For many businesses today, employees are spread across multiple locations. Transferring data between these “branches,” the central data center, the Internet and cloud-based apps is complicated and expensive.

About half of organizations are already beefing up their Wide Area Network (WAN) with help from the Internet. But you need the right solution to make it all work. Cisco Intelligent WAN (IWAN) enables you to reduce costs and complexity by combining network, compute and WAN services in a single platform. You’ll also be able to protect against advanced threats, which increasingly target branch locations, with integrated end-to-end security and a highly secure guest access solution.

This intelligent solution lets you deliver the “it just works” mobile experience employees and customers expect with application-aware services on Cisco® Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) and 802.11ac access points for superior performance.

There are a lot of reasons to rethink the traditional WAN. Join GTRI and Cisco for a technical seminar on July 16 or July 23, 2015, and learn how the Cisco ISR 4000 family forms an IWAN platform that delivers the performance, security and convergence capabilities that today’s businesses need.

Register online for this complimentary technical session at GTRI’s downtown Denver location. Breakfast and/or lunch are included.
