We performed a comparison between Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform and Versa Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Solutions solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution includes features for SD-WAN and WAN such as batch conditioning and optimization."
"The initial setup is very easy and not confusing."
"Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect has high availability."
"I really love the auto-tunnel creation feature."
"First and foremost, it enables the customer to deploy high availability connections. This kind of solution enables them to deploy these HA connections for policies mostly automatically. It's a more automated approach than with other vendors."
"We had several clients that were paying $7,500 a month for an MPLS line for one single 10 megabit circuit and we were able to take that from $7,500 a month down to $500 a month for two 10 megabits circuits that added redundancy where before they did not have redundancy and it gave them a much better throughput."
"The platform is valuable for bandwidth reduction."
"The most valuable features of Silver Peak VX are we can register our customers and they can receive free training and all the solutions features."
"Our customers are very satisfied with this solution. They have not mentioned any areas for improvement."
"The necessary enhancement pertains to the controller segment, specifically addressing the issue of frequent flapping when a link is left. In the case of Versa Unified, if a link experiences frequent flapping within an entire branch, it triggers instability. Hence, it is imperative that the overall routing system is not contingent solely upon the active dial branches."
"It is very easy to deploy. The GUI interface is really good, and the security features are also very good. It is also stable and scalable, and their support is also good."
"Their dashboard is also a good point for us and the customer. The solution is very clean and easy."
"Overall, it's nice and very user friendly. That's what makes it so successful. They give you complicated features but with a very simple user interface, and that's been a big success for them."
"The product has a dynamic VPN feature for SD-WAN."
"The flexibility is a great feature."
"The solution is stable and suitable."

"Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform needs to improve integrations with other vendors."
"The support, which is the direct support from Aruba, has shortcomings and needs to be improved."
"Reporting is something that they can improve on."
"I expect automation in the Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Platform's next release."
"This solution is suitable for small to medium-sized companies. If we have large-sized companies it is better to use Cisco or Palo Alto."
"Their WAN optimization in terms of wireless connectivity doesn't have a very good cellular capability."
"We would like to have better features for path selection. For example, if we know the network is going to go down then we would like to set up an alternate route for data packets in real-time."
"The support from Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect has declined since Aruba acquired them. The knowledge and speed of the agents could improve."
"The support needs to be improved."
"The VPN feature is relatively new. It came out two releases ago, and they're still fixing that up."
"The solution lacks a mobile version where small, manageable platforms can be developed."
"With the pandemic and changing work models, it would be ideal if the product more accessibility options or more diversity within the solution itself."
"I heard about them for the first time just before I started working on Versa. They do have blogs for information, but they could publicize more about the documentation and architecture. It doesn't seem to have that much exposure, and they should work on their customer base more."
"The smaller units lack a lot of functionality."
"Another thing that should be improved in Versa are their firewall features."
"The interface could be simpler."
