Ooredoo Advances Oman's Digital Economy with SD-WAN Network Solution

Oman is progressing toward its Vision 2040 digital economy goals. Network performance across locations is a priority for organisations operating at scale. In this context, Ooredoo signed a partnership agreement with Fortinet, a leading company in developing and marketing cybersecurity products and services, to provide the new SD-WAN solution which gives enterprises direct control over how traffic moves across their networks. The technology supports consistent application experience, stable connectivity and efficient cost management. For sectors such as banking, government and oil and gas, it provides a reliable digital foundation for ongoing scale.

SD-WAN allows organisations to optimise how traffic is routed across available connections. Whether broadband internet, fibre or alternative links, it prioritises mission-critical applications such as voice, video conferencing and cloud platforms. All inter-branch communications are VPN-secured as standard.

Saied Al Lawati, Acting Chief Business & Wholesale Officer at Ooredoo, said the solution reflects where Omani enterprises are heading. "Businesses are expanding, digitising and managing more complex networks than ever before. SD-WAN gives them the tools to do that seamlessly. This reflects our broader focus on delivering connectivity technologies that evolve with Oman's digital economy."

The solution combines cost-effective broadband with high-performance links where needed, reducing unnecessary spending on premium connectivity. When a connection fails, traffic reroutes automatically within seconds. As networks grow, consistent security policies apply across all sites from a single platform.

Enterprises interested in exploring deployment options or requesting a pilot session can contact Ooredoo's enterprise sales team directly. For more information about SD-WAN Network Solution visit the SDWAN - Ooredoo Oman.
