Today’s Tech Bytes conversation is about SD-WAN and SD-Branch
deployment with an auto dealership that has 19 locations across the
United States. Frustrated by poor service from a managed service
provider, the business needed a more efficient way to connect
locations while ensuring high performance for critical
applications. It also needed strong security to meet regulatory
requirements and protect customers’ financial information. The
company went all-in on Fortinet for its network and security
equipment. Our guest is Shane Williams, Director of IT; and Paul
Provorse, System Administrator, both of White Family Dealerships.
Besides SD-WAN we’ll talk about how and why the company is using
Fortinet APs, switches, and other gear at its locations. We also
discuss the visibility and uptime benefits that company has gotten
from bringing operations in-house.
