A review of WAN contracts should consider five key fundamentals – reducing communications costs; accessing the latest technologies including hosted telephony and video collaboration; improving reliability and support; maintaining real-time visibility and control; and maximizing WAN investments.

Businesses conducting successful WAN reviews have been able to reduce total network spend in the order of 40% while increasing their bandwidth tenfold.
