SASE Gains Momentum in 4Q 2024 as SD-WAN Revenue Rebounds, According to Dell'Oro Group
Thursday, March 27, 2025
Enterprises Are Consolidating Investments Around Strategic Vendors
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, the global Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) market reached $2.6 B in 4Q 2024, achieving 14 percent year-over-year (Y/Y) revenue growth. The market showed notable improvement, especially within the SD-WAN segment, driven by a recovery from earlier inventory corrections caused by pandemic-induced overbuying. Robust Cisco sales also played a key role in this rebound, signaling a shift toward recovery and increased optimism heading into 2025.
"The SASE market is recalibrating after years of explosive growth, but the fundamental demand for integrated, scalable security and networking solutions remains strong," said Mauricio Sanchez, Sr. Director, Enterprise Security and Networking at Dell'Oro Group. "Enterprises are shifting their strategies from rapid expansion to optimization, consolidating investments around strategic vendors, and signaling a pivot toward long-term, stable market expansion," added Sanchez.
Additional highlights from the 4Q 2024 SASE and SD-WAN Quarterly Report:
-- Single-vendor SASE solutions grew 77 percent Y/Y, significantly
outperforming multi-vendor solutions, which experienced a sharp decline
of 56 percent. Among the top ten vendors by revenue, only
four--Broadcom, Cato Networks, Cisco, and Palo Alto Networks--maintained
a relatively balanced revenue distribution between SD-WAN and SSE (at
least a 70/30 split), highlighting the complexity of penetrating both
the networking and security shares of customer wallet.
-- SD-WAN revenue rebounded to 17 percent growth in 4Q 2024, marking a
pivot after several quarters of slower growth.
-- Security Service Edge (SSE) revenue increased 16 percent in 2024,
reflecting continued enterprise investment in cloud security despite
broader macroeconomic headwinds.
-- Total branch networking spending (SD-WAN and access routers) increased 9
percent in 4Q 2024, reversing recent quarterly declines and indicating
improved enterprise confidence heading into 2025.
-- Vendor consolidation continued, as the top six vendors (Zscaler, Cisco,
Palo Alto Networks, Broadcom, Fortinet, Netskope) represented 71 percent
of the market in 2024, up from 64 percent in 2023, reflecting
enterprises' growing preference for offerings from fewer, trusted
vendors.
