.

Bandwidth Limitations

Growing demands from applications like VoIP, video conferencing, and SaaS platforms strain traditional network infrastructures.

Cost Constraints

Maintaining reliable connectivity with traditional solutions like MPLS can be expensive and difficult to scale.

Complexity

Managing diverse network connections and addressing bottlenecks add to IT complexity.

The Impact of Connectivity Challenges:

The impact of these challenges on businesses is far-reaching:

  • Productivity Losses: Downtime and slow connectivity prevent employees from completing tasks efficiently, delaying workflows and affecting overall output.

  • Customer Dissatisfaction: Poor performance of critical applications, such as customer support systems or online services, leads to frustration and reduced client trust.

  • Operational Inefficiencies: Struggling to meet escalating bandwidth needs results in higher costs and unnecessary complexity, while also slowing down business processes.

  • Competitive Disadvantage: Inability to adopt or optimize modern applications and tools hampers innovation and places businesses behind their competitors.
