What Application Performance Means for Your Business

Application performance is not just a technical issue. It is a business issue. Creating tomorrow’s digital ecosystem of on-demand and real-time applications is key to enhancing overall application performance and creating meaningful customer experiences and business resiliency.

IDC conducted research that explores the value and benefits for organizations using Lumen® Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) and Wavelength Solutions to securely provide high-bandwidth internet connections to meet complex business needs. Utilizing Lumen IP Solutions to provide high‑bandwidth internet connections with continuous threat monitoring and mitigation can help secure your data, optimize application performance and improve digital experiences. This study found that after adoption, application performance increased 40% for Lumen customers.

“If my organization had not added the Lumen circuits, network performance would have gone down. As a result, I believe end users would have been less productive. We’ve avoided a 10% decrease in employee productivity.”
