Sandler Partners, Bigleaf Networks Do Master Agent Deal for SD-WAN

Sandler Partners sales partners now have access to Bigleaf Networks‘ SD-WAN technology. That’s because Bigleaf just added Sandler Partners as a master agent.

Sandler Partners has a network of more than 9,000 technology sales partners. That includes agents, VARs and MSPs. They sell to thousands of small, medium and enterprise organizations nationwide.

Sandler Partners says Bigleaf Networks’ SD-WAN stands apart from the pack, so helping partners position it will be easy.

Sandler Partners’ Eric Beller

“We are excited to work with Bigleaf, as they have a competitive SD-WAN service model for our partners,” said Eric Beller, Sandler Partners’ senior vice president of sales and complex solutions. “Their unique tech allows them to ensure that critical applications are never down, and allows for the best network performance possible.”

Cloud-First SD-WAN Service

The growing use of real-time applications amplifies the need to get the most out of internet, Beller said.

“Bigleaf helps address this need with their cloud-first SD-WAN service,” he said. “They are also addressing the work-from-home market with their new Home Office solution. It gives our partners another solid option to offer clients to help optimize their ISP performance, especially with the demands that families put on their home internet while they shelter in place.”

Bigleaf’s deployment model allows it to operate outside of the customer’s existing firewall with their onsite router. Customers can get SD-WAN intelligence across their internet environment without complicated setup and installation procedures.

“We’re excited about the opportunities this expanded partnership opens for both of our companies, as we’ve been growing at a similar pace and serving a similar customer base,” said Eric Brooker, Bigleaf’s senior director of national partner programs. “Partnering with Sandler Partners dramatically increases the size of our growing partner network, allows us to bring our unique SD-WAN solution to more companies, and gives Sandler Partners’ agents a firewall-friendly SD-WAN solution that will ensure a high-quality experience for their customers.”
