"As businesses increasingly look for ways to harness lower-cost connectivity without compromising on performance, independent broadband provider (altnet) Zen Internet has expanded its enterprise networking portfolio with the launch of Cisco Meraki services. The company said that its service expansion comes as more altnets expand their fibre footprint, with the offering intended to position the provider as one of the "most complete" software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) players in the UK market."
"Building on its experience in offering MPLS services, Zen's Meraki service - spanning LAN, Wi-Fi and SD-WAN - is designed to allow businesses of all sizes to benefit from simpler, cloud-managed networking combined with enterprise-grade security. Cisco's Catalyst SD-WAN already caters to enterprises with complex, global operations, but Meraki potentially opens the door to a broader base of customers, particularly mid-sized businesses that may previously have been priced out of advanced networking solutions."

The Meraki offering leverages Zen's MPLS experience to provide simpler, cloud-managed networking combined with enterprise-grade security. Meraki targets a broader customer base, enabling mid-sized businesses that were previously priced out of advanced networking to access modern solutions. Pairing SD-WAN with lower-cost altnet connectivity aims to cut organisational IT costs while protecting against rising cyber threats. The portfolio supports flexible deployment options from lighter-touch Wi-Fi or LAN upgrades to full-stack, integrated enterprise solutions, complementing Catalyst SD-WAN for complex environments.
