SD-WAN Solutions for Business —
Compare 50+ Vendors at Zero Cost

MPLS is a carrier-managed private network that routes traffic through dedicated circuits — reliable but expensive and not optimized for cloud. SD-WAN uses software to route traffic intelligently across multiple cheaper internet connections, achieving similar reliability at 30–60% lower cost, with better performance for cloud applications.

SD-WAN costs vary by vendor, number of locations, and bandwidth requirements. Managed SD-WAN pricing includes the software license and underlying circuits, and compares favorably to legacy MPLS — especially across multiple sites. Fibi negotiates pricing across 50+ vendors and presents you with the best-fit options at the lowest available price.

A well-planned SD-WAN deployment typically takes 4–12 weeks depending on the number of locations and whether new circuits need to be provisioned. Zero-touch provisioning has dramatically reduced on-site engineering requirements — most modern SD-WAN platforms can bring a new site online without a technician visit.

Yes. Most SD-WAN migrations are phased — SD-WAN runs alongside MPLS initially, traffic gradually shifts to the new infrastructure, and MPLS contracts are allowed to expire naturally. This eliminates migration risk and protects you from ETF penalties.

Fibi has relationships with 50+ SD-WAN vendors including Aryaka, Cato Networks, Fortinet, Versa Networks, VMware (Broadcom), Cisco Meraki, Palo Alto Prisma SD-WAN, AT&T, Comcast Business, Lumen, and many others. We have no exclusive arrangement with any vendor — our recommendation is based purely on fit for your requirements.

SD-WAN becomes most compelling at 3+ locations, but some cloud-managed SD-WAN platforms (like Meraki or Cato) are cost-effective even for 2 sites — particularly if you're replacing MPLS. For a single location, the value proposition is weaker; straightforward DIA or business broadband is usually the right answer.
