  ### 3. One of the best SD-WAN platforms in the market for Service Providers

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Janne M. | Technical Product Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Nuage SD-WAN?**

Nuage works better than any of the competing solutions for service providers who want to deploy the infrastructure once and then use it to deploy services to multiple customers. The platform has multi-tenancy capabilities and security implementations to allow this type of use exceptionally easily. Nuage has exceptionally rich routing capabilities including dynamic routing protocols, multiple VPN support (VRF),  support for in-built LTE and 4G and MPLS underlays. This makes it, once again, exceptionally suitable for service providers.

**What do you dislike about Nuage SD-WAN?**

Deployment of Nuage leads to a relatively complex technical environment, spanning tens of virtual machines. This makes scaling to multiple platforms challenging, but not impossible.

**Recommendations to others considering Nuage SD-WAN:**

Nuage does genuine, academically proven SDN instead of simply using legacy technology to build overlays across multiple uplinks. Nuage allows for multi-tenant operations and is cost-efficient, but the virtual infrastructure can be complex to manage.

**What problems is Nuage SD-WAN solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is providing access-independent overlay-based networking services for enterprises. Nuage SD-WAN allows service providers to do this in a way that is efficient for SP business. The speed of deployment, time to market and ability to start billing have been enhanced for our company.
