The tool is useful as an optimization tool, especially in scenarios with limited bandwidth, like intra-connecting sites. It optimizes WAN traffic so that critical traffic gets priority and is optimized, preventing the bandwidth from being exhausted too quickly.
One of our most valuable features is Steelhead's cloud migration optimization. Moving to the cloud helped optimize our workflow, improving performance for end-users.
In terms of data optimization, the key benefit is the optimization itself, as it can result in significant improvements. With Steelhead, you can achieve up to a 25% optimization rate. For example, instead of passing one terabyte of data via one link, Steelhead can bring it down to as fast as 300. So, in terms of cost-benefit analysis, you realize many benefits.
Using Steelhead provides several benefits to the company. Firstly, it makes the client application easier to use. Additionally, it helps optimize costs by reducing bandwidth requirements.
The product needs improvement in its integration with SDN.
I have been using the product for 15 years.
The solution is scalable. My company has 4000 users.
Steelhead's support is impressive.
The tool's deployment is not complex. You would need five resources for the technical team.
With the installation or deployment of Steelhead, we optimize the WAN instead of buying additional tools or increasing our internet capacity. We're able to optimize our bandwidth, which, optimizes our return on investment.
