Upgrade your branch network without replacing a single router

SD-WAN, security, and cloud breakout activated by software license on the routers you already run.
USE CASES

Why implement SD-WAN?

Every new site or office used to mean weeks of waiting for network changes, backup links to negotiate, and a growing list of appliances to manage remotely. Meanwhile, your teams already live in SaaS applications like Microsoft 365, and routing that traffic through a central data center just adds delay for no real benefit. Ekinops SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) gives you one network that adapts automatically, keeps sites online when a connection drops, and lets your SaaS apps take the fastest path, without adding new hardware or a specialist at every branch.

  • Growing Without Growing Your IT Team

    Open a new site and get it connected and secured the same week, not the same quarter, without sending an engineer on-site.
  • Faster Apps, Lower Cost

    Let everyday SaaS Apps like Microsoft 365 reach the internet directly from each branch, instead of slowing down and adding cost to your private network.
  • Never Lose a Sale to a Dropped Connection

    If one internet or MPLS line fails, your business keeps running: traffic switches to a working line in under 3 seconds, with nobody noticing.
FEATURES

What's inside Ekinops SD-WAN

See and prioritize every application from the first packet

  • Identifies more than 7,000 applications and SaaS services from the very first network packet, for instant routing and prioritization decisions.
  • Gives full visibility into bandwidth consumption by application and by site from a central dashboard, surfacing unauthorized shadow IT services.
  • Monitors latency, jitter, and packet loss in real time to speed up troubleshooting and anticipate bandwidth needs.

Customer testimonials

They build secure, resilient networks with Ekinops

  • “The solution we delivered to VGRD is perfectly seamless, easy-to-operate and to deploy. Now, all ecotel customers can benefit from additional OneOS6 features, such as containers support, Firewall or SD-WAN, without any additional hardware deployment.”

  • “Rising traffic pressure combined with technological evolutions posed several critical challenges for our network. Ekinops worked closely with us to define a solution that can optimize network performance as well as secure business applications access within the legal framework in which we operate.”

FAQ

Find your answer to common questions on Ekinops SD-WAN.

No. Licensing is consumption-based: routing, security, and SD-WAN features activate in software as you turn them on, so you pay for the capacity and functions you actually use, and add more later without swapping hardware.

SD-WAN is built for SMBs, franchise networks, and small branch or point-of-sale sites: a simplified, one-box approach to hybrid WAN and local internet breakout at a competitive price. Secure Connect targets customers willing to have a better experience with their Internet connectivity without the need to interconnect their sites (multi-site network). Both run on the same hardware and orchestration platform, so you can start with one and move to the other without a re-architecture. You also have options in deployment model (SaaS) and Ekinops also have dedicated models for Channel.

SD-WAN Director, our central orchestration platform, manages up to 30,000 CPE devices per active instance, with a three-tier role-based structure (service provider, partner, customer) and self-service portals at every level, so operators can delegate specific configuration or security tasks to their customers while keeping the underlay under their own control.

No. The encrypted overlay relies on open, standard protocols, dynamic virtual tunnel interfaces to establish site-to-site links on demand, with IKEv2 encryption and BGP route propagation, rather than a closed, proprietary tunneling scheme. If you don’t want to deploy a physical router, our virtual router can also run as a VM or container on any standard hypervisor or uCPE server, including third-party white boxes.

Either. SD-WAN manages whichever underlay links you have, MPLS, fiber, 4G/5G, or a mix, so you can keep MPLS where you need its guarantees and add cheaper broadband or cellular elsewhere, with traffic routed intelligently across all of them.
