Case Study: RingCentral achieves instant remote‑work scalability and simplified network and security management with Cato Networks' cloud‑native SASE platform

RingCentral Moves Internal Network to Cato’s SASE Platform

RingCentral, a leading provider of cloud-based unified communications, needed an agile, cloud-native networking approach to support rapid growth and a work-from-anywhere strategy while keeping IT operations lean. The team sought an SD‑WAN/SASE solution that was fully managed, pre‑provisioned, and easy to deploy and scale without exposing firewall management to the internet — requirements that led them to Cato Networks and its cloud-native SASE platform (including preconfigured Cato Socket edge devices).

Cato Networks delivered a centrally managed SASE platform with pre‑provisioned Cato Sockets, consolidated security, and a single pane of glass for network and security operations. The result: drastically faster deployments (Curato notes it often takes longer to order an Internet circuit than to bring up a Cato Socket), immediate enablement of the full remote workforce during COVID‑19, reduced firewall/licensing overhead, and faster troubleshooting and scaling across RingCentral’s global footprint.
