Augment or Replace Your MPLS with SLA-Backed Global SD-WAN
45+ PoPs maximize network throughput between global locations
The Cato Solution:
Cloud-based SD-WAN as a Service
Cato is providing a fully converged global SD-WAN, delivered as a cloud service. The SD-WAN measures the real-time transport quality, including latency and packet loss, and uses Policy-based Routing (PbR) to route application-specific traffic over the most appropriate transport. Unlike standalone edge SD-WAN devices, Cato is uniquely capable to apply PbR end-to-end, for both the last-mile and the middle-mile
Augment or Replace Global MPLS to Reduce Network Spend
Consistent Application Performance
Improved WAN
Reliability
Optimized Cloud
Access
Simple Site Provisioning and Management
Multi-Segment Optimization
Cato’s secure and global SLA-backed backbone enables customers to augment and ultimately replace MPLS connectivity. Unlike SD-WAN edge solutions that are focused on MPLS augmentation only, Cato extends the WAN transformation to eliminate branch security appliances, and natively support cloud applications and mobile users. With Cato, customers can maximize the benefits of transforming their WAN to reduce the cost, complexity and risks of their IT infrastructure.
3 quick ways to try Cato
Cato offers 3 simple ways to evaluate the service and experience the Cato Cloud capabilities in your environment:
Securely connect mobile users to your cloud datacenter (like Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure) or SaaS application (like Office 365) using the Cato Client.
Connect mobile users to your physical datacenters using an existing Firewall. Establish an IPSec VPN tunnel from the Firewall in the datacenter to the Cato Cloud and access business applications from any mobile device.
Connect branch or remote location to your physical datacenters. Cato will ship the Cato Socket SD-WAN device to your remote site and connect it to the datacenter using IPSec VPN from an existing Firewall.
Even with a full deployment, I can bring up a global, site-to-site VPN in two hours should something happen, but I don’t see that as a concern. Not only does Cato Cloud perform well, but the support Cato offers is insanely great. I never experienced such a fast response

Cato’s mobile VPN is my secret BCP [business continuity plan] in my back pocket. If my global network goes down, I can be like Batman and whip this thing out. With Cato, we can connect our twenty-one sites and still save 30% on costs compared to our six-site, MPLS network

I’d probably have to spend about 500,000 pounds for three years for an MPLS circuit of the same bandwidth from my Hong Kong office to the UK. Instead, I’m spending just 18,000 pounds per year for direct Internet access (DIA) with local SLAs.
