The top-down and bottom-up approaches were used to estimate the market size. After the market breakdown, data triangulation was utilized to estimate the sizes of segments and subsegments.

Secondary Research

The market size of the companies offering SD-WAN solutions to various end users was determined based on the secondary data available through paid and unpaid sources, analyzing the product portfolios of major companies in the ecosystem, and rating the companies based on their performance and quality. In the secondary research process, various sources were referred to identify and collect information for the study.
