“We look at the market segments, the deployment models and, and then rank each vendor independently,” Grundemann said in an exclusive interview with FierceTelecom. “Then we look at the key criteria and the evaluation metrics. If you try to boil the ocean, it’s really hard, but if you look at the individual pieces of ‘Okay, how does one technology deal with routing and forwarding’ and you look at ‘How does Cisco do with WAN optimization’ it becomes pretty clear.”
In GigaOm’s first Radar report for SD-WAN, Grundemann took all of the information from the 13 SD-WAN vendors and plotted them onto the GigaOm Radar graphic. By combining the various metrics, Cisco, Silver Peak, Fortinet, VMware, and CloudGenix scored the highest across the four verticals of “maturity,” “feature play,” “platform play,” and “innovation.”
