What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

The best aspect of having a BigLeaf is the seemless transition between internet providers in real time. If is amazing how the BigLeaf is able to handle multiple ISPs and determine which connection is best for the given practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

There are honestly no dislikes I have to share regarding the BIgLeaf service. The biggest gripe I have is not deciding to get the service sooner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bigleaf Networks solving and how is that benefiting you?

BigLeaf is making our life a whole lot easier by taking the worry of consistent high performance internet away from us. We are a MSSP that runs mostly via the cloud and having a solid internet connection is the most important thing to our business. The BigLeaf is able to aggregate, load balance, and perform QOS between multiple ISPs without us having to do anything. It just works.

The support is also top notch with most calls being answered immediately. Queries are usually resolved quickly and fully. I can say that BigLeaf's support is one of the best compared to what I usually encounter from vendor support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Tabby Worthington of Bigleaf Networks

Kor, thanks for the excellent 5-star review! We're pleased that Bigleaf Networks simplified your transition between internet providers. It's great to hear it we proved to be reliable for your cloud business and that our support was prompt and thorough. Happy to be of service!

What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

The most helpful thing about Bigleaf is that it's very easy to setup and is very reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

I really can't think of any reason why I dislike Bigleaf. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bigleaf Networks solving and how is that benefiting you?

For the business we implemented Bigleaf, we are completely dependent upon the internet to process sales. No internet, no sales. The other thing it fixes is with other solutions, you may not have the same public IP depending on what circuit is up or not. With Bigleaf I have the same IP regardless of which circuit is up. This is criticial for our business because our POS requires activity to come from preapproved IP addresses. With our prior setups, we used a 4G LTE backup and as soon as we switched over to that, the IP would of course change and there was no way to enusre we got the same IP. Bigleaf gives us the same IP address per site regardless of what circuit is up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

Service is what brings us back to Bigleaf Networks. The prices are good, the reliability of the product is great, the benefits are outstanding and most importantly the service is what brings us back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

It is tough for us to get a quote to add new clients or upgrade surrent clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bigleaf Networks solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use SD-WAN through Bigleaf to bond internet services and also for the QOS function. The system allows us to use a single public IP address for multiple circuits and traffic can switch back and forth between them without interrupting a session or a VoIP call. In addition we get alerted if a client has a circuit issue so we can be proactive and get it repaired before it is service affecting to the client. Most times we need to alert them that there is a technician on the way as they don't notice the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

I deal with a lot of vendors for support. In my role, I also deal with a lot of companies to configure B2B communications (EDI/XML/JSON). Of everyone I deal with, Big Leaf tech support is ALWAYS first in my mind of a company that will resolve my issue on the first call and within 5 minutes. They don't transfer me to someone smarter, or take down a note and have someone call back within 4 hours. They are always staffed with very knowledgeable support staff at the ready right now. This includes 10pm on a thursday as well as 3am on a Sunday. Their support is impressive in this day and age. In the five years they've been our SDWan provider we've only needed to call them five or six times. They have a great product and they support it amazingly well.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

It's not free, but it's worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bigleaf Networks solving and how is that benefiting you?

Dual fiber feeds from disparate vendors - load balanced.

Dual backup feeds (Coax and 5G from disparate vendors) at the ready if we lose both fibers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

I have been using Bigleaf since 2015. It has been the best experience of any tech / telecom service I have ever used. The service is incredibly stable. It ships plug and play, and you can literally set it and forget. On the off chance you have an issue, their support team has always been easy to reach and quick to assist and ensure you're back online. They also send proactive alerts if a router is at risk of failure so they can overnight a replacement to avoid downtime. They have even gone above and beyond when dealing with WAN issues that are beyond their scope of support. I have never even looked into another SD-WAN service and strongly recommend Bigleaf to every single customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

Some customers raise questions on the throughput based subscriptions plans. I have never had an issue with this in real world use though. The QoS is exceptionally good and automatically prioritizes real time communications and other critical sensitive traffic. And if you saturate your througput regularly you'll be notified to consider increasing or otherwise addressing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bigleaf Networks solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bigleaf's SD-WAN's strong suit is the same IP failover. You never experience disruption with packet loss or interruption when switching WAN's. The WAN status and performance monitoring provides critical information in troubleshooting ISP issues. It helps avoid finger pointing so you know where to focus your attention to quickly resolve ISP / WAN issues. This saves a lot of time and frustration for everyone.

Bigleaf has been a stable in our portfolio for 8 years, it has proven to be the easiest to deploy SDWAN solution we have found.

What do you like best about Bigleaf Networks?

We put off using SD WAN because of cost. We were able to implement Bigleaf Network for the right price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bigleaf Networks?

We have not had the necessity to be able to utilize our second internet provider that I know of. The beauty is this would be seamless to us and we will not know when the need arises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
