"No more sleepless nights!! Huge cost savings!!!"

5/5

What do you like best about Oracle SD-WAN?

Talari SD-WAN has provided us with a near bullet proof layer of service reliability which over the years has saved us tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost productivity, not too mention we had yet to miss a SLA since implementing Talari. Also, its worth mentioning that we have had a massive reduction in after hours conference calls, long hours waiting on carriers to restore service, etc. Our work life balance has never been better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle SD-WAN?

Currently all our Talari devices need to run the same APN versions, so upgrades are dicey. Its all or nothing at the moment and in our environment its extremely difficult to take enterprise wide outages. I'm told that is about to change soon though, but we still need to upgrade one possibly two more times before we are at that point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before Talari we used dual tier 1 MPLS networks in a primary hot standby setup, but the fail over process from one to the other always caused a service disruption not to mention dropped voice calls. With Talari we have completely eliminated these events and basically any and all service impacting type events. We are now at the point where we are about to see a huge decrease in our yearly circuit spend as we transition away from these expense MPLS low bandwidth circuits to just basic high bandwidth Internet circuits.

"Covers everything we require"

5/5

What do you like best about Oracle SD-WAN?

the best thing is letting the solution manage what it wants to do rather than having to create a policy based experience

deployment is easy and we have just moved to the zero touch for the remainder of deployments

Support when needed has always been great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle SD-WAN?

dashboards need some work - just need to make them NOC screen worthy

few little feature that other vendors supply that are on the timeline but waiting on release

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle SD-WAN:

do your research on how your business is using the network, the harder bits are always hiding.

talari pre-sales are very good they will help you get the solution to work no matter how complex

decide is you want be more application driven or network driven when evaluating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Network outages have significantly decreased

Bandwidth can now be increased on site with the mixture of media connected which means we can keep a single MPLS for SLA's but then bolt a large amount of basic internet off the back Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent SD-WAN failsafe solution Talari"

5/5

What do you like best about Oracle SD-WAN?

I like Talara SD-WAN failsafe because it is easy to configure, has a unique channel, and uses Talari's own protocol. It is the father of SD-WAN and has the eighth generation of software. I've seen it running and addressing WAN connection problems, plus it provides customers with visibility of their entire WAN network. It can be said to offer zero latency, zero jitter, and a quality experience for users. Talari is definitely recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle SD-WAN?

I dislike that starting as a small business is not well valued. Hopefully now with the support of Oracle, it will rise to the first place as it should be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle SD-WAN:

The only way is to try this product and see the recommendations of customers who already use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The proposed SD-WAN solution will provide the following benefits:

1. All communication links operate in Active-Active mode.

2. Grouping of link types such as MPLS, Internet, and other technologies.

3. Improves the quality of service in the network, VLANs, etc.

4. Increases security through 256-bit AES data encryption.

5. Deduplication and low latency, packet routing capabilities, firewall, and load balancing.

6. Improves speed and data traffic, applications work faster, and there is no packet loss or low productivity.

7. A single configuration point and network monitoring.

8. Ability to use cheaper links than current ones, such as Internet with quality of service ADSL, LTE (4G/5G), VSAT, etc.

9. Calls (voice) are clear and uninterrupted.

10. If a link fails, users will not receive notifications of network crashes; the business continues without interruption while the carrier corrects the link problem, without crisis.

11. Talari allows for organizing and standardizing the NETWORK. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
