Next Gen Networking (SD-WAN)
Support business change without rebuilding the WAN.
Cato SD-WAN connects sites, clouds, and users through a cloud-delivered service backed by Cato's private global backbone. Start with the network change the business needs now, then grow into SASE from the same platform when ready.
Legacy WAN makes business change harder to support.
Branch appliance cycles
Appliance-centered SD-WAN constrains site growth, updates, and capacity planning around hardware at each location.
Unpredictable middle mile
Internet-only routing leaves performance between sites, clouds, users, and applications exposed to public internet conditions.
Troubleshooting gaps
Teams lose time when performance issues span sites, links, providers, clouds, SaaS, and applications.
Make the WAN easier to change, operate, and trust.
Cato delivers SD-WAN as a cloud service, so IT can change the network at the pace the business needs — connecting sites, clouds, and users without rebuilding the WAN around new branch appliances.

Growth Optimization
Open sites, add capacity, and support cloud access without rebuilding the WAN around new branch appliances.
Operational Efficiency
Manage SD-WAN policy, application priority, and service changes centrally instead of site by site.
User Experience
Carry priority traffic according to policy and link health, and see where performance issues begin.

A cloud-delivered way to change the WAN.
Operate SD-WAN from the cloud
Sites connect to the Cato Cloud and are managed centrally, so IT can bring locations online, apply policy, and deliver service changes without treating every branch as a separate appliance project.
Explore SD-WAN
Extend control into the middle mile
Most SD-WAN improves local link choice at the branch. Cato can carry traffic across its private global backbone, where centralized policy, routing, and traffic priority help business-critical applications use more predictable paths.

Find where user experience breaks
Cato provides visibility into site, link, application, and traffic data from the same service. With Cato DEM enabled, IT can add deeper diagnostics across the device, network, cloud, SaaS, and application.
