Even if we run an MPLS network, we focus on selling plain-old IP to
customers. Being a fairly young network, we've come in when cloud is
happening. So a good number of our customers have been dropping their
l3vpn services in favor of IP to get to cloud-based services for e-mail,
storage, backup, e.t.c. Dropping the on-premise servers that did this
for them means they don't need l3vpn's anymore.

The next phase is the SD-WAN approach, where we are seeing lots of
interest, and perhaps, expect one or two customers to bite this year.

I migrated a customer with multiple offices around UK, off expensive leased
lines to DMVPN with two redundant broadband providers at each branch and
that worked out beautifully. Saved them a few tens of k first year and a
lot more after and got them 10 times more bandwidth capacity.

Again they seem really happy with their decision as it gave them insight
into what their network did and actually gave them more management of the
network.

For people who actually need it I can use the likes of Infosim to do funky
automated stuff, but most of the time customers just want good service,
security and redundancy. :)

I have one customer (medium sized medical institution) that has 1 main
office and 5-6 branches that replaced their MPLS circuits with SD-Wan.
They run their network traffic and VoIP phone system over it without
issue.  Saved them a large chunk of $$ too, converting their MPLS circuits
to Internet.  They were able to leverage part of that savings into getting
Internet bandwidth from redundant providers at some sites.

There are some trade-offs.  They lost some degree of management -- mainly
fighting with the SD-WAN devices to make them do what you expect them to,
vs what they want to do.  But they seem fairly happy with their decision.

How many of you have successfully displaced your MPLS circuits for
VoIP/video with SD-WAN?

I would also like to know these things.  

My boss is constantly talking about some kind of magical SD-WAN and how we need 
it.
