Case Study: Grupo Chacomer achieves 35% lower connectivity costs with Fortinet Secure SD-WAN

Grupo Chacomer reduces connectivity costs by 35% with Fortinet

Grupo Chacomer, a leading Paraguayan business group, faced challenges in managing connectivity and security across its 100 dispersed remote sites. Their low-performance MPLS links and multiple disconnected security systems resulted in limited visibility, high complexity, and slow deployment timelines. To address this, they partnered with Fortinet to modernize their network and security infrastructure.

By implementing Fortinet's Security Fabric, including Secure SD-WAN with FortiGate NGFWs, FortiSwitch, and FortiAP, the company unified its networking and security. Centralized management was achieved with FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer. This Fortinet solution resulted in 99.99% network availability, a 35% reduction in connectivity costs by replacing MPLS with broadband, and a 65% optimization in IT management time through improved visibility and automation.
