The European managed SD-WAN services market is projected to surpass $1.49 billion in 2025, reflecting an 18.3% year-over-year growth. This sustained growth is driven by accelerated digital transformation, increasingly complex network environments, and the surge in cloud-generated traffic. These dynamics underscore SD-WAN’s strategic role in enabling secure, scalable, and performance-driven connectivity across distributed enterprises. In the past year, SD-WAN deployments have increased significantly in Europe as businesses look to simplify their network architecture and gain flexibility in a distributed workforce and application environment. SD-WAN continues to attract the attention of enterprises eager to leverage the benefits offered by the technology, including faster deployment of branch sites, cost savings from using private and public networks, optimized cloud connectivity, and application-aware routing. Frost & Sullivan conducted primary interviews with leading managed SD-WAN service providers and reviewed their solution portfolios, SD-WAN overlay partnerships, underlay or physical network reach, managed services capabilities, and ability to offer other value-added services. Frost & Sullivan used a top-down approach to arrive at the managed SD-WAN forecasts and managed SD-WAN customer sites forecast to estimate the revenue from each site annually (aggregate of monthly recurring charges for 12 months) for overlay, underlay, and managed services.
