The best feature is the single-controller architecture. All the EdgeConnect devices are connected and managed by a single controller. 

If we compare it with other vendors like Cisco and Versa, they have multiple controllers. For example, Cisco has vSmart, vBond, and vManage, three servers you have to manage to maintain the SD-WAN solution. 

But with Aruba, there is only one controller, called Orchestrator. So, you just deploy that one, and that's it.

So far, it's user-friendly, comprehensive, and not complicated.

And there's one more good feature I saw recently while working with the support team. That Feature belongs to traffic flow.  If you want to trace the traffic from one source to another, from source to destination, you want to track the traffic; you want to see the flow. It is very easy inside the Orchestrator. You just right-click on that and just the flow and it will show you how much latency you have and what are the exact parts for that destination if you are using the source. So everything is showing inside the one Orchestrator.

The important feature is the insight page. This is in a part of the management website where we have all the statistics about the net condition with a perimeter in one place, giving me enough information about the current status of the network.

The most valuable feature is the support for asymmetric lines.

This is the only end-to-end solution, where you can have multiple links. It allows you to manage everything inside your SD-WAN. With other solutions, it is more difficult to manage both sides.

This product is very simple to use.

It supports zero-touch provisioning.

The solution includes features for SD-WAN and WAN such as batch conditioning and optimization. 

Real-time techniques can be used for hardware or software in WAN optimization. Traditional WAN does not have this advantage. It is a wonderful track that gets you private or public internet first, then the negative effects of non-orderable packets.

The platform is very user-friendly. It allows clients to manage their network and view bandwidth, application performance, and application bandwidth usage across all locations. The platform's many features made it easy for us to transition from SD-WAN.

The file and data reduction capabilities are very good. Without it, we have a great deal of network congestion.

The monitoring integration is good. Generally, the compatibility with other products is good.

In terms of the most valuable features, I'd say it is Silver Peak's deployment. It's the main advantage. I think it is easy to understand and deploy their technology because they use a certain technical approach that they call overlays and underlays. With these two principles, they make use of the technological advantage of their platform.

They are also good in their routing feature. They have all the flavors. They work with other flavors for routing. I think they are good in this field.

This solution has many great features, including:

  • I really love the auto-tunnel creation feature.  
  • The deployment modes that it has allows it to fit into any architecture, whether it be a Layer 2 environment, or a Layer 3 environment, or support for BGP, etc.
  • It allows me to set QoS policies and then route policies.

Overall, what I find most valuable are its flexibility and deployment.
