As we enter this new year and mark off the first quarter of the 21st century, we still don’t have those elusive flying cars we’ve all been holding out for. What we do have, however, are more internet-connected devices and cloud applications than ever before. Today, it’s nearly impossible to function in our personal and professional lives without the internet.
If you’ll permit me to flash back– when Bigleaf was founded in 2012, the wireless market was certainly growing but skewed heavily to consumer preferences over solving business problems. Having planted strong roots in creating intelligent SD-WAN technology, the Bigleaf team spent the next decade building a platform that was unlike anything the SD-WAN market had seen before. Built on a proprietary Cloud Access Network, the Bigleaf solution offered a sleek plug-and-play, cloud-first alternative to the complex, stodgy behemoths that were based on site-to-site connectivity and had dominated the market in years prior.
Fast forward to 2022, when the wireless WAN market topped out at over $80 billion. Retailers, restaurateurs, healthcare organizations, and other multi-location businesses realized that to win in their respective markets, they needed to embrace new ways to provide flexibility and reliably connect their employees and customers to the dozens of cloud applications they use daily to operate.
But traditional wireless options fell short of meeting the needs of the modern business. With complex and costly setup, hidden charges and fees, and unreliable and manual failover, businesses were spending too much of their IT budgets and resources to reap the intended benefits of a wireless solution.
That brings us to today.
