Forcepoint SD-WAN provided flexible, quick, and robust Zero-Touch Provisioning. Deployment was easy, and the product included comprehensive documentation. The centralized management covered all common use -cases. Furthermore, we found that VoIP MOS was excellent (4.40) and that Video MOS was excellent (4.51) out of maximum achievable scores of 4.41 and 4.53, respectively. VPN throughput performed a little lower than expected at 627 Mbps. These findings were largely corroborated by speaking with consumers and reviewing their SD-WAN deployments; however, some have reported higher throughput in the field.

Product ratings give decision-makers clear, forward-looking insight into the effectiveness of products tested. This report employs a letter rating system, which provides a forecast about a product’s capacity to meet its obligations to consumers over time. Products are assigned letter ratings ranging from AAA-D, calculated on a scale from 0 to 800. The highest rating of ‘AAA’ indicates that the product’s capacity to meet its commitments to consumers is extremely strong while a product rated ‘D’ is actively being breached by known threats and is unable to protect consumers. Ratings inform consumers, enhancing transparency and enabling them to focus on considerations that are most critical to their organizations.
