Brunel, which has a long-term strategic partnership with Orange,
needed to consolidate and standardize its WAN network. This was
primarily so that employees could use Microsoft’s Modern Workplace,
providing them with the tools to collaborate and be productive
wherever they are. At the same time, it wanted to simplify the
management of its network and improve cost efficiencies while
having the ability to set up new offices faster.
Anywhere, anytime network access Orange Business Services
is deploying a global Meraki SD-WAN solution for Brunel, using
managed internet connections and integrated with Microsoft Azure
Public Cloud. The service will be co-managed by Brunel and Orange.
Day-to-day operational changes can be done by Brunel employees
locally via a dashboard, simplifying management and scalability for
its small core IT team.
“We have an established trusted relationship with Orange. It has
provided us with a 21st century solution that is providing us with
the continuity, flexibility and scalability our business demands.
At the same time, we have managed to make cost savings of around
30% by replacing MPLS with SD-WAN, while giving our employees
robust anytime, anywhere access and future-proofing our network,”
said Stefan de Boer, Chief Information Officer at Brunel.
“This SD-WAN transformation is providing Brunel with an easier,
faster and smarter infrastructure, supporting always-on mobile
devices from a single centralized management platform. The result
is a secure, cost effective network that fully supports their
growth ambitions,” said Nemo Verbist, Senior Vice President,
Europe, Orange Business Services.
