Site-to-site mesh replacing costly MPLS

A US company with five offices paid heavily for slow MPLS links between them. The brief: connect every site into one fast, secure private mesh and cut the network bill.

◆ Findings
  • MPLS was expensive and slow, and adding a site took weeks of carrier work.
  • File transfers and backups between offices crawled.
  • A single carrier link was a single point of failure.
✓ What we did
  • Built an encrypted WireGuard mesh over ordinary internet at every site.
  • Added automatic failover so one bad link no longer takes an office offline.
  • Cut the recurring network spend by well over half versus MPLS.
