Case Study: George & Matilda Eyecare achieves a fully SaaS-based, cost-saving scalable network with VMware SD-WAN

Supporting a Full SaaS-Based Network Topology with VMware SD-WAN

George & Matilda Eyecare is an Australian optometry retailer that consolidated independent practices into a unified brand with a cloud-based supply chain and patient platform. Growth to dozens of locations exposed a costly, data-center centric MPLS network and inconsistent branch IT—causing high recurring costs, long deployment times for acquisitions, poor visibility, and outages that interrupted patient care.

Partnering with Coevolve, the company deployed VMware SD‑WAN to standardize configurations, remove MPLS, and enable a full SaaS/cloud model with broadband and 4G backup. The migration of 57 sites delivered faster rollouts, stronger security and visibility, greater bandwidth and redundancy, and substantial cost savings (over 114% in some cases), yielding high ROI and a scalable network ready to support continued growth.
