CHALLENGES * [CHALLENGES](#challenges) * [BENEFITS](#benefits) * [CUSTOMER SUCCESS](#customerSuccess) * [BUSINESS VALUE](#businessValue) * [INDUSTRY VALIDATION](#industryValidation) * [RESOURCES](#resources) * [CONTACT US](#contactUs) {#challenges} THE LANDSCAPE ## Your branches are evolving. Can your SD-WAN keep up? *** ** * ** *** Today's branches run faster and do more than ever before. Branch employees need a resilient, high-performing WAN to access applications from data centers, SaaS providers, and the cloud. Most SD-WAN solutions don't deliver. ![Inconsistentaccess](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/icon-inconsistentsecurity.svg) ### Inconsistent access Most SD-WAN solutions rely on point products to maintain availability. When a connection point fails, they limit bandwidth by up to 50%, lowering branch productivity. ![Difficult to scale](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/icon-complexmanagement.svg) ### Complex management With most SD-WAN solutions, onboarding a new branch takes days, and integrating with the security stack is complex and inefficient. ![Poor user experiences](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/icon-disappointing-performance.png) ### Disappointing performance Most SD-WAN solutions create routing issues and use network SLAs for application forwarding decisions, impacting performance and user experience. {#benefits} Next-Generation Firewalls + Prisma SD-WAN ## Get reliable, high-performing, secure branch access. It's easy to deploy a resilient SD-WAN solution that integrates seamlessly with your security stack when you combine the network security from your Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls with Prisma SD-WAN. The industry's leading SD-WAN solution, engineered to optimize performance, Prisma SD-WAN deploys in minutes, reduces WAN costs, and streamlines operations with a unified management portal. ![Resilient networking](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/resilient-networking.png) ### Resilient networking Accelerate your branch modernization with the most resilient SD-WAN and ensure 100% capacity at all times. ![Simplified operations](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/simplified-operations.png) ### Simplified operations Unify your security and connectivity solutions to simplify SD-WAN management and automate provisioning across your branches. ![Exceptional user experience](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/exceptional-user-experience.png) ### Exceptional user experience Keep your employees happy with the high-performing, reliable connections they need to get the job done. ![Resilient networking](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/resilient-networking.png) ### Resilient networking Accelerate your branch modernization with the most resilient SD-WAN and ensure 100% capacity at all times. ![Simplified operations](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/simplified-operations.png) ### Simplified operations Unify your security and connectivity solutions to simplify SD-WAN management and automate provisioning across your branches. ![Exceptional user experience](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/exceptional-user-experience.png) ### Exceptional user experience Keep your employees happy with the high-performing, reliable connections they need to get the job done. {#customerSuccess} CUSTOMER SUCCESS ## See how other successful organizations have unified security and connectivity to accelerate branch modernization. ![SA Recycling](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/network-security/prisma-sd-wan-for-ngfw/sa-recycling-logo-white.svg) ## SA Recycling reduced trouble tickets by 97%, with zero downtime for video surveillance applications.
