Consolidation: What’s not to love?

Lower equipment costs. Simplified IT administration. Fewer compliance headaches. With all these benefits and more, infrastructure consolidation is the clear path for any business looking for more ways to save money and improve service.

Obvious, right?

The problem, as IT leaders know, is delivering application access over the WAN in a way that doesn’t impact user productivity. All too often, latency and chatty protocols can slow WAN application performance to the point that a simple operation, such as accessing or saving common office files, becomes a game of “hurry up and wait.”
