# **Five Managed SD-WAN Trends to Watch in 2023**

**Tuesday, July 11  
10 a.m. Pacific | 1 p.m. Eastern**

With enterprises’ multi-cloud architectures, Zero Trust security models, and internet-based wide-area networks (WANs), network transformation with software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) has become more important than ever. Early adopters of SD-WAN took a do-it-yourself approach with implementing the technology, but today, most enterprises consume SD-WAN as a managed service. 

New Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) research reveals that companies are more successful with SD-WAN transformation when they consume the technology as a managed service. How can an IT organization know if it is choosing the right managed service, though?

Join industry-leading IT analyst research firm EMA, top SD-WAN vendor Juniper Networks, and managed services provider ConnX to discover the five things you need to know about the power of a managed SD-WAN solution. You will also learn more about:

- Why so many enterprises are choosing managed SD-WAN over DIY deployments
- What to look for in an SD-WAN provider
- Tips for optimizing Day 2 operations with managed SD-WAN
- Charting a path to the future, including secure access service edge
