As a result, SD-WAN adopters have remained chained to their MPLS services, paying exorbitant bandwidth fees just to deliver these core applications. Part of that has to do with delivering a managed services, which requires more engineering and operations than unmanaged Internet service, but thats not the full story.

Other problems, including extensive deployment times (as much as 90 days) and high bandwidth costs (think double or more their Internet equivalents), make MPLS incompatible with evolving enterprise requirements.
