Case Study: Wabtec achieves reliable global network performance with Masergy

Wabtec Put the Brakes on Its Aging, Disjointed Network

Wabtec, a global manufacturer of locomotive and transit products, faced an aging, disjointed network from multiple telecom providers that couldn’t reliably support critical applications like Microsoft Lync, Oracle or its large data backups. Seeking a single, agile global partner, Wabtec — with guidance from ATC — selected Masergy and its global MPLS network to modernize and unify connectivity.

Masergy engineered a customized hybrid solution using its global MPLS platform plus Intelligent Network Analyst and Intelligent Service Control, private line and broadband connectivity, real-time bandwidth allocation and redundancy, and 24x7 operations support. The result was consistent, higher-quality application performance worldwide, the ability to make real-time bandwidth changes within minutes, prioritized Oracle and conferencing traffic, and reliable continuous backups — measurable improvements in visibility, control and network reliability delivered by Masergy.
