Silver Peak, now part of Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company,offers a flexible, quick, and robust Zero-Touch Provisioning across the use cases we tested. Deployment of the Unity EdgeConnect™ SD-WAN edge platform was very easy, and the product included comprehensive documentation. The Unity Orchestrator centralized management system covered all common use cases and was very easy to navigate. For the two use cases with voice and video (Branches 1 and 2), the quality of experience for voice was excellent (4.40 out of 4.41), and video was extremely good. For video, Branch 1 achieved 4.28 MOS, and Branch 2 got 4.26 out of a total of 4.53, respectively. The Rated (VPN) Throughput was excellent for all branches, and we experienced very few spikes in latency during our testing.

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.
