We performed a comparison between Cisco SD-WAN and Peplink SpeedFusion based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Solutions solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Initial setup is easy."
"Cisco is an industry leader, so customers have a high level of trust with the brand more-so than with some newcomers that might have some more revolutionary solutions, but no name recognition."
"SD-WAN is very stable - once it's deployed, you can just forget about it, it runs by itself."
"This solution can scale from SMB to the enterprise level. It is very impressive."
"This solution comes with comprehensive technical support."
"It's a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features, application awareness, and failover resilience, stand out as key considerations for users."
"You can easily scale the product."
"It is a very stable product."
"The valuable feature is that, after reading about its capabilities and using it for a while, Peplink SpeedFusion employs eight technologies within its SD-WAN profile, addressing issues like packet loss and latency. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support team gives quick response and efficient local support."
"The most valuable feature is the virtual VPN concentrator."
"The SpeedFusion feature is good. It allowed us to move away from IPsec between the sites. It is also a really easy product to deploy."
"In the Philippines, VPN usage may not be widely known, but we leverage VPN effectively within my organization. I've shared our in-house systems with other district offices, as I cover fifteen municipalities and cater to the entire province. This platform is a valuable tool for us, enabling collaborative work, and allowing us to update our services remotely."
"Our customers find it to be an interesting and tempting solution."
"The SpeedFusion feature is the most valuable."
"I would like to see revision cycles to be more stable."
"The solution needs to be more flexible around legacy devices."
"Cisco could do more to offer bundling of the SD-WAN and other solutions."
"We don't have any issues with this solution other than the price."
"The client portal needs to be improved in order to make the solution much better."
"Better pricing and greater security would be nice to see."
"The whole solution needs to be re-imagined. It's quite complex right now and really needs to be simplified to make it easier for those of us using it. It should offer more simplified management as well."
"The security features could be improved."
"The product needs to aggregate the bandwidth of different ISPs. It needs to improve scalability as well."
"Their hardware support isn't the greatest. We've had one unit go down, and it took a while for them to replace it. It was in the Caribbeans, so it might be a location-related issue."
"The stability has room for improvement."
"Its pricing is the main issue. The pricing could be improved. I would like to see an outbound policy based on the application. It is a very good feature, and most of the customers are looking for that. They can also include stronger firewall features. This would help the customers in choosing this product as the only device for the SD network."
"They don't have next generation firewall, UTM, like the other competitors."
"There is room for improvement in enhancing security features, such as incorporating intrusion detection blocking capabilities and integrating artificial intelligence to bolster security aspects on the device."
"I believe there could be some enhancements in the enterprise segment, offering greater options or something similar."
