Multi-Site Networking
SD-WAN Built for Every Location You Run
Transform your multi-location network from a legacy cost center into an agile, secure asset. SD-WAN with true dual-circuit redundancy keeps every site online, and our vendor-agnostic sourcing keeps every carrier honest on price.
SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) uses intelligent software to route traffic across multiple connections (broadband, fiber, LTE/5G), replacing expensive MPLS circuits with automatic failover and centralized management. ObsidianX designs and sources SD-WAN vendor-agnostically for multi-site businesses, including enterprise hardware like VeloCloud deployed at no cost.
Key benefits of our SD-WAN services
Dramatically reduce multi-site network costs
Move away from expensive MPLS circuits to transport-agnostic connectivity, optimizing bandwidth and reducing total cost of ownership.
Maximize availability at every site
Diverse transport paths (broadband, fiber, LTE/5G) deliver seamless failover, so a circuit failure never becomes an outage.
Guarantee application performance
Intelligent traffic steering keeps SaaS, UCaaS, and video conferencing performing across all locations.
Deploy new sites in days
Zero-touch provisioning brings new locations online fast, with the full network stack configured before hardware ships.
A foundation for SASE
Integrate security into the network fabric across all locations as a first step toward a full Secure Access Service Edge framework.
Centralized management
One control panel for every location, replacing manual per-site configuration with policy-driven simplicity.
Where it pays off
MPLS replacement
Retire aging MPLS contracts for broadband and DIA-based SD-WAN, often cutting WAN spend 30 to 60 percent while adding bandwidth.
Protecting mission-critical uptime
For sites running cameras, POS, or life-safety systems, dual wired circuits with automatic failover keep operations running through any single failure, as deployed across HomeBoy Industries' 10 locations.
Branch expansion
Standardize a repeatable network stack for every new branch, store, clinic, or office you open.
Cloud-first application performance
Steer Microsoft 365, UCaaS, and SaaS traffic directly to the cloud instead of backhauling through a data center.
Perfect for
- Multi-site businesses with 3 to 200+ locations
- Organizations still paying for MPLS or single-threaded broadband
- Operations where camera, POS, or phone downtime is unacceptable
- IT leaders consolidating network management and billing
SD-WAN in your industry
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions buyers actually ask about sd-wan, answered plainly.
Is SD-WAN cheaper than MPLS?
Almost always. SD-WAN rides on commodity broadband and dedicated internet, which cost a fraction of MPLS per megabit, and businesses typically cut WAN spend 30 to 60 percent while gaining bandwidth and failover. The savings depend on your locations and current contracts, which is exactly what our assessment quantifies.
What is the best SD-WAN provider for a multi-site business?
It depends on your sites, applications, and whether you need integrated security (SASE). VeloCloud, Fortinet, Cato, and Aruba each win in different scenarios. As a vendor-agnostic consultant, ObsidianX matches the platform to your requirements and has deployed VeloCloud 720 hardware at no cost across 10-site environments.
Does SD-WAN provide true redundancy?
Only if it is engineered correctly. True redundancy means two circuits from different carriers on physically diverse last-mile paths, with SD-WAN steering traffic automatically on failure. ObsidianX validates carrier diversity at every address rather than assuming two bills equal two paths.
How long does an SD-WAN deployment take?
A typical multi-site rollout runs 60 to 120 days: circuit procurement is the long pole, while SD-WAN hardware ships pre-configured for zero-touch installation. ObsidianX manages the full project including circuit orders, cutover scheduling, and per-site validation, with a named engineer for the life of the contract.
