FORTINET SD-WAN: PRIMED TO HELP RETAILERS SELL MORE

The way retail goes about its business has changed drastically in the last few years – the effects of COVID, inflation and a rise in energy and fuel costs have meant adaptation is essential, and the evolution of customer expectations sits front and centre of that.  

Your customers need quick and safe access to your products and services 24/7 via website, application or high street store front, or sales are lost – so, it’s essential to keep all retail sites, from warehouses to shops communicating efficiently and secure in the face of increased cyber risks. And above all that, they must stay connected.

THAT’S WHERE FORTINET SD-WAN COMES IN

RETAIL PRESURE POINTS – WHAT IS THE SECTOR STRUGGLING WITH?

Our Node4 Mid-Market IT Priorities 2022/23 report highlights the challenges that online retailers have when it comes to their IT budgets.

Budget

Of the sectors we spoke to, online retail was the sector most in need of a budget increase.

SECURITY

Security, crucial for retail due to sensitive customer data, is the biggest driver for increasing IT budgets.

PURCHASING

84% of the decision-makers we spoke to think their control of IT purchases has diminished in the last year.

This all points to a loss of control over endpoints and applications, an urgency to strengthen security and the need to efficiently utilise IT budgets by choosing the best-possible tools and solutions to aid a sector that needs results – fast.

ARROWXL

ArrowXL places exceptional service at the centre of all its operations, ensuring deliveries are made on time and with minimal disruption to customers. This requires fast, reliable and secure IT across the company’s distribution network.

So, when ArrowXL’s multi-site network began to suffer sustained outages and the incumbent supplier breached SLAs, it was time to take action. 

  • Secure SD-WAN and renewed structured cabling.
  • Managed Threat and Detect Service
  • Enhanced IT Security with 24/7 capability
