What Is Managed SD-WAN? (And Why It Matters for UK Businesses)

3 months ago
SD-WAN

You’ve read about SD-WAN. You know it saves money, boosts performance, and beats MPLS. But who actually runs it once it’s installed?

That’s where managed SD-WAN comes in — and it’s exactly what we offer at Connect2.


️ What Does “Managed SD-WAN” Mean?

It means we handle:

  • Network design and rollout

  • Device installation at each site

  • Ongoing monitoring and optimisation

  • 24/7 UK-based support

  • Fault resolution and circuit management

You focus on your business. We focus on your network.


✅ What’s Included with Connect2 Managed SD-WAN?

We make it simple. Our managed service includes:

  • Hardware + licences (pre-configured)

  • UK-based underlay connectivity (leased lines, FTTP, 5G)

  • Security policies and encryption setup

  • Real-time monitoring and alerts

  • 24/7 support and troubleshooting

  • Performance analytics & reporting

You get a powerful SD-WAN setup, plus the team to run it.


Why Businesses Choose Managed Over DIY

Some vendors sell “DIY SD-WAN” — where your team configures, monitors, and maintains everything.

That’s fine if you’ve got a full IT department… but risky if you don’t.

Our clients prefer managed SD-WAN because:

  • They don’t have to train internal staff

  • Issues are resolved before they affect users

  • Their network scales easily as they grow

And we’re not a faceless telco — we assign you a dedicated account manager who knows your network inside out.


Case in Point

A 5-site retail business recently switched from unmanaged broadband to Connect2 SD-WAN. We provided:

  • Leased line + FTTP mix

  • Full managed deployment

  • Live status dashboard

Result? 45% cost savings vs MPLS and 100% uptime in the first 6 months.


Managed = Peace of Mind

Networks are mission-critical. Why leave yours to chance?

With Connect2’s managed SD-WAN, you get:

  • Resilience, speed, and security

  • Support from real UK experts

  • The flexibility to scale as you grow
