Improve your network’s agility, optimize network performance, and reduce costs with SaskTel’s SD-WAN: the most sought-after WAN technology.

Does your business or organization need to simplify your multi-branch WAN network? SaskTel’s Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) is a managed networking solution that gives businesses WAN link flexibility, scalability and self-healing, as well as visibility into network performance.

SD-WAN can allow your organizations to achieve the best application performance and resilience across your entire network, simplifying operations and lowering overall costs. SaskTel has the expertise and capability to meet all your network optimization requirements.

SD-WAN can manage network traffic automatically and dynamically across the most efficient network paths. These decisions are based on network conditions, traffic security and quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. SD-WAN eliminates the problem of fixed connectivity by building an overlay network in software that can dynamically respond to changing locations, loads and conditions.

Traditional WANs rely on physical routers to connect remote or branch users to applications that are hosted in data centres. Whereas, SD-WAN separates the control and management processes from the underlying networking hardware, making them available as software that can be easily configured and deployed.

SD-WAN can provide your business with a superior application experience, end-to end visibility and security.



Secure SD-WAN

By combining SD-WAN functionality, as well as security features of a firewall into a single device, Secure SD-WAN eliminates the need for multiple devices and reduces complexity while delivering an improved user experience, instant ROI, and simplified operations. Self-healing WAN capabilities, advanced routing, an integrated next-generation firewall, and centralized orchestration accelerate digital transformation at any scale.

SaskTel’s Secure SD-WAN provides consistent security enforcement across all edges by combining a next-generation firewall with advanced SD-WAN networking capabilities.

SaskTel’s Secure SD-WAN provides your business with:

  • Flexibility. Support for Hybrid WAN solutions combines private WAN and internet links and allows you the flexibility to quickly adapt to your changing business needs.
  • Efficient Operations. Simplify operations with our fully managed SD-WAN service which includes centralized orchestration, reporting and enhanced analytics.
  • Application Steering. Optimize application performance over hybrid or Internet links with direct, secure access to enterprise or cloud applications.

  • Cloud Ready. Extend your WAN seamlessly for access to Public or Hybrid clouds.
  • Customer Portal. Monitor your network bandwidth, view logs, reports and security policies from our web-based portal.
  • Simplified Deployment. Devices are provisioned and configured automatically, simplifying deployment by reducing the time and complexity of installation.
  • Comprehensive Security on-premises and in the Cloud. Comprehensive security options are available by utilizing a built-in next-generation firewall (NGFW) combining SD-WAN and security capabilities into a unified solution to preserve the security and availability of your network.
  • Effectively Manage Costs. SD-WAN integrates cost-effective and scalable connectivity options, thus offering better control over costs and capital expenditures.
